Paris truly is the city of lights, and the Pigalle neighborhood’s past comes alive in Hôtel Rochechouart, an oh-so-chic 106-room property on the boulevard Marguerite de Rochechouart, itself a late-night destination and a 1920s hot spot for musicians, intellectuals, and artists. The hotel’s design by Charlotte de Tonnac and Hugo Sauzay of Festen Architecture builds off of that legacy; restored details include the blue mosaic floor in the restaurant and the glass elevator. The classic yet modern rooms are decorated in a fashion that blends the French pastel classics with contemporary flare.
The rooms are truly impeccable and create an air of luxe comfort for the insider traveler, and while we'd love to stay inside and soak up the room's glam, the true fun is found outside. The hotel’s brasserie on the ground floor has become a favorite among Parisians for its soaring ceilings, sleek banquettes, and classic dishes (steak tartare; au bon frites). One floor below the restaurant, Mikado Dancing is a Jazz-era nightclub that the hotel owners brought back to life as a speakeasy-dance hall; it’s open every Friday and Saturday until 2 a.m. We highly recommend their gin tonics, which are crafted with a house gin that is not found anywhere else. Head to the rooftop bar for lunch and views of the Sacré Coeur, a staple of Paris's ode to the past and it's grand future.
