Hôtel du Petit Moulin
29 rue de Poitou, 3rd
Within striking distance of the Musée Picasso and the trendy shops on and around rue Charlot, this listed façade masks what was once the oldest boulangerie in Paris, restored as a boutique hotel by Nadia Murano and Denis Nourry. They recruited fashion designer Christian Lacroix for the decor, and the result is a riot of colour, trompe l’oeil effects and a savvy mix of old and new. Each of its 17 exquisitely appointed rooms is unique, and three feature drawings from Lacroix’s sketchbook.
