Dining

Opened in 1885, Les Bains Douches, built and operated by the Guerbois family, became the first and the most renowned bathhouse of the capital. Originally established as a thermal baths, Paris’ Bains Douches was patronised by everyone from Marcel Proust to the fruit sellers of nearby Les Halles. It was a temple; a space sanctified to massages and delights of Japanese, Russian, Turkish and sulphur baths. Customers could choose to swim in the pool or take a bath as they would at home.

Suite

In the late 1970s, this unique place transformed clubbing into an art and rapidly became a cultural phenomenon; the venue became a nightclub where the likes of Andy Warhol, David Bowie and Yves Saint Laurent partied the night away. It was a centre of gravity, the eye of the storm, a crossroads of fashion, media, show business and arts.

After a few years in the doldrums, Les Bains has been reborn as a hotel, with interiors by RDAI and Tristan Auer, and a restaurant headed up by Philippe Labbé and Michaël Riss. In 2011, to reinvent and save this icon of Parisian nightlife, La Société des Bains was born under the leadership of Jean-Pierre Marois
