The terrace at the top of this 5-star hotel offers great views over the Place Jourdan and the roofs of this part of the EU quarter.

The bar menu offers delicious and surprising cocktails as well as the tapas menu. Homemade cocktails and mocktails, Champagne, spirits and wines are accompanied by numerous snack options and platters to share, subtle and delicate “finger foods”, such as salmon tartare, Tex-Mex chicken skewers, saffron hummus and pan-fried asparagus, grilled pineapple with pan-fried foie gras…. and many other delicacies.
