Terrass’’ Hôtel, Montmartre hotel on rue Joseph-de-Maistre since 1911

The Terrass’’ Hôtel was built in 1911 at 12-14 rue Joseph-de-Maistre, in Montmartre, in the 18th arrondissement. That year Edmond Hurand, already the owner of the Élysée-Montmartre, bought a brasserie and a 1,000 m² plot on the corner of rue Caulaincourt.

He built a hotel of 120 rooms, crowned with a roof terrace overlooking the whole of Paris. The house welcomed the writers and performers of the Butte: Colette, the actors Michel Simon and Pierre Brasseur, the pianist Samson François.

Since it opened, the hotel has belonged to its founder’s family, handed down from one generation to the next. The architect Muriel Gaz renovated it while keeping its original character, and the top-floor restaurant bears Edmond Hurand’s name.

Between the Sacré-Cœur and the boulevard de Clichy, the hotel now has 78 rooms, decorated like theatre dressing rooms. The Edmond restaurant on the seventh floor and the rooftop bar look out over the roofs of Paris and the Eiffel Tower.
