He watches everyone hurrying around as if life is a race against the clock. But Monsieur Saintonge likes to take his time. Except when it comes to temptations: then he hurries to give in before the desire passes.
Hôtel Maison Saintonge 16, rue de saintonge 75003 PARIS
A boutique hotel and delicatessen in the heart of the Marais
People come to the Marais to experience the Paris of yesteryear and that of today simultaneously. This is why all of the city’s major designers are located near Monsieur Saintonge: an establishment with 22 bedrooms, each featuring different atmospheres, and all intimate. Its gourmet food section offers a wealth of delicious treats from all over France. After all, the capital always offers the very best.
A mishmash of raw and finished materials, of stone and linen, make Monsieur Saintonge somewhere just as Parisian as it is Provençal.
The Rooms
Paris’ Marais district exists as a timeless bubble within the city. Hotel Monsieur Saintonge has retained this unique feel, from the uniform stone floors to the exposed beams and, of course, the vibrant colours of the flowers on each balcony.
A wilted flower signifies the end of something. But dried flowers are said to be immortal.
The Delicatessen
Hotel Monsieur Saintonge is named after the street on which the building is located in Paris’ Marais. But it’s also the name of a French region looking out into the Atlantic. Synonymous with excellent cuisine, the Cognac region inspired Monsieur Saintonge to include a combination of irresistible flavours in its grocery section. It opens its delicatessen to whoever wishes to sample its fare, whether in the patio or the hotel lobby.
Fatty albacore tuna in olive oil. Calisson sweets from Aix-en-Provence. Orezza, sparkling water from Corsica. And Pierrot Gourmand traditional lollipops. An impressive menu.
Monsieur Saintonge, Adresses Hôtels
Adresses, a collection of Boutique Hotels, a continuum of favorites, guided by the desire to create unique places, each embodying their destination. We dine under the stars on the Butte Montmartre at Monsieur Aristide’s. We settle into a mysterious suite hidden in Monsieur George’s Garden. In Saint- Tropez, we enjoy a cozy moment by the edge of the water on a jazzy tune of Hôtel La Ponche.
They allow travelers to experience the spirit and soul of a city or district. They are an encounter. We are convinced that the hotel you visit is part of your journey, and that it must also tell a story. The Adresses Hôtels are like no other. They are eclectic, festive and elegant.
