The Nolinski sits between the Louvre, the Palais Royal and the Opéra Garnier, and it opened in 2016 as a piece of Haussmannian elegance rather than a copy of one. Shaped by interior architect Jean-Louis Deniot, this five-star boutique hotel, part of the Evok group, holds a particular kind of timeless Parisian freshness. The lobby is the moment that makes the case, with a staircase set against trompe-l’œil clouds. A luxurious, faintly dreamlike parenthesis in one of the best districts in Paris, at rates running between 430 € and 600 € a night.
The spa and the services on offer
The Nolinski runs a short but exacting list of services. The Spa Nolinski by La Colline is a calm escape in the middle of Paris, pairing French elegance with the treatments and products of the Swiss Riviera. The four elements run through an intimate space: the murmur of water, a granite floor, warm panelling and candlelight. The treatments are serious, and personal coaching sessions, indoors or out in the Louvre gardens, extend the same idea into the city.
Inside the Spa La Colline at the Nolinski, a 16-metre pool.
From an attentive concierge desk, ready to build bespoke days in Paris, to the 45 elegantly decorated rooms and suites, the detail is consistent. The basement spa is the heart of the house, with its backlit painted-canvas pool, a sauna and a mixed hammam. Michelin-starred chef Philippe Chronopoulos handles the food, and it reaches the rooms through a properly considered room service.
Brasserie Rejane, a room for Parisians
The Brasserie Réjane, inside the Nolinski, is a vast contemporary brasserie designed as a spacious living room for Parisians rather than a hotel dining room.
Around the central room, several smaller spaces let regulars and travellers settle in properly, in a place conceived as a gathering point.
The rooms at the Nolinski Paris
The 45 rooms, nine of them suites, hold a careful balance between timeless elegance and contemporary nerve. Every room is a piece of work in its own right, signed by Jean-Louis Deniot. Refined details such as retractable mirrored doors and subtly adjustable lighting add to the polish. The decoration, drawn from the dreamlike atmosphere of a literary work, creates an unusual mood that helps you slow down. The rooms are quiet and genuinely restful, with an oversized bed and soundproofing that does its job.
What held us back
Three things are worth knowing before booking. The price sits slightly above what the house delivers, and breakfast alone runs to 42 €. There is no lobby to speak of, so the ground floor feels tight. And there is no gym, which at this level some guests will miss.
