Newsletter - 28
May 2009 
The weather has been up and down in Paris, but that's not going to dampen our spirits. We know that Summer is just around the corner!
Of course the weather hasn't stopped the Hôtels Paris Rive Gauche group from being very busy. Renovation at the Hôtel Design de la Sorbonne and the Hôtel Jardin de l'Odéon has been completed and we're pretty proud of the results!
We're also busy preparing the next exhibition for our photo project “A Hotel Photo, An Artist's View”, with a grand opening and prize-giving ceremony on 28th September, and looking even further ahead we've just selected the photographers who will participate in 2010 (and they are great!)
This month you'll also be able to read out monthly favourites: a semi-secret restaurant unlike any other in the city and our photographer of the month.
Hope to see you soon !

Derrière, restaurant in the Marais | |||
|
This restaurant on the edge of the Marais district - with its surprising décor - was a (deliberate) secret for several months, and even now the hype has passed, it's not easy to get a table. We were sceptical to start with and won over at the end! | |||

Alain Greloud at the Hôtel du Pantheon | |||
I've spent a lot of time scrutinising this picture within a picture, and I still can't see if the model holding the photo of the Pantheon is at its summit. How about you? | |||

The Hôtel Design de la Sorbonne and the Hôtel Jardin de l'Odéon by Jérôme d'Almeida and JasonW | ||
We made the most of the winter months by finishing the complete renovation of the Hôtel Design de la Sorbonne and starting a new freshening up programme at the Hôtel Jardin de l'Odéon. And Jérôme d'Almeida and JasonW, our photographers, took some rather sleek photos of both! | ||

The 2010 selection for “A Hotel Photo, An Artist's View” | |||
| “A Hotel Photo, An Artist's View”, our photo project started in 2005, has hit its stride. Every month we show you the work of a new photographer from the 2009 selection, the exhibition of the contributors from 2008 is currently being readied, and with 350 applications the choice for 2010 was pretty tough. We give you a taste of the talent of next year's selection... | |||
