What if true luxury in Paris was silence and greenery? The Saint James Paris reinvents the prestige hotel experience by offering a bucolic refuge just off the Avenue Foch. This place steeped in history stands out from the crowd thanks to a rare promise: to make refinement rhyme with nature in the heart of Paris. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

A private mansion… and a 5000 m\u00b2 garden<\/h2>\n\n

The Saint James Paris<\/strong> is a palace like no other. Hidden from view, it is one of the only hotels<\/strong> in the capital to be surrounded by private gardens<\/strong>. An exception that transforms every stay into an enchanted interlude. <\/p>\n\n

Renowned landscape architect Xavier de Chirac<\/strong> has transformed the 5,000 m\u00b2 of vegetation into a sensory journey, with rhododendrons, tree ferns and fragrant bushes punctuating the walk. Visitors escape, and time stands still. <\/p>\n\n

Le Saint James, an art of living by women of character<\/h2>\n\n

The destiny of the Saint James<\/strong> is inextricably linked to the women who have shaped it. From the widow of President Adolphe Thiers, patron of the original Foundation, to Laure Pertusier<\/strong>, current Director, the address cultivates an assertive feminine leadership. <\/p>\n\n

When it comes to decoration, Laura Gonzalez<\/strong> has reinvented this legendary venue. Her style brilliantly blends classicism and eclecticism. The result: a neoclassical mansion sublimated by a soft, colorful, almost domestic atmosphere. You’re welcomed here as if you were among friends – very refined friends. <\/p>\n\n

A plant-based gastronomy that’s causing a sensation<\/h2>\n\n

The Bellefeuille<\/strong> restaurant, recently awarded a Michelin star (\u00c9toile Verte), is like an extension of the garden. With his vegetal, mineral and iodized cuisine<\/strong>, young chef Gr\u00e9gory Garimbay<\/strong> offers a sincere experience, where each dish reveals the essence of the product. <\/p>\n\n
