Oh la la ! the new cocktail bar x speakeasy hotel at Place de la Bastille

You know speakeasies, these hidden bars you discover when opening back doors, like Mezcaleria and its bad hidden in the hidden bar, Malicia. But have you heard of speakeasy hotels?

In May 2019, a cocktail bar x speakeasy hotel opens in the Bastille neighborhood, the Oh La La! The mastermind of the project, Julien Trollet already behind Pile ou Fance, Mini-Pong and RPR.

In this new cocktail bar, you meet in the morning to enjoy a cup of coffee and a croissant, or in the evening for an after-work party with colleagues or friends, peacefully seated on a soft bench chair or around a high table, sipping cocktails and nibbling on delicious tapas: organic hummus (€9), tuna and tarragon rillettes (€6), wakame carrot caviar (€6) or a mixed board to share.

As for cocktails, the Oh la la provides 9 of them, from the most classic ones (Moscow Mule, Gin Tonic, Mojito) to the most original ones such as the Howling Punch (rum, angostura bitter, vanilla syrup, Jamaican chili, pear juice, lime) or the Burnin' Sour (whisky, amaretto, rosemary syrup, apricot juice, lemon, egg white).

A bit further, a back door hidden in book shelves reveal stairs to access the 6 floors leading to the 16 hidden rooms of the Oh La La. Bright, comfortable and design (we live the high bed very trendy in Japan), they all include views on the Place de la Bastille and the famous Colonne de Juillet!

And no, I can already hear you, the hustle and bustle of the Place de la Bastille cannot be heard from the rooms, thank you triple glazing, we slept like a log!

To make sure you won’t go back to your hotel/home drunk, you now have a place to have a good time with friends and only a few steps to climb before going to bed.
