Just days after MEET UP Paris, Hotel Designs’ first networking event outside of the UK, the Delano brand will open its first hotel in Paris. The ‘hotel like no other’ will shelter just 56 rooms, and has been designed by Ennismore Design Studio. Here’s what else we know…
Poised in the heart of the fashion district, located at 4 rue d’Anjou, the Delano brand’s debut property in Paris will be sheltered in a former 18th century private mansion. The Paired-back Parisian design of Maison Delano Paris, imagined by Ennismore Design Studio, has helped to transform the grand building into a charming and chic boutique hotel, which will make its entrance onto the European hotel scene in February.
The hotel brand, which first launched in Miami in 1995 and is now owned by Accor, is all about ‘redefining’ the luxury resort experience together with service and customised guest experiences – known as a classic trailblazer in hotel design.
Maison Delano Paris, which will be no exception among the portfolio of design-led hotels, will feature just 56 rooms including 19 suites, a French-Andalisian restaurant that operate in a historic courtyard and an energetic cocktail bar that will have its own street access. Named La Chambre Bleue in reference to Pablo Picasso’s painting, the restaurant will invite guests to a Mediterranean journey through fresh fish, seafood and other Iberian specialties.
Given its position in the Faubourg Saint Honoré, a vibrant hub of Parisian luxury, the hotel will respect Delano’s history and soul through a personalised and understated, non-pretentious scheme. The brand itself has described the hotel as “a bustling cocoon where guests can be their true self with a smart mix of conviviality and sophistication all with the trust of ultimate discretion. Maison Delano Paris is a hotel like no other, offering a new landmark for Parisians and travellers – a place to feel revived with energy.”
