Designer gem on the Left Bank
Located on the Left Bank, near the Luxembourg Garden, Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Montparnasse, the 3-star Hotel Le Chaplain Rive Gauche is a classy Paris designer hotel based on the philosophy of smile. Apart from the smile you are welcomed with, there is an internationally recogniseable smile in each room, painted by Fabienne Santrot De Courrière, using the unique ‘grisaille technique’.
The hotel was fully renovated in 2008 by Michel Jouannet, an architect and interior designer, creating a distinctively modern and chic atmosphere. Contemporary artwork is displayed throughout the hotel, and a furnished inner patio with an olive tree provides a tranquil green oasis. Hotel Chaplain is truly a real gem, a classy and unique retreat in the center of Paris.
Will you choose Brigitte, Marilyn or the Mona Lisa?
“The grisaille technique is painting that incorporates shadow and light often through the use of muted shades. The core of De Courrière’s grisaille work arises through orders placed by interior decorators and individuals, but the artist also works with London and California dealers which sell the grisailles on canvass.”
