the entrance – fire and light in conversation
The entrance pays tribute to the blazing furnaces of the Baccarat Manufacture, with a monumental double-sided fireplace whose transparency reveals an ever-moving flame a symbol of the eternal energy of crystal.
This visual anchor is framed by a burned wood wall, raw and intense, contrasting with a striking installation of Harcourt glasses each one backlit by LEDs performing a luminous choreography that plays with transparency and ref lection .
Throughout the hotel, crystal appears in a thousand forms, discreet accents or spectacular installations, shaping a world where Baccarat’s heritage engages with light and architecture.

the petit salon
Located on the first floor, the Petit Salon is an intimate jewel box where material contrasts shape a singular atmosphere. Its sculpted smoked oak furniture and paneling give it a strong, enveloping presence. At the center, a table by Belgian artist Armand Jonckers, combining resin and embedded crystal, creates a play of light and transparency that echoes the Baccarat universe. This raw, masculine aesthetic is subtly softened by a ceiling clad in mica a shimmering stone whose radiant ref lections diffuse a luminous, almost precious glow, adding a feminine touch to the whole.

the grand salon: an ode to crystal
Open to all, the Grand Salon embodies Baccarat elegance through an airy, luminous scenography. A ballet of chandeliers suspended at varying heights engages in dialogue with contrasting materials, matte and glossy revealing the space’s full richness.
Here, the DNA of Gilles&Boissier is fully expressed: sculpted smoked oak paneling interrupted boldly by metal arches, creating a subtle tension between tradition and modernity. The “Mercure” vitrines, placed like folding screens, play with transparency and reflection.
A wall of flat-fold satin, inspired by Watteau pleats, offers ref ined relief, enhanced by internal padding that gives it a couture-like structure. This interplay between texture and light continues onto the ceiling, where brushed metal beams alternate with polished stainless steel surfaces, shimmering with ref lected light.

Conceived as a true cocoon, the Grand Salon is designed to offer comforting zones where everyone can f ind their place. The furniture is arranged freely, varying in height and perspective, a mix of deep armchairs, discreet alcoves, and semi-enclosed areas to encourage conversation or intentional solitude. More than a mere passageway, the Grand Salon is a true living space,where architecture and furnishings merge to create a welcoming, timeless atmosphere.
A poetic gesture completes the ensemble: a library of white books, arranged chronologically since the founding of Baccarat. Each guest is invited to inscribe their own story, and pass the pen to a friend.

guest corridors
Before reaching the rooms, guests journey through long corridors like a passage through the very heart of the hotel. At Baccarat, these corridors are conceived as an art gallery: each door f lanked by a sculpture on a pedestal. Each pedestal becomes a signature, an artistic imprint ten artists expressing their vision of the Harcourt glass. One hundred works punctuate the guests’ path, transforming their walk into a unique aesthetic experience. Here, guests remember not a room number, but a sculpture.

rooms & suites
On the floor, mirrored panels break the linearity and play with the crystal’s reflections, deepening the sense of space and light. These details give the place its soul. The entire room area is defined by a quieter atmosphere, where colors fade to let serenity take hold. In each room, crystal appears in subtle detail: embedded in pendant lights, headboards, desks, lamps. Even the bathroom mirrors are adorned with delicate crystal accents a discreet echo of Baccarat’s DNA
