Hotel Athénée – Sleep in a small Opera
Filed under: 09th Arrondissement, Athénée, Hotels, Opera House quarter
This month, I had the pleasure to visit a newly hotel in Paris which opened its doors early in September : The Athénée. Inspired by the musical neighborhood (Olympia music hall, Opéra Garnier, Opéra Comique), the famous designer Jacques Garcia has signed the entire decoration of the hotel and it appears to be already a success.
The hotel looks like a small opera with scarlet colors, velvet, sumptuous materials, marble, mirors, columns,…
All 30 rooms are designed around themes of 4 masterpieces : Faust, Aida, The Traviata and Don Giovanni. I could note that a particular attention was given to details and despite an atmosphere of the 19th Century, guests can enjoy modern technologies : flat screen LED TV with international channels, free wifi access, individual air-conditioning,…
According to the first reviews I could find on the web, the service is quite perfect and the staff very helpful. Of course it is what you are supposed to expect from a 4 star hotel but so many hotels don’t know what service means.
The hotel has joined recently the hotel selection of Heart of Paris Hotels. You can find all details, photos and rates on their page dedicated to the Athénée Hotel
