La Reserve Paris Hotel and Spa

La Reserve Paris Hotel and Spa, Michel Reybier's highly distinctive urban mansion, has all the elegance of a 19th century private apartment, where ultra-personalized services can be enjoyed in complete simplicity and discretion. All around are immense spaces bathed in light, barely muted by the rich fabrics of the hangings. Scattered here and there are beautiful marble fireplaces, and everywhere the joy of vast indoor spaces, typical of Haussmann-style apartments. The noble and generous materials exude a forgotten spirit of generosity. More suites than rooms, a library reserved for guests and their friends, a smoking lounge, a 16-meter indoor pool, wine cellars in the suites, an inner courtyard with lush greenery echoing the landscaped entrance. At La Reserve Paris – Hotel and Spa, you experience the quintessence of Parisian chic in the Belle Epoque.

With its plantations of orange trees in pots and Versailles style planters, the landscaped entrance pays tribute to the Sun King’s Orangerie. The lobby, the interior courtyard and the terrace on the first floor are also well-endowed with plants, featuring shrubs and plantations that change according to the season. The 26 suites and 14 rooms at La Reserve Paris Hotel and Spa offer a refined reflection of the quintessence of 19th century Parisian chic. Rooms are spacious and the atmosphere can be adapted at will thanks to an interactive tablet that controls the TV, the temperature and the lighting. The bathrooms in Carrara and Turquin blue marble are equally spacious and mostly bathed in natural light.

The spa is set around the 16-meter indoor pool and features three treatment rooms, a fitness area with a sports coach and a steam room, creating a peaceful atmosphere where one is finally relieved of pressure and can succumb to a complete disconnect from the daily grind. In a capital as stimulating as Paris when it comes to gastronomy, La Reserve Paris – Hotel and Spa rises ably to the challenge with its restaurant, Le Gabriel, offering contemporary French cuisine inspired by the seasons.
