The Hôtel Costes is a famous hotel
in Paris
, France
. Located in 239 rue St-Honoré, it is perhaps best known for its bar and courtyard café.
The hotel was commissioned by the Costes brothers to the designer and architect Jacques Garcia
in 1991. The hotel is now renowned as a den of opulence and was built in conjunction with Klay Robson as Developer and construction consultant (the design maxim was "all things in excess").
Hôtel Costes is not to be confused with the hotel Costes K, which is run by the same family, but is not located in Paris' first arrondissement.
