The spirit

Just a few steps from Place Vendôme and Opéra Garnier, in the heart of Paris’s most beautiful neighborhoods, Maison Athénée offers an intimate and luxurious escape for an exceptional Parisian stay.

Every corner of the elegant small living room and stylish smoking room expresses the creativity of Jacques Garcia. The 20 rooms at Maison Athénée are romantic cocoons, each with a spacious bathroom. Beyond the elegance of the place, the calming atmosphere is what strikes you first.

In the heart of a vibrant capital, Maison Athénée is a haven of peace conducive to tranquillity and dreams.

The decorator

An interior designer and born aesthete, Jacques Garcia is one of the world’s greatest designers. From Tokyo to Los Angeles, Marrakech to Doha, via New York, London, and Paris, he leaves his unmistakeable imprint and unrivalled talent across the globe in mythical hotels, the greatest palaces, and splendid private homes.

Disregarding trends and favouring sophistication, elegance, and warmth, his flair is instantly recognisable. A loyal partner of Collection Maisons Particulières from its inception, Jacques Garcia also designed Maison Athénée and Maison Souquet, to which he now adds the unparalleled flair of Maison Proust.

The Collection

The Maisons Particulières Collection is composed of hotels designed as elegant private mansions. Confidential and intimate, they reflect the spirit and soul of Paris. Favoring refined luxury over ostentation, the houses invite you to experience an extraordinary home, surrounded by the benevolent presence of a service that combines discretion and discernment.
Maison Souquet, on the outskirts of Montmartre, a former Belle Epoque pleasure house transformed into a small palace, and Maison Proust, in the heart of the Marais, reminiscent of the aristocratic salons of the Belle Epoque, belong to the Maisons Particulières Collection.
