The Hotel Montalembert, long a historic landmark on the Left Bank
of Paris, was built in 1926 and re-opened in October 1990 after
nearly a year-long, million dollar restoration and refurbishment.
HistoryThe Hotel Montalembert was named after Charles Forbes Montalembert,
the famous politician, writer and member of the prestigious Academie Francaise.
In 1989, the hotel was purchased by Grace Leo-Andrieu and her husband Stephane,
who undertook the meticulous refurbishment of the hotel's 56 rooms and suites.
The Hotel is situated on the left bank's Rue Montalembert.
Open 7 days a week, the Restaurant welcomes you for breakfast. Its
tasty & inventive cuisine is served continuously from 12 to 10pm. The Bar
is open until midnight and proposes a wide range of Champagnes by the glass, an
extensive whisky menu and creative cocktails. Everyday, Tea Time offers a rich
selection of world teas complemented perfectly by “artisanale” and inventive
sweets.
The Salon Gallimard, which owes its name to its large collection of
books from the nearby publishing house, remains the corner to see without being
seen, it can be privatised for intimate private parties for up to 9 people. Its
cosy atmosphere is complemented by a large log fire, which burns during the
winter months.
With oversized “Alice in Wonderland” style banquettes and imposing square
planters in African Assamella wood, the terrace welcomes you in the warmer
months. Enjoy the scene on rue de Montalembert, where it is quite easy to sit
all day and watch Parisian life roll past.
