Services

Here,

at Hôtel Dupond-Smith, when it comes to in-room service, your wish is our desire. Our massage and beauty care specialists come to you, as do our personal trainers who provide tailor-made keep-fit or exercise sessions. What better way to enjoy your stay to the full, in the utmost refinement, than sipping champagne from our selection on your balcony, or ordering a delicious breakfast, served all day.

Time is a luxury to be savoured in the privacy and comfort of your own room.

 

There,

in the heart of the most exclusive part of the Marais, you will experience two different facets of Paris: one steeped in history, the other resolutely contemporary. Hôtel Dupond-Smith is located in the vicinity of over 120 private mansions dating back to the 16th and 17th century and just waiting to be discovered by visitors who happen upon a hidden courtyard or garden while out on a stroll. Since the 80s, the Marais – Paris’s equivalent of New York’s “Village” – has nurtured a truly aesthetic and artistic spirit. The area is best visited on foot, to take in the cultural heritage of rare treasures, on the one hand, and avant-garde style dedicated to early adopters, on the other. Getting away from it all by dropping into a contemporary art gallery or two (or three), or wandering from the Hunting Museum to the Photography Museum, while you’re out on a shopping spree, is part of the Marais art of living.

A truly inspiring way of life, for Sunday outings too.

BATHROBES

You will find bathrobes designed by Maison Martin Margiela in your bathroom. Their style is reminiscent of the smoking jacket, which inspired that most elegant of indoor garments. In the 19th century, the smoking jacket was merely a jacket worn in  smoking rooms to prevent tobacco odours penetrating the smoker’s clothes, hence the use of the term smoking in French. We would remind guests that the entire interior of the Hôtel Dupond-Smith is smoke-free and that the bathrobes are provided as elegant attire only. Please contact us if you would like to purchase one.
