Why choose a family-run hotel in Paris’ 16th arrondissement?

Local intelligence, a signature of the Beauséjour Ranelagh hotel.
Located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, our hotel is above all a story of family and transmission. For over four decades, we've welcomed travelers from all over the world - always with the same care, the same desire to share what we love: a certain art de vivre. We are a family of antique dealers and architects, passionate about art, design, clean lines and meaningful objects. Here, nothing is standardized. Every detail, every material, every piece of furniture has been carefully - and often emotionally - selected. We didn't imagine this place to seduce you, but to welcome you. Here, nothing is static. Everything vibrates with its surroundings.
We see the hotel as a living space that adapts, evolves and refines itself. Not a static setting, but a house in motion, in constant dialogue with the world.
At the Hôtel Beauséjour Ranelagh, we believe in a discreet and precious form of intelligence: that of a place that listens to its territory, understands it, and magnifies it.
Our hotel is one of them.
We call it local intelligence. It's our way of imagining the hotel business. Creating a place that resonates with its neighborhood, its times, and the people who pass through it. A place that captures, in real time, the best of what the present has to offer, and restores it in the form of sensitive, human and elegant experiences. Here, nothing is set in stone; everything evolves to the rhythm of life:
- collaborations with artisans, designers and talents from the 16th arrondissement,
- attention to seasons, materials and gestures,
- a taste for art, design and local culture, without folklore or cliché.
Local intelligence is what makes every stay unique, because every detail - from the welcome to the decor, from breakfast to the playlist - has been thought through to ensure that the soul of the place matches the moment. It's an attitude, a way of listening, a way of being present to the world. It's what makes our hotel never staid, never has-been, never disconnected. Simply, right where it belongs.
Our location in the 16th arrondissement is no accident. It's a conviction: that a hotel can be embodied in its territory without ever sinking into cliché.
We cultivate links with local talent: bakers, cheesemakers, florists, artists, ceramists, chefs, winemakers... Each collaboration tells a story. Every product on the breakfast table is a meaningful choice. The atmosphere invites calm and contemplation: architect-designed furniture, iconic lighting fixtures, a generous library of novels, art and architecture books. The works on the walls and the furniture are not there to impress, but to tell - fragments of history, taste and culture.
A cultivated, contemporary art of living
Hotel Beauséjour-Ranelagh cultivates a French art de vivre, refined but never staid. Every morning, the gourmet breakfast - organic, local and simply served - becomes a joyful ritual.
In the evening, a glass of Drappier natural wine or champagne is shared in the living room, just like at home. Every detail, from bed linen to playlists, from the choice of soap to the tone of the lighting, is thought through with gentle attention, without ever overdoing it. Because here, luxury doesn't shout. It is lived with precision, in a form of inspired sobriety, nourished by years of transmission and a sincere taste for beauty.
