A Businessclass Verified Hotel
Nestled on a tranquil street in the heart of Paris’ Left Bank, Relais Christine stands as one of the city’s most coveted boutique luxury hotels. This historic 16th-century mansion, thoughtfully restored atop the remnants of an ancient abbey, is celebrated for its discreet charm and personalized service. Situated steps from the Seine and surrounded by the storied streets of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the property is enveloped by lush courtyard gardens featuring climbing vines and seasonal blossoms. For those eager to immerse themselves in the Left Bank’s culture, the hotel provides complimentary bicycles—complete with picnic arrangements on request—ideal for exploring iconic sites such as Notre Dame, the Louvre, the Sainte-Chapelle, and the verdant Jardin du Luxembourg, all within a short stroll.
Relais Christine features 48 individually designed rooms and suites, each expertly curated by acclaimed designer Laura Gonzalez. The interiors showcase a sophisticated blend of eras: opulent velvets, custom wallpapers, antique furnishings, and sparkling chandeliers evoke the ambiance of a refined Parisian residence. Some accommodations offer romantic canopy beds, duplex layouts, or secluded terraces opening onto the garden, while others are adorned in classic French Toile de Jouy. Every room is outfitted with contemporary luxuries, including Marshall Bluetooth speakers, Diptyque bath amenities, and Nespresso machines. Guests enjoy serene views of the gardens, peaceful side streets, or the central courtyard. Room sizes begin at 19 square meters for the Cosy Room, extending up to spacious suites of 64 square meters, ensuring generous comfort for all guests.
The atmospheric 13th-century vaulted cellar houses the exclusive Spa Guerlain, featuring two treatment rooms, a sauna, whirlpool, and a state-of-the-art fitness center with both cardio and strength-training equipment. While there is no full-service restaurant onsite, a lavish buffet breakfast—highlighting honey from the hotel’s own rooftop beehives—is served daily in the elegant breakfast salon or delivered privately to your room. For lunch and dinner, guests can savor modern French cuisine at the neighboring Le Christine, or enjoy classic bistro dishes at Chez Fernand, both just moments from the hotel. Throughout the day, guests may relax in the inviting lounges with a selection of drinks, teas, and gourmet snacks. Additional amenities include secure valet parking in the private garage, and for those seeking a quintessential Parisian experience, the hotel’s convertible Fiat 500 S is available for hire.
