Expert reviews
“Martin Brudnizki took inspiration for this 14th-century townhouse from the eclectic creativity of the surrounding Le Marais district, using the French affection for a literary salon as his starting point. The result is a luxurious haven that feels intimate yet flamboyant, intellectual yet inclusive.”
“This is a great option for design aficionados and food lovers keen on intimate bohemian spaces but not the usual Parisian grandeur. Le Grand Mazarin is an ideal in-between, smack in the middle of the spectrum of indie boutique hotels and palatial luxury hotels, plus plenty of opportunities to rub elbows with locals who come to drink and dine.”

All you need to know
Le Grand Mazarin feels like a hidden jewel in the heart of Paris. It’s tucked into the vibrant Marais district, giving you both that buzzing city energy and an unexpectedly serene hideaway.
The design is downright whimsical: think French classicism meets bold, artistic touches courtesy of Martin Brudnizki. The decor is colorful, playful, and full of character, yet every room feels like a little cocoon, shielded from all the hustle and bustle outside.
When it comes to relaxing, this place doesn’t disappoint. There’s a sun-drenched Mediterranean-inspired restaurant called Boubalé, serving flavors that dance between Europe and the Levant.
The bar is equally magical: gourmet cocktails, cabaret vibes, and a private room for more intimate moments.
And if you’re after some downtime, there’s a wellness area underneath the hotel with a vaulted-ceiling pool (adorned by a fresco from Jacques Merle), a hammam, jacuzzi, and a gym.
