Paris and jazz share a love story that dates back to the Roaring Twenties. In the capital, blue notes still drift from vaulted cellars and legendary clubs, offering music lovers a unique experience that blends authenticity with modern flair. Staying at Hôtel Monte Cristo places you close to several iconic venues where jazz continues to thrive.
Le Duc des Lombards — The Temple of Parisian Jazz
Located in the Les Halles district, Le Duc des Lombards is one of the most renowned jazz clubs in Paris. This intimate venue welcomes both world-class artists and rising talents. With its cozy atmosphere, high-caliber programming, and impeccable acoustics, it offers an unforgettable experience for true jazz enthusiasts.
Le Caveau de la Huchette — A Living Institution
Just steps from Saint-Michel, this medieval cellar has been a true jazz sanctuary since 1946. Here, swing, bebop, and lindy hop are still danced to with joy and energy, creating a festive, vintage atmosphere. Whether you’re a jazz aficionado or a curious visitor seeking a lively Parisian night, this legendary venue is a must.
Sunset Sunside — The Soul of Contemporary Jazz
In the Châtelet district, this twin venue combines two worlds: Sunset, dedicated to modern and electric jazz, and Sunside, which focuses on acoustic and intimate performances. Each evening brings a new musical discovery — a blend of improvisation, rhythm, and virtuosity.
After a night filled with saxophone solos and swinging melodies, return to the calm and elegance of Hôtel Monte Cristo. The hotel’s atmosphere, inspired by the travels of Alexandre Dumas, harmonizes perfectly with the free and cosmopolitan spirit of Parisian jazz.
