Spa Hotel Balzac Paris

Two minutes from the most beautiful avenue in the world, at the corner of two quiet streets in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, the Hotel Balzac Paris is located in an elegant building from the beginning of the last century. Previously on this location was a 19th-century property which once belonged to the famous French writer Honoré de Balzac. In order to reinvent the Balzac with Parisian elegance, Charlotte de Tonnac and Hugo Sauzay from the Festen architectural studio, have deployed noble materials and created an intimate atmosphere. “Le Balzac perpetuates a timeless Parisian heritage through its classicism. It’s a place full of atmosphere, with a history that we have respected and extended. You have to experience this place to understand it,” say the architects. 1930s-inspired décor adorns the communal lounge, lit by a large glass roof, as well as the rooms and suites, some of which offer views of the Eiffel Tower. After exploring the city, a Japanese spa provides a calming break, offering a hammam or a traditional massage.

Plan your stay at Hotel Balzac Paris

Formerly called Rue Fortunée, Rue Balzac changed its name the same year that the famous writer died. He had lived on it during the last four years of his life, in a house on the site of the current Hôtel Balzac, until 1850. Follow in his footsteps along the elegant facades of this quiet street, a stone's throw from the Champs-Elysées. Your stay in the hotel, whose redesign by the Festen architect duo is inspired by the 1930s, may make you want to (re)read one of the great classics from the creator of La Comédie humaine.

Travel through time

Arguably the most beautiful avenue in the world, stretching majestically from Place de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs-Elysées is just a stone's throw from the hotel. Take in its legendary sidewalks, stroll among the businesspeople and elegant shoppers crowding its cafés and upscale stores and enjoy the energy of a modern district that’s rich in history. For an exceptional gastronomic experience, treat yourself to a three-Michelin-starred dinner at Pierre Gagnaire, which adjoins Hôtel Balzac.
