Located in the heart of the 5th arrondissement, Hotel les Dames du Panthéon is a veritable ode to femininity, where the stories behind these ‘Dames’ charm the guests

The boudoir-style bar and certain rooms offer an exceptional view of the Pantheon and transport residents into the world of some of the most famous women from the centuries.

The third floor pays homage to George Sand.

Novelist, playwright, letter-writer and literary critic, George Sand was one of the most prolific writers of the 19th century.

This woman of conviction promoted passion, defended women’s rights and fought against the prejudicie of an otherwise conservative society. She is also remembered for her steamy relationship with the poet and playwright Alfred de Musset.

Architect and interior designer Valérie Manoïl was inspired by the Château de Nohant, George Sand’s country home, when creating the third floor decor of the Hotel les Dames du Panthéon.

It mixes the classic style of the 19th century with elements of Art Nouveau. The tones are dark, with lots of black, a few touches of gold, and flowery fabrics.

The Art Nouveau inspirations are in the curves and arabesques, heavily inspired by nature., and can be seen in the sumptuous curtains embroidered with flowers, from GP & J Baker

The 19th century influences and the baroque style of the era can be found in the linen and silk bracade, typical of the time, dustributed by Dedar, and in the meshed brass furniture, as well as the bronze furniture handles in the style of Louis XIV.

The immersion in the world of George Sand continues right up to the ceiling. The baroque, flowery wallpaper of Cole & Son and Osborne & Little, used between the beams, directly reference ceilings decorated “à la Française”.

Through this interior design, the architect has expressed both the masculine and feminine side of the writer.
