Hôtel Montalembert is a stylish design hotel on the Left Bank, in the 7th arrondissement near the Musée d'Orsay and the edge of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. A pioneer of the Parisian design-hotel scene, it blends contemporary sophistication with classic Parisian elegance across its chic rooms and its fashionable bar, restaurant, and street terrace — a favorite of the publishing and fashion worlds. Its refined Left Bank location, amid art galleries, antique dealers, and cafés, and steps from the Seine and the museums, makes it an elegant, well-placed base.
Hôtel Montalembert helped define the boutique design-hotel category in Paris, and it remains a chic, sophisticated address on the Left Bank, in the 7th arrondissement at the edge of Saint-Germain-des-Prés and close to the Musée d'Orsay. It blends contemporary design with a quintessentially Parisian sense of style, attracting a fashionable, cultured clientele (the surrounding streets are the heart of Paris publishing).
The rooms and suites are elegant and contemporary, comfortable and tasteful rather than flashy, and the hotel's public spaces — a stylish bar and restaurant and a sought-after street-side terrace — are part of the neighborhood's social fabric, popular for a drink or a meal. The atmosphere is refined, intimate, and design-conscious, an alternative to both the grand palaces and the more overtly historic boutiques.
The location is excellent for culture and atmosphere: the Musée d'Orsay is a short walk, the antique galleries and design shops of the Carré Rive Gauche are all around, the literary cafés of Saint-Germain are close, and the Seine, the Louvre (just across the river), and the Tuileries are within easy reach. Hôtel Montalembert suits design-minded travelers who want contemporary Parisian style and a cultured Left Bank setting.
