In the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, 58 rue Jacob has been welcoming travelers for nearly a century and a half. In 1905, the Teissèdre family, hoteliers from the Cantal in the Auvergne, gave the house the name it still bears today: Hôtel du Danube — a name that appeared that very year in the New York Herald. Listed from 1906 in the Joanne guide, the forerunner of the famous Guides Bleus, the Danube became the discreet address of American travelers, students and scholars.
History came calling in October 1939: it was in the hotel's small salon that General Sikorski formed the Polish government-in-exile.
Since 1962, the same family has watched over the house, keeping alive the same spirit: that of a Saint-Germain-des-Prés address open to the world.
The historical facts cited are documented in period sources held at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gallica): Didot-Bottin directories (1875–1908), The New York Herald (24 February 1905), Joanne guide to Paris (1906), Vu magazine (25 October 1939).
Discover our elegant lounges with atypical and oriental decor. Settle into an armchair and enjoy the ambient calm to read or work with our internet connection. Alone, as a couple, or with family, these spaces are ideal for resting before or after a day of exploring the streets of Paris.
