The breakfast buffet is set up in one of the hotel's light-filled lounges on the ground floor. It is American in style and combines a selection of teas, coffees and fruit juices, with a choice of cheeses, cold meats, eggs and pastries straight out of the oven. Just help yourself from 7am to 2pm, 7 days a week. Ideal for a gentle start to the day.

The bar, open from 5pm to 2 in the morning, is very cosy and snug in true English style : dark wood and velvet blending into the harmonious reds and yellow ochres of the walls, carpets and furnishings. A haven of absolute peace and relaxation.

The same impression carries through all the lounges and right out onto the tree-shaded patio : whne the weather's fine you can enjoy a coffee or a drink there. a unique find in the heart of Paris.
