Tucked behind lantern-lit doors on Rue de Bruxelles, Maison Souquet Hotel & Spa is a five-star boutique property and part of the Collection Maisons Particuliers. Housed close to the Moulin Rouge and the artistic quarter of Montmartre, the hotel reinterprets the seductive elegance of a 19th-century maison close while honoring the Belle Époque. The design celebrates romance, opulence and mystery, evoking a time when refined pleasure was an art.

Opened in 2015, the hotel comprises 20 rooms, suites and apartments that blend decadence with comfort. Rich textiles, Moorish-inspired lounge spaces, velvet-draped furnishings and marble bathrooms with rainfall showers create an intimate, sumptuous atmosphere. Renowned French designer Jacques Garcia shaped the interiors, transforming the hotel into a lavish homage to hidden boudoirs and private salons of the Belle Époque.
A discreet spa provides a peaceful refuge: a hammam, a treatment room and an almost mythical indoor pool stretch beneath a star-studded ceiling, forming a hidden oasis beneath the hotel. Maison Souquet also features a celebrated cocktail bar and three distinct salons. The exotic Salon des Mille et Une Nuits, the cozy bar-library of the Salon des Petits Bonheurs and the tranquil Winter Garden each offer a unique ambiance for drinks, light dining and leisurely meals—serving breakfast, lunch and dinner in intimate settings rather than a conventional restaurant.

Also part of Collection Maisons Particuliers, Maison Proust, Hôtel & Spa La Mer is a 23-room five-star boutique hotel on Rue de Picardie in the lively Marais neighborhood. Dedicated to the world of Marcel Proust, the property sits within easy reach of the Palais-Royal gardens and the Louvre Museum. Jacques Garcia again interprets a literary and historic theme, crafting interiors that recall the Parisian salons evoked in Proust’s writing.

The rooms and suites are individually themed and layered with velvet, antiques and curated artwork to create a cinematic, intimate atmosphere. Public spaces include a plush library, a bar serving signature cocktails, a Winter Garden and a concealed La Mer spa. The spa concept draws inspiration from the Orientalism of Aunt Léonie’s salons, a setting associated with Proust’s childhood memories.

Dining at Maison Proust centers on refined small plates and desserts, accompanied by imaginative cocktails. One signature creation, Le Temps Retrouvé, references Proust’s madeleine moments and blends Armagnac, Perigord flavors and a fresh Brut Nature Champagne for a layered tasting experience. The wellness area includes an indoor pool framed by classical tiled columns, a steam room and three treatment suites where guests can enjoy La Mer’s renowned beauty products.
