The Cour Des Vosges Hotel is a 5-star luxury boutique hotel in the heart of Paris that instantly invites its guests to immerse themselves in the life of a noble French family dating back to the 16th century. This family of art lovers and collectors has for decades been collecting sculptures, ceramics, tapestries, and furniture representing various artistic trends and the experience of generations of patrons of the arts.
What makes the Cour des Vosges truly unique is its design. The interior designers, Jan Le Coadic and Alessandro Scotto, turned to the history of Paris and explored the past like archaeologists to uncover its beauty, uniqueness, and power. They dealt with a historical landmark with original painted ceiling beams and antique terracotta floors and made the main theme of their design to protect, preserve, and respect the authenticity and spirit of the building. They used the same method of work when designing a luxury store, an apartment in the gardens of the Palais Royal, or a 5-star hotel on the Place Des Vosges. They know how to create, construct, and write a completely new modern story for each of their projects, which is a human approach to their profession.

“Elegance and dissimilarity are expressed in the selection of personal and exclusive offers: design, special service, selected publications in the library or a boat ride on the Seine.”
The Cour Des Vosges also features curated collections of books and art that reflect the same attention to detail and authenticity as the design. Anatole Desachi, an independent bookseller in Fontainebleau, curated all the books presented in the rooms and suites. He specializes in buying and selling books with photographs and visits exhibitions and museums all over Europe in search of rare finds, creating an exclusive selection. Amelie du Chalard, a lover of contemporary art and a gallery owner and art director, curated the collection of art throughout the hotel. Her choice corresponded to the approach of the architects, who boldly combined the classic style of Louis XIII with the design of the 1970s.
The music at the hotel is also curated by Fred Victor, the founder and creative director of Entertice’s bespoke music design studio, Sound Couturier, who creates a multicolored, diverse musical identity that echoes the sounds of Paris and is a tempting invitation to travel.

“A few steps away from Cour des Vosges, climb aboard an Italian, in the pure tradition of Riva and Chris craft.”
The boutique Hotel Cour des Vosges, located in a 17th-century mansion, combines modern art, environmentally friendly technologies and an unusual interior. It offers a first-class spa and restaurants. The interior was created by Jan La Coadich and Alessandro Scotto. It is a stunning blend of modern and historical influences, while some interior elements, such as fragments of woodwork, have been preserved in their authentic form. The attention paid to the most insignificant nuances is evident in the ultra-modern bathrooms equipped with the latest technology, works of art, handmade furniture and thematic novels in each room. Each room is a separate piece of interior art and is among the most luxurious apartments in Paris. The hotel is a tribute to the exquisite decor, which simultaneously emphasizes the beauty of Parisian nature and harmoniously combines with it.
Therefore, if you want to plunge into the atmosphere of the art of life and the elegance of a historic Parisian mansion, touch selected publications in the hotel’s own library, a collection of works of art, then this is a unique and art-filled place that combines the past and the present, which makes it a must-visit place for those who are looking for a truly exciting and luxury vacation in Paris.
