The Kimpton St. Honoré Paris is an architectural gem, renowned for its art nouveau-inspired façade and timeless elegance. Beneath this exceptional building lies a collection of meticulously designed amenity spaces, where curved, organic forms and a harmonious blend of natural stone, wood, brass, iridescent hues, velvet, and intricate mosaicspay homage to the era’s artistic spirit.
Spanning over 6,000 square feet, the Ballroom is a versatile venue, thoughtfully designed with an acoustic envelopethat provides a serene contrast to the city's energy. The business center, adorned with meeting rooms honoring iconic figures such as Coco Chanel, Le Corbusier, and Eileen Gray, offers an inspiring setting for collaboration.
A standout feature of Kimpton St. Honoré’s amenities is the 3,700-square-foot spa, an oasis of tranquility featuring an infinity pool and a hammam adorned with exquisite mosaics—designed to elevate relaxation to an art form.

During the rehabilitation, the historical heritage was carefully preserved and protected while transforming the building into a 5-star hotel. The hotel features 149 rooms, including 26 suites, as well as a modern spa with a heated indoor pool.
Taking cues from influential women of the 1950s like Coco Chanel and Andrée Putman, Saguez & Dash crafted the design for over 1000 square meters of spaces, encompassing the spa, the Ball Room, and the Business Center.
