Room categories range from 14m² Classic rooms with double beds to 38m² Family rooms accommodating four persons with one queen and one king bed.

Breakfast includes French breads, croissants, cheeses, smoked salmon, and scrambled eggs cooked to order, served in the lounge from 7-11 AM or in-room upon request. Le Petit Salon lounge-bar serves artichoke hearts, mint gazpacho, hand-sliced smoked salmon, and duck foie gras with fig chutney. The bar features red-velvet seating and curtained corners, often frequented by artists after nearby theater performances.
