Hotel Litteraire Le Swann, Bw Premier Collection

Overview

Hotel Littéraire Le Swann, BW Premier Collection, is where modern flair meets 19th-century class, all inspired by the literary genius Marcel Proust. Freshly revamped in 2013, it’s a swanky blend of cool air-conditioned rooms and an Art Deco lobby, perfect for those after a stylish city break in Paris.

Location

Set in the historic Luthier district, a short stroll from Gare Saint Lazare, this gem is all about prime location. Reckon you can fancy a visit to the stunning Garnier Opera house, lively Montmartre, or charming Parc Monceau – all within 2km? The Eiffel Tower and the glitzy Champs-Elysées are around 3km away. Shopping fanatics will be chuffed to know the main department stores aren’t far off, and business travellers can zip over to La Défense with ease. With the nearest bus and train station just 150 metres away, getting around is a breeze.

Rooms

Spread across six floors, the 81 fully air-conditioned rooms keep things comfy with individually adjustable heating. Families and larger groups are sorted with extra beds and cots available on request. The 2013 makeover gives the rooms a fresh, contemporary feel while retaining a nod to the building’s 19th-century roots – it’s kind of like sleeping in a piece of art.

Food & Drink

Get your mornings off to a cracking start with a top-notch breakfast buffet in the dedicated breakfast room. And for those after-hours tipples, there’s a bar that has you covered. Cheers to that!
