Opened in early 2023 in the Six (better known as Saint-Germain or the Left Bank), Hôtel Dame des Arts offers 109 rooms designed by Raphael Navot with charming quirks like a font named after Jean-Luc Godard on the merch and a high bed that lets you store your luggage underneath.

Across the Seine, Casiraghi is restoring a touch of wanderlust to Saint-Placide, the residential neighbourhood where, the designer says, “truly Parisian, very bourgeois” locals still outnumber tourists.

A newcomer to the Parisian hotel scene, Hotel Dames Des Arts opened earlier this year right in the heart of the city’s Latin Quarter, one of the artistic heartbeats of the city and the former stomping ground of legends like Pablo Picasso and Henry Miller. In an ode to its surroundings, the property incorporates the area’s artistic energy into its 109 rooms, all featuring original pieces from local artists, not to mention a bespoke typeface used across all menus and merchandise and named after beloved filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard, a native of the Left Bank.

Just opposite Balliol College, an historic landmark will reopen as the Store Oxford, a luxury hotel, in the spring.
