Relais Christine: Your Haven of Peace in the Beating Heart of Paris
Located in one of the most sought-after locations in Paris, in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Left Bank, and just a few steps from the Latin Quarter, the Relais Christine is one of Paris’s best-kept secrets. Saint-Germain-des Prés is best known for the literary and artistic celebrities who lived and worked there in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In under 5 minutes walking from Relais Christine, you will find the famous art galleries of rues Mazarine and Dauphine, as well as Notre-Dame, the Musée d’Orsay, and the Musée du Louvre. Now known for its luxury boutiques and gourmet cafes, the Left Bank also offers some of Paris’s finest shopping, cafes, and restaurants.
While you have plenty to venture out to just steps away, this newly renovated boutique hotel maintains a stunning, old-world Parisian feel with endless spaces to relax in. The quiet lounges have been meticulously decorated with stunning chandeliers against a soothing mixture of cool and warm tones from the wallpapers to the rugs. The lounges provide a perfect space to relax and dive into a book, complete with fireplaces, and cozy couches. The lounge is also where you can find a beautiful breakfast spread, served daily, as generous as it is delicious, as well as drinks from sparkling water and coffee to a full bar all day long.
Relais Christine also offers a 13th-century vaulted spa, which provides a luxurious experience. Under the two-story vaults accompanied by subtle lighting, the spa is truly one of a kind. Reservations are required ahead of time to provide a private and comfortable space to energize or rejuvenate. The spa is open for reservations 24-hours a day, and hosts a dry sauna, whirlpool jacuzzi and fully equipped gym.
Then you have the stay itself. With no two rooms exactly the same, they maintain Paris’s Left Bank feel decorated throughout with antiques, stunning marble bathrooms with elegant gold finishes, cozy linens, and, of course, portes-fenêtres, France’s famous floor to ceiling double-doored windows. The rooms are quaint and quiet; just what you need after a lovely day shopping, eating, and exploring along the Seine.
From the flawlessly executed renovation and redecoration, to the impossibly intimate feel in a prime location in Paris, there is no place quite like the Relais Christine. At the Relais Christine you will experience romance in quintessential Parisian fashion in the heart of one of Paris’s most infamous districts.
