"It was at L'Hotel that the great Oscar Wilde died in 1900. The atypical, aesthetic decor, updated by Jacques Garcia, still manages to pay homage to artistic pomp and splendour."
Frommer's
"Ranking just a notch below the Relais Christine , this is one of the Left Bank's most charming boutique hotels." Full review
