A neighbourhood hotel on Rue Frochot — the same street as Lulu White, Dirty Dick, and Glass — that captures Pigalle's creative-artistic energy through a design that places a curated vinyl collection and record player in every room. The hotel functions as a base camp for the neighbourhood rather than a destination in itself: the concierge knows every bar, restaurant, and gallery in Pigalle and South Pigalle, and the rooms are designed for people who intend to spend their evenings outside rather than in. The eclectic design mixes mid-century furniture, contemporary art, and a colour palette that references Pigalle's historically louche character without reproducing it. The bar in the lobby is small and intentional — a place for a quick drink before heading out, not a substitute for the Rue Frochot bars that begin at the front door.
