The special soul ofhôtel de l'Abbaye is due to the meeting between the French decorator Michel Boyer and Gisèle and Pierre-Antoine Lafortune, the original owners of the place, who decided in the 1990s to transform this unspoilt place into a hotel.
The hotel has 44 rooms with a surface area between 14 and 44m² and a romantic atmosphere. The soundproofing is remarkable. The tones used are in pinks, blues, yellows, beiges and reds, with floral and geometric patterns. Each room has a marble bathroom with a bathtub and welcome products from the pioneering French perfume house, Diptyque.
The inner courtyard, hidden behind the lounge, reveals a garden lined with ivy climbing up the facades of neighboring buildings. This peaceful terrace with its typically Parisian charm is one of the most popular addresses in the area. The garden's wrought-iron furniture is adorned with a delicate blend of colorful and unusual fabrics. We just love it!
Facing the garden, the lounge offers an idyllic setting from breakfast to dinner. On the menu: classic French and Mediterranean cuisine, snacks, tasty desserts and delicious cocktails prepared by Denis. At the end of the day, enjoy a glass of champagne by the fireplace.
The staff of the Hôtel de l'Abbaye is dedicated to making your stay unique: Mimi, the room manager for the past 12 years, Caroline, the manager, or Denis, the head bartender, who gives the hotel a quiet and relaxed atmosphere.

The Jardin du Luxembourg, right next door to the hotel, is the most beautiful park in Paris (on a par with the Square des Batignoles), with its shady avenues, statues, flowers and majestic trees. Tip: go early in the morning to avoid the crowds, and sit by the 17th-century Médicis fountain (video on site). Wouldn't this be the most romantic spot in Paris?
