THE PARADISO EXPERIENCE
For a short while or a longer stay, life at the Hotel Paradiso mirrors the world of cinema.
A place where, for the first time, cinema is everywhere: in the traditional theatres, in the privacy of our rooms and suites transformed into screening spaces, and even on our rooftop terrace with its open-air cinema.
Paradiso cinema is for experiencing and sharing, filling you with wonder and whisking you away. A cinema that is one step ahead of everything and open to everyone in a place that never closes.
THE CASTING
Cinema meets all art forms at the Hotel Paradiso which was imagined and designed by mk2 and friends. Here, architects, artists, stylists and each member of the group have imbued their field with their vision of cinema as a way of life.

A CINEMA-HOTEL BY FILM LOVERS FOR FILM LOVERS
Created by the mk2 film group in the early 2010s, Paradiso aims to create life experiences around cinema. More than six years in the making, the Hotel Paradiso was designed by Nathanaël and Elisha Karmitz, the brothers at the helm of mk2, as an extension of the company's initial ambition: to offer an other idea of cinema.
THE CINEMA PARADISO FESTIVALS
With Paradiso, mk2 reinvents the cinema experience and creates the Cinéma Paradiso festivals in the nave of the Grand Palais in 2013 and 2015 and in the square courtyard of the Louvre Museum since 2019. Cinéma Paradiso is a spectacular cultural experience open to all generations, offering a moment of sharing and celebration around cinema, music and bistronomy.
OUR COMMITMENTS
The Hotel Paradiso follows in the footsteps of the mk2 group’s eco-friendly commitments. With this in mind, we have been particularly thoughtful with our choice of materials, furniture and in-room products. The building complies with the latest RT 2012 energy regulations in France, we have selected all-natural bath products by Nuxe and we keep single-use consumables to the absolute minimum.
