From October 21 to 26, 2025, the French capital turns into a living gallery. Between Art Basel Paris, held beneath the stunning glass dome of the Grand Palais, and Design Miami/Paris, staged in the elegant Hôtel de Maisons on the Left Bank, Paris once again becomes the global stage for contemporary art and design.
Right at the heart of this creative energy, the Hôtel des Grands Voyageurs, nestled in Paris’s 6th arrondissement, stands out as a refined, inspiring address for art lovers and cultured travelers alike.

 

A Collector’s Spirit, Reimagined in Hotel Form

The Hôtel des Grands Voyageurs is more than a stay — it’s a celebration of timeless style and artistic discovery.
Conceived as the private home of an art collector, the hotel immerses guests in a world where each corridor and suite reveals a carefully chosen detail: lithographs by Klimt and Chagall, sculptural works by François Gilles, and bespoke mirrors by Italian artist Osanna Visconti di Modrone.
Art is everywhere here — understated yet ever-present — weaving a dialogue between eras, textures, and aesthetics.

The interiors recall the Golden Age of travel, with rich woods, warm tones, velvet textures, and ambient lighting. Every element invites guests to slow down, observe, and soak in a version of Paris that feels both classic and distinctly modern — a world where design speaks softly but leaves a lasting impression.

 

The Left Bank: Where Art Meets Design

Perfectly positioned between Saint-Placide and Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the hotel offers direct access to both Art Basel Paris and Design Miami/Paris.
A short metro ride connects guests to the Grand Palais, where over 200 international galleries present the best of modern and contemporary art. A stroll along the Seine leads to the Hôtel de Maisons, home to Design Miami/Paris 2025, showcasing collectible design, pioneering studios, and curated interiors that bridge art and craftsmanship.

Together, these twin events transform Paris into an open-air museum: from pop-up galleries and architectural installations to cultural encounters across the city.
And after a full day of exploration, the Left Bank welcomes visitors back with its signature calm — where cafés hum with conversation, and the Hôtel des Grands Voyageurs offers a retreat steeped in quiet sophistication.

 

A Cultural Pause in the Heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés

Staying at the Hôtel des Grands Voyageurs during Art Basel Paris and Design Miami/Paris also means rediscovering the cultural richness of Saint-Germain-des-Prés — long the beating heart of Parisian creativity.
Within walking distance, guests can browse intimate galleries, explore iconic bookstores, and linger in legendary literary cafés that once inspired Sartre and de Beauvoir.

Just a few blocks away lie the Seine River, the Bon Marché department store, and the Luxembourg Gardens — a haven for reflection amid autumn’s golden light.
Design enthusiasts won’t want to miss the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, which this year marks the 100th anniversary of Art Deco with the landmark exhibition 1925–2025: A Century of Art Deco Design — a perfect complement to the week’s contemporary showcase.

 

Where to Savor Paris After the Fairs

After a day surrounded by art and design, Paris’s culinary scene continues the experience.
Just minutes from the hotel, Semilla delights with Mediterranean flavors and effortless elegance; Colvert, on Rue des Grands Augustins, serves refined modern bistro fare; and Bouillon Racine, an Art Nouveau gem, offers a nostalgic taste of old-world Paris.

Prefer to unwind in the hotel? The Grands Voyageurs Restaurant and Bar welcome guests with signature cocktails and seasonal dishes inspired by the art of travel — in an intimate, cosmopolitan atmosphere where locals and visitors mingle.

 

Stay in the Heart of Paris Art Week

As Paris celebrates both Art Basel Paris and the centenary of Art Deco, the Hôtel des Grands Voyageurs stands as the ultimate Left Bank address — an elegant retreat that embodies the city’s enduring dialogue between history and modernity.

Whether you’re here to collect, to connect, or simply to be inspired, your journey through art begins right here — on the Rive Gauche.
