Parisian brothels are reborn as kinky hotels

Guests are greeted by 19th century oil paintings of topless prostitutes

Newsroom February 16 11:48

The brothels of Paris have been transformed into perfect, romantic getaways.

Guests can now pay by the hour for the decadent rooms, which still pay tribute to their former use.

The Hotel Grand Amour features rooms decorated with cheeky boob and bum wallpaper, while guests in Hotel Amour are greeted by 19th century oil paintings of topless prostitutes.

Maison-Souquet

Another of the ex-brothels is the Maison Souquet, which has been converted into a five-star getaway.

Each of Maison Souquet’s rooms is named after the woman who used to run it and the erotic hotel also features a dimly-lit spa complete with swimming pool – which can be booked out for private use.

Manager of another converted hotel Grand Pigalle, Valeriya Savehuk said: “We get a lot of honeymooners from abroad.

“Our clients are also Parisian couples taking a break from their children, or hipsters – you know, young men with stubble and Apple Macs.

“They are drawn by the exotic reputation of Pigalle”.
