A naughty night at the Grand Pigalle Hotel

Grandhotel Pigalle

The spirit: imagine the Grand Budapest Hotel of Wes Anderson catapulted #InRealLife at SoPi. You find yourself in a furiously neo-retro living space, and an unreal atmosphere thanks to the vision of famed decorator Dorothée Mélichzon: mix & match of graphic wallpapers, old retro pones, wall-to-wall carpets with motifs, a earthenware bathroom...

Beheind the cool and trendy Parisian venueone finds the gang from the Experimental Group (Experimental Cocktail Club, Beef Club, Fish Club, Hôtel Bachaumont…), that is still shaking Parisian nights with addresses that really create the buzz amongst socialites.

The room to book: Number 603, on the last floor, under the rooftops. A small petite 25 m²suite with beams and a fab view on Montmartre with a queen size bed with soft satin sheets, to nestle with your +1. It does not get much more romantic. Special kudos for the bathroom with its super chic vintage taps, its floor in cement tiles and utmost of coquetterie, a «rainforest» shower. Complementary bathroom and small slippers available.
