Hôtel Littéraire Marcel Aymé, a 4 star hotel in Montmartre

An original hotel experience dedicated to the world of Marcel Aymé

Marcel Aymé lived in Montmartre for about forty years and liked to meet his friends in the cafés and painting studios. A familiar figure in the neighborhood, a square even bears his name. The statue of the character Passe-muraille that adorns it is a beautiful tribute to the author.

A comfortable and modern hotel

39 rooms and apartments await you in the Marcel Aymé Literary Hotel, as well as several literary surprises based on the author’s universe.

Choose your cocoon for your stay :

• Double or triple room ;
• Apartment for 2, 4 or 6 people. This is the perfect opportunity to experience life in Montmartre like a local.

Sit next to the library or in your room and browse through the writer’s works, available in many languages. Discover the historical map of the neighborhood “In the footsteps of Marcel Aymé” and explore Montmartre following in his footsteps.

Visit Montmartre

Village in the city, the butte can be explored without GPS. Let your steps guide you randomly through the neighborhood. Artists' studios, restaurants and small cozy theaters are there to surprise you at the turn of a corner.

Here are some ideas to enhance your stay:

• Have your portrait taken on the Place du Tertre. At the top of the hill, many artists settle on the square and invite you to pose for them. Why not take the opportunity to bring back an unusual souvenir of your vacation?
• Visit the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. It is the star of Montmartre, whose dome of 83 meters dominates the city;
• Admire the breathtaking view of the City of Light from the square in front of the Sacred Heart Basilica;
• Visit the Saint-Vincent cemetery to visit the grave of Marcel Aymé;
• Take a picture with the Passe-muraille statue. This iconic character of Marcel Aymé could cross the walls and would have remained blocked at this place after having abused his power;
• The square Jehan-Rictus and the mosaic in lava tiles, on which "I love you" is written in 250 languages;
• The Clos Montmartre, a vestige of the last vines in Paris, which have been growing here since 944.

As you descend from the Montmartre Hill, let your steps guide you to other iconic places in the capital, including:

• On top of the Arc de Triomphe or the Eiffel Tower to discover other views of Paris;
• On the Place de la Concorde to admire the Pont Alexandre III and visit the Petit Palais and the Grand Palais;
• In the Jardin des Tuileries or the Jardin du Luxembourg to get some fresh air and rest your feet after a day of sightseeing;
