In the heart of an
authentic neighbourhood
The 16th arrondissement
came about in the 19th century with the expansion of Paris towards the
west. The villages of Chaillot, Auteuil, and Passy were incorporated in
1860, while retaining their countryside ambiance. Expansion meant
architecture and new buildings, many with magnificent Art Nouveau or Art
Deco facades. Through its elegant streets and avenues, from museums to
shops and restaurants, from small public gardens to vast parks, the
visitor is charmed by the authentic personality of this area, which is
both well-to-do and familial.Becoming a hotel in 1920 and taking the
name of its first guest, Lord Baltimore, Hotel Baltimore occupies a town
house built in 1892. A typical Parisian, Haussmann-era building, the
triangular façade featuring wrought-iron balconies and beautiful
glass-work, preserving the architectural unity of the avenue. The
classic restraint of the style and the outstanding location at the heart
of Paris' golden triangle – Arc de Triomphe, Concorde, Eiffel Tower –
make the Baltimore a stunning example of the Parisian art of living.
Inside, all is quiet
and elegant. The very sober and refined décor makes grand use of heavy
fabrics in warm colours, with period furniture, sculptures and original
paintings interspersed throughout. Among its 103 rooms, a number offer a
double exposure and the high ceilings typical of 19th-century Paris.
Others have sloping ceilings, making them more intimate and picturesque
with small balconies looking out over the rooftops of the City of Light.
Attentive staff, always
available, offer a personalized VIP welcome and impeccable service
combining courtesy and discretion with a desire to anticipate and cater
to their guests' every need. Such gracious efficiency contributes to the
special, sophisticated atmosphere of good humour and cordiality. In the
heart of the 16th arrondissement, Baltimore cultivates true gentility.
The hotel restaurant boasts a Michelin star and a select variety of fine
wines.
