Dauphine Saint Germain

Presentation

An independent boutique hotel in a 17th-century building in Saint-Germain-des-Prés

In the heart of one of Paris’s liveliest and most sought-after districts, the Dauphine Saint Germain hotel occupies a carefully restored 17th-century building, in keeping with the Saint-Germain-des-Prés district to which it belongs. Behind its walls, the atmosphere is warm and intimate, and every space seems designed to welcome guests gently, without ostentation, but with constant attention to detail. Its independent management preserves a personalized, human atmosphere, far from the impersonal standards of large chains: a setting where travelers are received with consideration, in a smooth and welcoming experience.

Rooms and junior suites: comfort, soundproofing and views over the Paris rooftops

From standard rooms to junior suites, the rooms offer an intimate atmosphere, marked by warm tones, refined fabrics and classically inspired furniture. Some feature exposed beams or offer unobstructed views over the Paris rooftops, adding that extra touch of authenticity so many travelers seek. The carefully selected bedding supports restful nights in comfort, while soundproofing preserves tranquility in this central setting. All categories are equipped with adjustable air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with international channels, free Wi-Fi, a minibar, a safe and a private bathroom. In the bathrooms, materials have been chosen for their quality, and the amenities — from the hairdryer to the toiletries — meet the expectations of a hassle-free stay.

Breakfast in a vaulted room, bar and room service

Breakfast is served in a vaulted room with distinctive charm, where period stone meets more contemporary furnishings. The selection combines pastries, cereals, dairy products, freshly squeezed juice and hot drinks, in a friendly, unhurried atmosphere; those who prefer to start the day at their own pace can also opt for room service. At any time, a bar remains available for a hot drink or a more refreshing beverage, perfect for a break between visits or in the evening after a day of exploring.

Hotel services: 24-hour reception, concierge, laundry and luggage storage

The 24-hour reception ensures a permanent welcome, provided by attentive and available staff, never intrusive. The services offered make daily life easier during your stay: left luggage, newspapers, shoe shining, concierge service and laundry. All the amenities are designed to provide a smooth experience, in a setting where every detail is considered for the traveler’s comfort.

Dauphine Street location: Saint-Michel metro and airport shuttle on request

The hotel is located on Rue Dauphine, between Quai des Grands Augustins and the Odéon crossroads, in an area particularly well served by transport. Saint-Michel metro station, just a few minutes’ walk away, makes it possible to reach Montmartre, Gare de Lyon or the major boulevards without changing lines. The airports are also accessible thanks to a shuttle service available on request. A rare location to experience Paris with flexibility, curiosity and peace of mind, just steps from the capital’s liveliest spots.

Monuments, museums and cultural outings within walking distance of the hotel

From the Dauphine Saint Germain hotel, much of Paris can be explored on foot: Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Luxembourg Garden, the Louvre Museum or the Musée d’Orsay are all less than a twenty-minute walk away. The neighborhood is full of art galleries, historic bookshops and small shaded squares ideal for strolling, while the cobbled streets of the Latin Quarter, the façades of Boulevard Saint-Germain and the bridges over the Seine lead to the nearby Île de la Cité and Île Saint-Louis. As for museums, the Louvre and its endless wings, the Impressionist collection at the Musée d’Orsay, the Delacroix Museum housed in the artist’s former home, as well as the Maison de Balzac and the Musée Zadkine, make up a cultural itinerary within immediate reach. In the evening, the Opéra Garnier is easily reached by transport for a ballet or an opera evening, and the programming at the Comédie-Française or the Odéon theatre will satisfy lovers of classical or contemporary theater, among literary cafés, small venues and art-house cinemas.
