Les Bains Paris 5.51

Once a public spa in the 1880's, Les Bains Douches became Paris' bona fide den of celebrity-studded iniquity in the 1980's.

The famed nightclub received everyone from David Bowie, Karl Lagerfeld, Andy Warhol, Jean Paul Gaultier and Naomi Campbell to name but a few, as a young Philippe Starck took to the décor.

In 2015, Jean-Pierre Marois assembled a cast of internationally respected designers, creatives and chefs to breathe new life into Les Bains at once as hotel, restaurant, bar and nightclub/concert venue.

Today, guests enjoy sunlight balconies in luxurious suites by architect Vincent Bastie and designers Tristan Auer and Denis Montel. Philippe Starck’s original black-and-white dance-floor tiles frame the dramatic dining room and bar, whilst private dining can be had in what used to be a water tank.

It's precisely the type of hotel where you can enjoy the best of Paris, without ever having to leave the property.
