Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants brings heartfelt luxury to the City of Light
Ushering in creative flair and heartfelt service to a 1917 Art Nouveau building, Kimpton St Honoré Paris has officially opened its doors. This is the first opening in France for IHG Hotels & Resorts’ luxury boutique brand. Located in the Opera district, the new hotel is a stone’s throw from Place Vendôme, the Paris Opera, Faubourg St Honoré and the Tuileries Gardens.
French architect and interior designer Charles Zana has thoughtfully transformed the former 1900s “Samaritaine de Luxe” department store into a sophisticated and easy-going luxury space. Influenced by the 1930s Art Deco scene, the 123 guest rooms and 26 suites are inspired by Parisian apartments with balconies, floor to ceiling windows and carefully selected works of art adding a splash of Kimpton’s bold design and Parisian chic to the hotel’s interiors. The building’s striking original staircase and wooden elevator have been restored as standout features of the hotel. And as with all Kimpton hotels, bikes are available for guests to borrow to explore the city.
“Paris is renowned for its art, design and rich culture which is why it’s a great location for the newest Kimpton opening a global flagship. Kimpton St Honoré Paris brings a new luxury offering to Paris – defying traditional boundaries with quiet confidence, easy-going elegance and the light-heartedness of Parisian chic,” said Christophe Laure, Area General Manager, IHG Hotels & Resorts.
