Why DNA Hotels Loves It

A Grand Arrival
Occupying a beautifully restored Haussmann building just off the Champs-Élysées, Monsieur George feels worlds away from the bustle outside. Behind its elegant stone façade lies one of Paris’s most distinctive boutique hotels, where Anouska Hempel’s unmistakable design language transforms every room into an immersive theatrical experience. Rather than following contemporary trends, the hotel embraces timeless glamour with extraordinary confidence. Luxury here feels deeply personal. Never predictable.
The Signature of Anouska Hempel
Few designers have shaped boutique hospitality as profoundly as Anouska Hempel. At Monsieur George, she layers Art Deco geometry with Asian-inspired opulence, mirrored surfaces, rich velvets, sculptural lighting, embroidered textiles, and bespoke furnishings. Every space carries her signature sense of drama while remaining remarkably intimate, creating interiors that feel cinematic without ever becoming overwhelming. Mystery is part of the design. As much as beauty.
Rooms with Their Own Story
Each room is conceived as an individual narrative. Some pay tribute to Benjamin Franklin, others reference the gardens of Château de Marly or the Duke of Windsor, yet all share the same attention to craftsmanship and atmosphere. Soft palettes, luxurious fabrics, carefully framed rooftop views, and unexpected decorative details create guestrooms that feel closer to elegant private apartments than conventional hotel suites. No room repeats another. Each has its own personality.
A Hidden Sanctuary
At the centre of the hotel, a secluded courtyard garden offers a welcome sense of calm. Carefully clipped topiary, lush planting, and elegant outdoor seating create a peaceful retreat from the surrounding city. Below, the Le Tigre wellness space continues the residential atmosphere with treatments, hammam, sauna, and a small fitness room designed around relaxation rather than spectacle. The pace naturally slows. Almost without noticing.
Parisian Indulgence
Galanga brings together refined Mediterranean cuisine with interiors as carefully considered as the rest of the hotel. Throughout the day the restaurant and bar evolve effortlessly from breakfast to candlelit dinners and late-evening cocktails, while an impressive wine and Champagne selection reinforces the hotel’s quietly luxurious character. Like the hotel itself, the experience feels polished without becoming formal. Elegance comes naturally. Never through excess.
Why It Works
Monsieur George succeeds because it reflects Anouska Hempel’s singular vision without compromise. Richly detailed interiors, theatrical storytelling, and impeccable craftsmanship combine to create a hotel that feels both glamorous and deeply residential. It is a place where luxury is expressed through atmosphere rather than spectacle, proving that true elegance never goes out of style.
