The hotel, a member of Relais & Châteaux, gets its name from the great French romance poet Alfred de Vigny, but the property’s charm is rooted in British culture. The 22 Executive Rooms, four Deluxe Rooms, three Junior Suites, eight Suites and public interiors, all were designed by Nina Campbell and capture the regal allure of the British Empire, brought out by an emphatic use of Scottish patterns and color schemes. Each room has its own singular design strategy, featuring antique and classic furniture. Bathrooms are a study in elegance, with grey or pink marble and mahogany and light woods, reminiscent of the empire of yore. Suites take bathrooms to an even higher level with private Jacuzzis and magnifying mirrors. Public spaces are just as individual in design. The library off the reception area harks to a time past with its rich colors and texture, a prime spot to enjoy a snifter of cognac while perusing a Balzac tome. Hotel de Vigny’s restaurant and bar, The Baretto, combines French cuisine with an original menu of international dishes. The exquisite fare is equally matched by the vintage wine collection under the direction of the restaurant’s sommelier. Once a week, guests can enjoy a romantic meal accompanied by the sounds of Helene Silvie’s harp. Culturally, Hotel de Vigny is surrounded by a bevy of the museums, monuments and art galleries for which Paris is famous. Special Offer Romantic offer from 490. One night stay, one dinner for two at the Baretto (excl. drinks), half bottle of Champagne, flowers, buffet breakfast or brunch, a prestigious Bernardaud gift. Rates per room, per night, subject to availability. JUNIOR SUITES (top) are furnished with antiques. Executive Rooms (left) are cozy and comfortable.
