HÔTEL DES ACADÉMIES ET DES ARTS * * * *
Hotel dedicated to artistic creation with a video art room, anti-allergy rooms and a tea room.
As its name indicates, Hôtel des Academies et des Arts is dedicated to artistic creation. First, because this boutique hotel is set up in the street of Montparnasse where Modigliani had his workshop. Then, because it is located just opposite the famous Académie de la Grande Chaumière, where Gauguin, Giacometti, Foujita and many others succeeded one another... The building was transformed into a hotel shortly after the death of the artist in 1920 but it experienced a true renewal only when Charlotte, a journalist, and Laurent Inchauspe, a filmmaker, bought it. They gave carte blanche to the painter Jérôme Mesnager to draw his famous "white bodies". When it comes to Sophie de Watrigant, her sculptures adorn the building's staircase. Not to forget the broadcast of artist videos in the hotel's video art gallery. In the rooms, there are four atmospheres, including the one where Kiki of Montparnasse is honored. white silhouettes move across the spaces like ghosts ... A tea room "Chez Charlotte" with a plasma screen allows you to enjoy some pastries from Pierre Hermé's place. The hotel has available allergy-free rooms; It also offers massages and an airport shuttle service using eco-friendly vehicles.
