The Hotel du Continent, a beautiful 3 star establishment located in the heart of Paris, offers every guest an exclusive welcome, warm hospitality and personalised services. Its incredible decor, with each floor being different and distinctive, also invites everyone who stays here to partake in a unique experience: a trip around the world in 2 poles, 5 continents, 25 rooms and a myriad of ornamental details as attractive as they are refined.
Out of the creative soul of the globe-trotting Christian Lacroix comes a unique style, both ethnically inspired and very fashionable, which combines shimmering fabrics and embroidery inspired by faraway lands, rare or exquisite materials, fine furniture, objects of curiosity, the charming charts, maps and globes of yesteryear, and frescoes luminous with the myriad colours of the world.
The favourite themes of the world-famous French Designer, who here conjures up a fascinating blend of exoticism and contemporary creativity, are all combined in this establishment to produce the ambience of a time-lost cartography. With a destination that changes from floor to floor, the Hotel du Continent is a beautiful hymn to a journey that brings all the beauty of the world to Paris.
