Le Charmant
Boutique Hotel in Saint-Ouen
This former family residence, built in 1885 and a reference point for Saint-Ouen’s inhabitants ever since, is now Le Charmant, a four-star boutique hotel where everyone will feel at home. It has now been lovingly restored, and features 20 timeless, charming bedrooms and a secret garden filled with light. This is now a place where past and present intertwine to create a sought-after escape from the hustle and bustle of Paris.
Once surrounded by vineyards and fields of asparagus, this place has stood the test of time, through the changing seasons. Passed down, with love, from one generation to the next, the house has now become a charming hotel, a reinvention that has preserved the essence of the place intact.
Accommodation
The Bedrooms
Inside Hotel Le Charmant, every bedroom tells a story: each offers a journey through time. This delightful hotel on the outskirts of Paris has been harmoniously redesigned to create three accommodation spaces, without altering the essential character of the building. The former stables now house eight charmingly retro sanctuaries, their energy and character a result of combining a vintage feel with vibrant colours. The barn bedrooms are filled with light, thanks to the large bay windows that offer a relaxing view of the garden.
In the main building, past and present blend harmoniously. Mouldings, marble fireplaces and antiques sit alongside contemporary décor. Three moods are united in the same elegant and tranquil setting, making every night a soothing interlude.
Dining
The restaurant
Beneath historic decorated ceilings, the restaurant asserts its identity via rustic cooking that pays homage to traditional flavours. On the menu, traditional recipes, rediscovered in old notebooks, offer warmth and comfort. Here, time slows as each season succeeds the last in elegant surroundings that blend painted ceilings with sophisticated mouldings.
For a timeless interlude, guests have two rooms to choose from: the Simone salon, which has the look of a mini Versailles, and the Nelly salon, which is decked out in shades of shimmering yellow with a peaceful view of the garden.
Time for a Drink
The Bar
The former office of the family has become an intimate bar, where visitors can enjoy period décor, a glass of wine, a beer or a cocktail, all created by producers passionate about what they do. The character of this place remains unchanged, thanks to the original wallpaper that serves as a discreet witness to the stories shared over drinks.
A Celebration
Private events
Our property makes the perfect unspoiled setting for your most important occasions, whether personal or professional. Hotel Le Charmant welcomes events of all kinds. A baptism, a birthday, a convivial family gathering: this is the ideal venue for every kind of occasion. Celebrating those exceptional events beneath these historic ceilings, time stands still.
For large gatherings, it’s possible to hire the whole of the Hotel Le Charmant, while for events with more restricted numbers, more intimate spaces are available, including the vaulted cellar, the dining rooms or the bar. When the weather becomes warmer, the colour and scent of flowers fill the garden, which transforms into a lively setting for captivating jazz concerts. The elegant, intimate vaulted cellar, far from the noise of the city, makes an inspiring location for seminars, photo shoots or studious meetings.
A Stroll
The Garden
Let the enchanting peace of our secret garden, tucked away behind the house, seduce you. At nearly 5,380 sq ft, it is a veritable haven of greenery, entirely removed from the hubbub of the city. Here, you can treat yourself to a well-deserved moment of relaxation, lunching peacefully with friends and family while the children play in total freedom.
