Opened in 1885, Les Bains Douches, built and operated by the Guerbois family, became the first and the most renowned bathhouse of the capital. It was a temple; a space sanctified to massages and delights of Japanese, Russian, Turkish and sulphur baths. Customers could choose to swim in the pool or take a bath as they would at home.
Marcel Proust loved to come and take steam baths, while the workers from the nearby Les Halles food market came at dawn to shower and drink coffee and calvados after their night’s labours.
In 1978, this unique place transformed clubbing into an art and rapidly became a cultural phenomenon; a temple of the Parisian night. It was a centre of gravity, the eye of the storm, a crossroads of fashion, media, show business and arts. Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Yves Saint Laurent, Karl Lagerfeld, Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer, Bono, Prince, David Bowie, Mick Jagger, etc. The list is endless.
In 2011, to reinvent and save this icon of Parisian nightlife, La Société des Bains was born under the leadership of Jean-Pierre Marois... This, then, is the very first page of the new history of Les Bains.

Rooms & Suites
The Hotel Les Bains offers 39 spacious rooms and suites, each with a subtly different and unique personality. The decoration of the rooms and suites uses carefully selected materials including white marble and precious woods, as well as custom-fine furniture, designed in tribute to the distinguished guests, including a Gainsbourienne carpet and a replica sofa which is distinctly Warhol-esque.
Between the pockets of Joy Division vinyl, the mermaids of Les Bains who lended their good cheer to the "do not disturb" sign; and a beauty box concocted with care, the rooms and suites of Les Bains transcend style. In other words, Les Bains are truly unique.

Dining
The restaurant of Les Bains "La Salle-à-Manger" is a chic neo-brasserie, with sensitive and tasteful reminiscences of the legendary restaurant of the Bains Douches. Ceiling domes and rotundas undulate in waves and the rich purple sets off the mahogany tables.
In "La Salle-à-Manger", the flavours of the world are revisited with a superb French culinary technical finesse; an approach which has been developed by the two Michelin starred consulting Chef, Philippe Labbé. The menu follows the seasons and all ingredients are sourced from local and sustainable producers so that quality can be assured. Every detail of dishes and culinary creativity are produced in-house. Honey comes directly from the roof, where the buzzing bees in the hives of Les Bains are busily working...

Bar
Bar, located on the ground floor, is the true heart of the establishment, beating out the rhythm of both day and night in Les Bains.
The head bartender and his team, create their magic right in front of you in their flavour laboratory. Using fresh herbs, house wines and spirits they imagine, create, mix and produce original cocktails to delight you.
Out of this association was born a cocktail menu to satisfy all requirements, and lovers of spirits will be delighted to find as many pure creations as classics revisited in Les Bains.
And as Les Bains is much more than just a simple Bar, you can also taste a selection of healthy juices and wellness drinks.

Club
The music of Les Bains is a hybrid combination between nostalgia and new emotions. Les Bains reinvented themselves through a interdisciplinary programming looking for trends in France and elsewhere. Le Club is the result of a gathering of talents and of the discoveries of musicians seeking inspiration in the service of the new sound "Les Bains", created by and for those who love music.
Les Bains maintain the tradition of a joyful eclecticism thanks to the bouncer at the entrance of the Club and the various DJs; residents and guests. Le Club, with its swimming-pool and its black and white checkerboard, is a tribute to the glorious period setting of Les Bains.
It is also scene for live shows, concerts and events; a universal place.
Open Wednesday to Saturday from 23:00 to 05:00.
