Hilton (NYSE: HLT) announces the recent opening of Sax Paris, LXR Hotels & Resorts. Located in Paris’s elegant 7th arrondissement, the 118-room property is housed in a historic neo-Gothic building, boasting panoramic rooftop views. Marking the debut of the LXR Hotels & Resorts brand in France, Sax Paris joins a global collection of luxury hotels in sought-after destinations that invite guests on a journey of discovery and adventure. Sax Paris is owned and developed by Compagnie de Phalsbourg, a French real estate company.
Sax Paris transforms a landmark 1899 building, formerly home to the Ségur telephone exchange, into a refined gathering place where travellers and Parisians come together to connect, converse, and experience the authentic lifestyle of the renowned Rive Gauche (Left Bank). Designed in the spirit of the 7th arrondissement – where art, culture, and sophistication converge – the hotel invites guests to relax and soak up its elegant atmosphere. Sax Paris offers contemporary rooms and suites, two distinctive restaurants, a stylish cocktail bar, and versatile event spaces. Guests can relax in the outdoor pool and garden, and the fitness and spa club provide a luxurious retreat. From this stylish base, guests can easily explore nearby treasures such as the Eiffel Tower, Musée d’Orsay, and Jardin du Luxembourg.
Unrivalled hospitality steeped in Left Bank culture
The hotel’s design studio, led by Karine Journo, reinterprets Left Bank sophistication through a modern lens, uniting talented artists, decorators, and designers. Guests are welcomed via The Galerie, a vibrant social hub adorned with 200 mirrors and Baccarat chandeliers. Beyond the gallery lies the SAX Garden, a city centre oasis designed by Studio Ravn, inspired by romantic French-style gardens, and featuring a heated outdoor pool and jacuzzi. Sax Paris also showcases creations from renowned contemporary artists, including Arik Levy’s crystal sculpture ‘Rockstone’ at the garden entrance and a restaurant ceiling mural by street artist Sto, referencing the building’s historic République Française insignia.
The hotel’s 118 rooms and suites feature a contemporary design of neutral colours and natural materials, including marble bathrooms and wood panelling. Many offer connecting options for families, while others open onto private terraces. Three signature suites – The Studio, The Winter Garden Suite, and The Signature Suite – feature in-room cocktail stations. Minibars are stocked with Parisian favourites curated through a partnership with the iconic Le Bon Marché’s La Grande Épicerie de Paris.
Sax Paris presents distinctive dining concepts. Restaurant Le SAX is an all-day bar and restaurant for hotel guests and Parisians alike to socialise and dine over brunch, lunch or dinner. Presided over by Executive Chef, David Maroleau, who has previously led Michelin-starred restaurants, Restaurant Le SAX showcases the best of ‘all that we love.’
The celebrated Kinugawa brand brings its acclaimed Franco-Japanese dining experience to the top of Sax Paris. Kinugawa Rive Gauche, a two-story rooftop restaurant, blends Parisian elegance with Japanese culinary artistry. The cocktail bar reinterprets Parisian classics with Japanese elements such as yuzu and shiso.
Exclusive adventures and amenities
The experienced concierge team is ready to tailor each guest’s stay. As part of the LXR Hotels & Resorts Pursuit of Adventure programme, guests can explore the essence of the Rive Gauche through intimate and specially curated experiences. These include a gourmet picnic with a stunning view of Les Invalides, a behind-the-scenes tour of the Eiffel Tower, and a private pontoon cruise on the Seine for a memorable Parisian adventure.
The Fitness & Spa SAX Le Club, open 24/7 for hotel guests and members, offers Technogym equipment, a sauna, a hammam, and treatment rooms for massages and facials. Designer bicycles and personalised pet-friendly services are also available.
