Book Hotel de Paris Saint-Tropez with VIP Benefits

Augustine and Marcelin Aubour opened the hotel in 1931. Their story began with the Bar du Littoral across from the plot where they would build it, as visitors from Paris were discovering the peninsula. The hotel's name reflected that early connection with the capital and the travelers arriving from it. Artists and film stars became regulars, and that cultural connection continues through exhibitions of painting, sculpture and photography. Interior designer Sybille de Margerie gives the public spaces a Sixties spirit through graphic lines and natural materials. In the lobby, a chandelier made from 3,500 ivory-colored aluminum petals hangs above the arrival scene.

There are 90 accommodations: 52 rooms and 38 suites. Classic Rooms measure 22 square meters and have mosaic walk-in showers. Patio Terrace Rooms pair 26 square meters indoors with a 10-square-meter terrace overlooking the planting. A round-bed version has 27 square meters inside.

The 34-square-meter Marina Junior Suite has an open-plan sitting area; the 40-square-meter Deluxe Suite has a separate living room. Village Suites place the bedroom toward the patio and the lounge toward the lanes. For families, the 80-square-meter Family Suite provides two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom or shower room, plus a living room with a sofa bed. Some rooms connect.

The Dolce Vita Presidential Suite is a 130-square-meter duplex for two adults. Its two terraces include a 70-square-meter terrace with a whirlpool and sea views. A dining room, study and wine fridge extend the facilities beyond the bedroom. Three adapted Classic Rooms serve guests with reduced mobility.

Les Toits places Mediterranean cooking on the rooftop, with lunch and dinner served above the village. The adjoining lounge bar looks across the sea and tiled roofs, with tapas, wines from Provence and cocktails beside the outdoor pool. Breakfast combines a buffet with dishes prepared to order and can also be served in your room.

Le Pationata is the seasonal restaurant in the planted patio. It provides a more enclosed dining setting than the rooftop, with tables beneath the courtyard's greenery and soft lighting. Back in the lobby, L'Atrium is a champagne bar, with seating for an aperitif or a meeting away from the roof. The dining team can discuss allergies and other dietary requirements when arranging a meal.

The Spa by Clarins has five treatment cabins, a hammam, sauna and nail salon. Facials and body treatments sit alongside massages on the menu, with the French brand's products and techniques at the center of the spa. A boutique stocks skincare, while the nail salon handles manicures and pedicures. The facilities form an indoor counterpart to the open-air terrace upstairs, with treatments booked directly through the spa team.

Nouvelle Vague, the hotel's signature treatment, combines a full-body massage with a facial in a 90-minute session. The menu also allows shorter appointments focused on the face or body, as well as longer rituals. Personalized massages range from half an hour to 90 minutes, with the therapist adapting the session to individual preferences. Sauna and hammam visits are arranged by reservation.

The rooftop pool measures eight by ten meters and is reserved for hotel guests. It is outdoors and heated, subject to weather conditions, with the surrounding terrace opening toward the village and the gulf. This is swimming above town, not a beachfront setting. Pampelonne's sand lies outside the village in Ramatuelle; La Serena is the beach address recommended by the hotel, and reaching it involves a separate journey.

The fitness room is also reserved for hotel guests and has equipment for cardio exercise and strength training. A private coach can be arranged for an individual session.

Children have a place in the hotel's village life, with coloring books, a soft toy and child-sized bathrobes and slippers among the welcome touches. High chairs and baby-care items are available, and the kitchen prepares food for babies alongside its children's menu. The concierge can help families arrange activities with partners around the peninsula, including paddle outings and private wakeboarding lessons. In town, the Citadel's Maritime History Museum adds a visit to the old fortifications above the port. Babysitting can be arranged through the concierge. Guests under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

The hotel's Les Clefs d'Or concierges keep an address book that extends from the waterfront to the peninsula. Near the port, Sénéquier's red-awning terrace is a familiar stop for coffee and pastries. Place des Lices has plane trees, pétanque players and a twice-weekly market among its restaurants. These are part of the neighborhood around the hotel, reached on foot through the village lanes. For trips farther out, the concierge can organize bicycle rental and transport, as well as reservations with local activity providers.

A 340-square-meter conference center gives the hotel space for meetings and celebrations beyond its restaurants. It has a private entrance, cloakrooms and a dedicated bar, and divides into three meeting rooms for presentations or screenings. Depending on the layout, these accommodate 15 to 175 people. The landscaped patio can be arranged for outdoor lunches, exhibitions and cocktail receptions, while indoor spaces and terraces host smaller gatherings. The events team coordinates catering, decoration and entertainment, with the setting and layout agreed for each occasion.

The address is 1 Traverse de la Gendarmerie, close to the village bus station. The concierge can arrange transfers from regional airports and railway stations, including arrivals via Nice, Toulon-Hyères or Saint-Raphaël. Road journeys into Saint-Tropez depend on traffic. Paid underground parking is available, with electric-vehicle charging stations. Within the hotel, two panoramic elevators serve the upper floors and rooftop. Luggage storage, laundry and round-the-clock room service support a stay that moves between the village streets and the hotel.
