Hotel Particulier Montmarte has garnered a lot of attention
since it's opening of June of 2007. The restored mansion has
blends art and and design together in this unusual boutique
hotel in the bohemian district of Montmarte in Paris. There
are 5 different suites designed by different artists. Rooms start
from $600 per night. A bit steep I must say, but it promises
a unique stay all the same.
The room “Tree with ears” has been designed by Pierre Fichefeux,
a young illustrator and art director working for various venues
including La Fabrica (Benetton’s creative laboratory). I really love
the dark richness of the room with the unusual black headboard
and sofa.
Dramatic bathroom area with gilt
finishes and glimmering gold.
Martine Aballéa, contemporary artist, born in New York,
works in Paris. She designed the "Vegetal room" to have
guests feel as if they were suspended in a garden or amidst
trees. I think she rather did a good job of it.
The “Vitrine room” by Philippe Mayaux, painter and
sculptor, and artist. I think his pieces look edible!
The room “Curtain of hair” by artist and photographer
Natacha Lesueur. A bit unusual, although I do love the
clawfoot bathtub.
You would never guess how modern the salon is - filled
with midcentury modern treasures and furnishings.
Quite sleek I would say. Love how glossy the chairs are.
It isn't often that you see black walls including the door
painted in matte black. I'm more used to seeing it in glossy
or lacquered finish. The Matte finish is quite nice.
No mansionette is complete without a beautiful
No mansionette is complete without a beautiful
garden to dine in. This boutique hotel's gardens
do not disappoint.
