Saint James Paris

A château-hotel in the heart of Paris

Saint James Paris occupies a remarkable 19th-century mansion, often described as the city's only true château-hotel. Behind its ornate gates, the property unfolds with the codes of a private members' club reimagined as a hotel: grand staircases, intimate lounges and a sense of quiet privilege. The 5-star setting suits LGBTQ+ guests looking for elegance without ostentation, with discreet and attentive service throughout the stay.

The atmosphere blends classical French heritage with bold contemporary touches. Public spaces feel layered and curated, ideal for a romantic weekend, an anniversary or a stylish solo escape in Paris.

The 16th arrondissement and Parisian landmarks

Set in the residential 16th arrondissement, Saint James Paris is just a short walk from the Arc de Triomphe and the upper reaches of the Champs-Élysées. The Bois de Boulogne, Trocadéro and the museums of avenue du Président-Wilson are all close by, making the location ideal for travellers who prefer a calmer base while remaining well connected to central Paris.

The Marais, historic heart of Paris's LGBTQ+ scene with its bars, cafés and queer-owned boutiques, is easily reached by metro or taxi. Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower are also within a quick ride, allowing guests to alternate between refined seclusion and the city's most vibrant districts.

Refined rooms, garden and signature bar

Categories vary, and certain accommodations may open onto the private garden or offer views over the leafy grounds. The property is known for its lush outdoor space, a true rarity in central Paris and a peaceful setting for breakfast or an aperitif.

Guests can also enjoy a celebrated library bar, with thousands of books lining the walls, as well as a gastronomic restaurant led by an acclaimed chef. A spa area completes the experience, offering treatments and wellness facilities in keeping with the hotel's 5-star standing.

An ideal stay for couples and discerning travellers
