Sweet dreams in Paris ...
The Rive Gauche with all its colours!
This small four-star hotel on the Rive Gauche is a rising star: La Belle Juliette, an homage to Juliette Récamier – a 19th century heroine, also famous for her exceptional beauty, sentimental escapades and legendary entertaining – has opened its doors last autumn. Corinne and Pascal Moncelli, the hotel owners, decided to revive this slumbering place in the rue du Cherche Midi. And we have to say that they have definitely succeeded. We adore the smart tasteful decoration that transports you back to the time of Juliette Récamier, its cosy Spa and, most of all, its secret terrace far from the noise of Saint Germain. A jewel to put in your address book straightaway!
