Categories : Visit Paris, Hotel, published on : 10/10/26
Looking for a different way to experience Paris? For a weekend, leave contemporary Paris behind and rediscover the elegance and glamour of another era. Cinemas, legendary cafés, flea markets and vintage settings still make it possible to enjoy a delightfully retro escape in the French capital.
Begin Your Journey at the Platine Hôtel
From the moment you arrive at the Platine Hôtel, you will feel as though you have stepped into another era. Inspired by the glamour of 1950s Hollywood and its most famous platinum blonde, the hotel combines vibrant colours, cinematic references, retro furniture and contemporary design.
Its 46 rooms explore this universe through different inspirations, including Hollywood, iconic colours, fragrances and references to the golden age of cinema.
The perfect atmosphere for beginning a weekend dedicated to all things vintage.
Rediscover Paris Through the Eyes of Cinema Lovers
Continue your journey in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, a neighbourhood closely associated with Parisian artistic and cinematic history.
The Saint-Germain-des-Prés cinema, which reopened in 2026, celebrates this heritage with its Art Deco atmosphere and programme dedicated to independent and arthouse cinema. In October 2026, it notably celebrates the French New Wave and photographer Raymond Cauchetier.
Complete your day by browsing the booksellers along the Seine, exploring historic bookshops or searching for vintage treasures before stopping at one of the legendary cafés of the Left Bank.
Extend the Experience at the Platine Hôtel
Back in the 15th arrondissement, your journey through time continues.
Settle in at the Honesty Bar or enjoy the wellness area, complete with sauna and hammam, to unwind at the end of the day.
Between 1950s Hollywood and modern-day Paris, the Platine Hôtel transforms a simple weekend in the capital into a timeless escape, perfect for lovers of cinema, design and retro atmospheres.
