Sofitel Paris Le Faubourg

Location Le Faubourg In the heart of the ever-fashionable Saint-Honoré quarter, 500m from the Champs-Elysées and 1.5km from La Bourse, this comfortable hotel is perfectly situated for business trips topped and tailed with gratuitous sightseeing and some sod-the-budget shopping. For the unladen or the déclassé, the nearest metro is at Place de la Concorde, about 100m away.
Le Faubourg occupies two buildings dating back from the 18th and 19th centuries which used to house the Hotel St Honoré and the Marie-Claire group. The architect Richard Martinet and the designer Pierre-Yves Rochon have worked closely together to mantain the classic charm of the original building whilst adding modern and functional features.
The most successful is the bathrooms, which have huge, loft-like, wrought-iron and glass doors, great lighting, glass showers with dinner-plate showerheads and marble-encased tubs.
Our hotel room, Sofitel Le Faubourg
Guestrooms The 147 rooms, including 22 new suites, are all bold colours and classic with a modernish twist, with decent beds and flat-screen TVs. All have marble bathrooms and Hermès toiletries; some have small terraces. The new suites designed by Didier Gomez are all gold and grey and feature a melange of textures, fabrics and shapes, and a fusion of traditional French décor and pop art. The burnished price tag also gets you an espresso machine, a Bose system with iPod dock and free minibar.
At night, the magnificent 1950s style chandelier illuminates a large bouquet of white flowers placed on a mohogany console. A discreet and smiling bellboy in elegant attire is on hand between reception and the concierge desk. The friendly and elegant restaurant overlooking the courtyard garden provides a warm and cosy atmosphere with a touch of the french world of couture. The Café Faubourg offers healthy, contemporary and authentic food. Our chef Fabrice Dubos, which was trained by Alain Dutournier, creates traditional dishes.
two words which best define the lobby, the centrepiece of the hotel. Built as a large and comfortable open space, this forms the central meeting point of the hotel, allowing direct access to rooms, the Restaurant, Bar30 and the Library. The lobby is directly lit by natural daylight through the encompassing large glass ceiling.
