Hôtel Blanca

Hôtel Blanca opened in 2026 in the building that was Hôtel Gaston, facing the Promenade Pereire in the 17th arrondissement a few minutes from Batignolles. Mariette Sans Rival, who trained as a painter at the Beaux-Arts and worked as a costume designer for film and opera, drew the interiors from the French New Wave.

She painted the artworks above the headboards herself, for this house. There are 43 rooms over six floors, a sauna lined in red terracotta terrazzo, and a work room open to anyone who orders a drink. Blanca holds Green Key certification and runs without single-use plastic.
