This offbeat lifestyle hotel's edgy design reflects the neighbourhood's legendary nightlife, while carefully thought-out details like a postcard taped on the bathroom wall and a key ring jangling with Paris souvenirs add personalised touches to the 40 stylish rooms. Each has an iPad loaded with music, and larger rooms have vintage turntables with an eclectic vinyl collection.
The ground-floor bar and restaurant is a happening space, with DJs spinning several nights a week. A restored jukebox with contemporary tunes is set in the basement music room. Kudos for the good-value 'Pigalle 12' rooms – actually tiny twins with bunk beds; some connect, making them ideal for small groups. À la carte breakfast is served until 4pm.
