In the heart of the Grands Boulevards, the Experimental Group hotel has moved into a private mansion built in the 18th century and redesigned by the architect Dorothée Meilichzon, in the spirit of the Grand Siècle in homage to Marie-Antoinette.
Transformed into a four-star boutique hotel, it features 50 cosy rooms with modern comforts, a restaurant where Italian cuisine is king, as well as the intimate bar The Shell where you can take advantage of the mixologists’ advice.
Giovanni Passerini revisits the specialities and traditional dishes of Franco-Italian cuisine, selecting quality local products. The restaurant’s menu also changes very frequently, as the chef takes into account the seasonality of the products.
