Hôtel Da Vinci
25 Rue des Saints-Pères, Paris, France
24 Rooms
Contemporary Classic & Lively
It’s named, in a roundabout way, for its most famous resident — a museum employee stole the Mona Lisa from the Louvre in 1911, then checked into the nearby Hôtel Da Vinci, a small but opulent hotel located just across the Seine. It’s a colorful backstory for a colorful hotel, and there’s a suitable Italian thread throughout — these traditionally Parisian spaces are outfitted with glittering Murano glass lamps and oversized mirrors, with frescoes for the downstairs salons, and the café is patterned after Caffè Florian, the Venetian institution that claims to be the oldest café in the world.
Guest rooms, named after Renaissance masters from Botticelli to Michelangelo, are petite and sophisticated. But not in a minimalist way: the Hôtel Da Vinci clearly subscribes to the “more is more” aesthetic. Rooms are individually decorated with period furniture, like the 16th-century chairs, and details like blown-glass lamps, gilded mirrors, wall frescoes based on Da Vinci’s sketches, fluffy goose down comforters, and old-fashioned rotary telephones. Bathrooms have rainfall showers, towel heaters, and products by Roberto Cavalli. About half of the rooms have private balconies; you can see the Louvre from a few of them. For the ultimate experience, of course, you could check into the Adorateur room, a cozy attic-style enclave where Peruggia hid out with his smiling La Gioconda in the days after the theft.
Downstairs, though, the hotel’s most unique space awaits: a subterranean “relaxation pool,” lined with mosaics inspired by Da Vinci’s signature color palette and framed by a star-studded archway that evokes the night sky. It’s only bookable by reservation — appropriately exclusive for this ritzy Left Bank address — a detail that adds to the hotel’s subtle mystique.
