Historic townhouse with plush rooms, private gardens, spa, and courtyard
"Tucked in a private courtyard in Saint‑Germain‑des‑Prés, this petite jewel-box occupies a 17th‑century former private residence and offers 48 plush rooms designed by Laura Gonzalez, a sumptuous velvet‑clad lounge and an exclusive Guerlain spa tucked beneath 13th‑century vaulted ceilings." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Housed in a tastefully restored medieval abbey, Relais Christine offers 48 individually decorated guest rooms — each different, with beamed ceilings, opulent textiles and period features — and a quiet inner courtyard that reinforces the hotel's time-honored, quietly elegant atmosphere." - Annick Weber
"Set in a 17th-century mansion on a quiet Saint-Germain-des-Prés street, this long-loved, family-owned hotel (opened 1979) is prized for its secret-garden rooms—four open directly onto the garden—and for 48 antiques-filled rooms dressed in Pierre Frey and Hermès fabrics; evenings center on the honor bar by the fireplace, and the Guerlain Spa occupies the former vaulted kitchen of a 13th-century abbey, reinforcing the property’s intimate, historic charm." - Mary Winston Nicklin, Lindsey Tramuta
"Tucked into a 17th-century mansion in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Relais Christine has been a quietly beloved hideaway since 1979, and I loved its sense of Parisian history—48 antique-filled rooms designed by Laura Gonzalez, with four that open onto a secret garden. Evenings often revolve around the honor bar by the fireplace, and the Guerlain Spa occupies the former vaulted kitchen of a 13th-century abbey, reinforcing the hotel’s intimate, historic charm." - Lindsey Tramuta, Mary Winston Nicklin
