The are two things first-time travellers to the french capital need to know right from the start: First, it’s a myth that the French live on frog’s legs and garlicky snails. Second, you’ll get your head around trying to decide where to stay in Paris, since there are so many beautiful accommodations and design hotels. To help you with the second part of the equation, today we leave you a suggestion: meet the Hotel da Vinci and fall in love with its interiors.

The Hotel da Vinci is an upscale space, inspired by the Renaissance and, surrounded by several stores. It’s only a 6 minutes’ walk from the Saint-Germain-des-Prés metro station and 8 minutes’ walk from the Musée du Louvre, which makes it perfect for tourists.
The lobby of Hotel da Vinci offers a cosy space, where visitors are invited to drink a hot cup of coffee by the fireplace, sided by two design armchairs by BRABBU, during winter days. Velvet, marble, and golden materials make the hotel decor.
The Paris hotel plays host to a building that offers all the convenience and benefits of staying in a fully-staffed four-star hotel, and it truly has many surprises in store! The top floor houses one of the most mysterious rooms in Paris, while the lower ground floor is home to another highly confidential spot.
The Monna Lisa room, situated on the ground floor, takes us on a journey to Leonardo da Vinci’s innermost world. This is one of the hotel’s most charming rooms, with its pleasant terrace overlooking the hotel’s patio, a haven of peace and quiet.
Honouring the traditional french interior design, the invitingly comfortable rooms are decorated in a style that takes in a great many references, such as a highly typical chair, or a dressing room with curved features, reminiscent of the wardrobes of the period. These elegant rooms also feature themed wall murals.
The relaxation area, situated on the lower ground floor, is arranged around a mosaic-lined pool that reproduces the colours used by Leonardo da Vinci to paint the Gioconda. The star-studded arch creates a perfect cocoon for ultimate relaxation.
