From the beginning

A story that began in the summer of 2007, the first chapter for Experimental. A bar tucked away, the beginning of the cocktail renaissance in Paris inspired by New York's clandestine cocktail bars of the time. Today, the story continues across cities from London, Paris and New York, to Venice, Verbier and Val d'Isère and finally, the Cotswolds.
Hotel Experimental Marais
In the heart of the Marais, in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris, our vision of Parisian hospitality takes shape in a five-star hotel. Every space, designed by Tristan Auer, tells the story of an imaginary traveller — curious and a collector — blending elegance with timeless heritage. Across 43 rooms and suites, a cocktail bar, a spa and Temple & Chapon, a grand restaurant led by chef Mélanie Serre, the venue offers a complete experience, balancing refinement and character.
Grand Pigalle Experimental
Tucked away in South Pigalle, a neighbourhood where artists and poets once roamed. Now dotted with cafés and wine bars, at the foot of Montmartre with balcony views of Sacré Coeur. A vision of Dorothée Meilichzon where 37 rooms unfold, a nod to history and elegance. Downstairs, chef Gregory Marchand’s Frenchie Pigalle is an invitation to indulge.
Grands Boulevards Experimental
A hotel steeped in history dating back to the French Revolution. At the centre of Paris' 2nd arrondisement, near Opéra Garnier, an address with everything at your fingertips. Inside, 50 rooms designed by Dorothée Meilichzon echo the building’s history. Downstairs, chef Giovanni Passerini’s courtyard restaurant is the prelude to rooftop cocktails.
Henrietta Experimental
A bolthole in the heart of Covent Garden, the soul of Central London. On our doorstep, the infinite choice of discovery, from theatres, galleries and museums, to restaurants, bars and shops. Tucked away in our small hotel, our very own Henri with beloved chef Jackson Boxer at the helm. A drink at the bar awaits, as you watch the world pass by.
Il Palazzo Experimental
Sestiere Dorsoduro 1411, 30123 Venezia VE, Italie

On the shores of the Giudecca Canal emerges Il Palazzo Experimental. A mirage against the glittering water, a romantic escape in the heart of Venice. 32 elegant hotel rooms and suites, with postcard views cast over canals and our private garden. Downstairs a restaurant awaits, and late-night revelry ensues at Experimental Cocktail Club.
Regina Experimental
A Belle Époque beauty revived by Dorothée Meilichzon. Its 72 rooms open onto the Atlantic on one side and a renowned golf course on the other. On the ground floor, Frenchie Biarritz blends Basque flavours with Parisian trends, and cocktails are sipped beneath an iconic glass roof. An outdoor pool and a spa extend the experience, true havens of well-being.
Nights tucked away behind hidden doors
Behind unassuming doors, the sound of cocktails behind shaken, the hum of music in the air. A menu that boasts a delicate balance of classic cocktails and Experimental twists. The night beckons.
Behind the cocktail bar
Tucked away inside, a space that mirrors each city. A design steeped in history, a tribute to what came before with a nod to New York. An evening whisked away by cocktails, be it classic, vintage or something new. A moment hidden away in New York, Paris, London and Venice. A cocktail sipped at altitude in Verbier and Val d'Isère. A drink sipped by the fire in the Cotswolds. Each place uniquely different.
