I was reading through HomeDIT today, catching up on their posts (it’s a great blog) and I came across this home which I have just fallen in love with.

Hôtel Récamier is a petite B&B on the Left Bank in Paris, with cosy rooms overlooking Place Saint-Sulpice. It’s six storeys of traditional townhouse, with fancy fixtures, wrought-iron balconies and fashionable fabrics.

Once the playground of 20th-century philosophical and artistic rebels, from the Existentialists and the Surrealists to the ‘Lost Generation’ of […] Continue reading →
