Baume
Art Deco Left Bank boutique — intimate, theatrical, and slightly theatrical. The 1930s references are specific and layered, not just decorative shorthand.
The Deluxe Terrace has a 12m² private terrace with Odéon Theatre views — worth the upgrade over a standard Deluxe
Why It Matters
Part of the Hotels Paris Rive Gauche independent collection and listed on Tablet Hotels. The interiors are genuinely distinctive — every room category has its own narrative drawn from 1930s culture — and the location puts you between Saint-Germain and the Latin Quarter at one of the most walkable addresses in Paris.
Hôtel Baume is a 35-room, four-star boutique hotel on a quiet Left Bank street in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, seconds from the Place de l'Odéon and a short stroll from Luxembourg Gardens. The whole place is an ode to 1930s Art Deco — think Macassar wood veneers, shagreen, shot silk wall coverings, drop bead lamps, and velvet in deep purples and dusty pinks. Five design themes run through the room categories: cinema, jewellery, architecture & design, fashion, and the 1930s club.
Where You'll Stay
8 room types available
Classic Room
The entry-level room, but don't underestimate it. At 14m² these are compact — proper Parisian small — but the cinema theme makes them feel considered rather than bare. Grey and white striped walls evoke celluloid spools, framed silhouettes of famous actors line the walls, and electric pink quilts land the 1930s reference without feeling kitsch. Views look onto the patio or the Odéon Theatre. Bright walk-in shower bathroom.
Queen (160x200cm) or 2 singles (90x190cm) · 14 sqm
Deluxe Room
At 22m² these are among the more comfortable standard rooms in the hotel. Fashion or jewellery theme, with a decidedly feminine touch — colour harmonies run through every detail. King-size bed standard (can split to twins). Patio views. Bright walk-in shower bathroom. Nespresso machine included — the entry point for in-room coffee at this hotel.
King (180x200cm) or 2 singles (90x200cm) · 22 sqm
Deluxe Terrace
Same 20m² footprint as a Classic, but with a 12m² private terrace with views of the Odéon Theatre. One unit uses the architecture & design theme: shades of blue, black, and light leather, with wall coverings evoking New York's first skyscrapers. Bathtub — the only standard room category with a bath rather than a shower. Nespresso included. A solid upgrade pick if outdoor space matters.
Queen (160x200cm) · 20 sqm
Junior Suite
Thirty square metres on the top floors, with views of the patio or Odéon Theatre and noticeably more natural light than lower rooms. Lounge area with a sofabed (140x200cm) plus a separate sleeping area with king or queen bed. Walk-in shower or bathtub; separate toilet. Nespresso included. The sofabed makes this a workable option for small families or those wanting a proper lounge space in Paris.
King (180x200cm) or Queen (160x200cm), plus sofabed (140x200cm) · 30 sqmSuite Balcony
Also 30m², but these suites run front-to-back through the building so you get views of both the patio and the Odéon Theatre simultaneously. Plus a private balcony. Jewellery or 1930s club theme. King bed (can split to twins). Walk-in shower or bathtub, separate toilet. Nespresso. The dual-aspect layout with a balcony is the best combination of space and outdoor access in the standard suite category.
King (180x200cm) or 2 singles (90x200cm) · 30 sqmSuperior Room
A step up in size — 16 to 20m² — with the fashion theme in some units: shot silk wall coverings in dusty pinks and cloudy greys, feathered mirrors, and bibi hat-inspired lamps that reference the 1930s fashion revolution. Some rooms are accessible for guests with reduced mobility. Patio or Odéon views, with a walk-in shower or bathtub.
Twin (90x200cm) or Queen (160x200cm) · 18 sqmThe Duplex
The hotel's one-of-a-kind room — a two-floor space under the eaves with rooftop views over Paris. The 1930s club theme leans into Asian influences: Macassar wood brown, overstitched nubuck on the walls, a colour palette running blue to orange. A lounge area sits on the lower level; the bedroom is upstairs. The Great Gatsby comparison is written into the official description and it's not far off. Walk-in shower, Nespresso. Only one in the building, so it goes fast.
Single loft bed (90x190cm) · 26 sqmThe Unique
The most quirky room in the building. The sleeping area is just 14m², but it opens onto a 20m² private terrace overlooking the patio — a rare thing for a Paris hotel in this price range. First floor. Jewellery theme: wavy gold-sparkle walls, drop bead lamps, pearl necklace mirrors. Deep purple and pinkish grey velvets. Walk-in shower only. Think jewellery box with a garden attached.
