ON-SITE DESCRIPTION: USA Toll Free 1800 426 5445 for Best Rates and Reservations. Hotel du Jeu de Paume Paris France. Situated in the heart of the Ile Saint-Louis and nestled between the branches of the river Seine, this former royal "jeu de paume" or "handball court" mansion commissioned by Louis XIII in the 17th century has been lovingly and entirely restored. The hotel retains a true identity of time and place and is suffused with art and history. This atmosphere is apparent in the public halls, the lounge bar, the dining-room and the mezzanine library, as well as within the hotel's 28 bedrooms - including 5 duplexes and 2 junior suites, all individually decorated and many opening onto an indoor patio-garden. With the passing years, several leisure spots have been created around and inside the hotel in order to meet the expectations of a loyal and regular clientele: an antique gallery and a billiard smoking-room to be enjoyed before setting off for dinner in town. Under the 300-year-old woodbeams - which once witnessed the dull noise of the "esteuf" (the jeu de paume ball) and the server's call "tenez Messire!" - the decoration pleasantly combines simplicity and refinement. Formerly the refreshment rooms for the "jeu de paume - handball" players, the cellar now offer a lounge where visitors may either relax or work. This timeless hotel also offers a Norwegian sauna and a small fitness room. Paris 4 Star, Luxury First Class Hotel.
