Herbarium, the cocktail bar at Hôtel National des Arts & Métiers in Paris, invites you into an urban jungle.

Tucked behind a discreet door, this intimate bar reveals a cozy and laid-back setting. The cocktails boldly imagined by passionate mixologists unfold floral, botanical, and spicy notes. Subtle, balanced, sometimes surprising, these plant-based elixirs celebrate the art of mixology in all its finesse.

On weekends, Herbarium transforms into a vibrant nightlife spot, where resident DJs spin deep house and funk, turning the bar into a must-visit destination for stylish Parisian evenings.

But Herbarium is not just for night owls. During the day, this unique space becomes a peaceful cocoon   for a quiet coffee break, discreet laptop work, or a sweet treat after lunch at the hotel’s Italian restaurant, Ristorante National. Bathed in natural light, both locals and travelers settle in to enjoy a tranquil, timeless moment.

A shape-shifting space part cocktail bar, part daytime lounge, Herbarium captures the very soul of Hôtel National: inspiring, refined, and deeply Parisian.

And when summer arrives, the experience reaches new heights. Perched on the 7th floor, the National rooftop opens onto a panoramic 180° view over the Parisian skyline. At golden hour, this open-air bar becomes one of the city’s most coveted spots to sip a cocktail as the sun sets.

The mood is relaxed and sun-kissed, with minimalist furniture, lush greenery, and ambient music. Whether for an afterwork drink with friends, a romantic tête-à-tête, or simply to take in the last rays of the day, the rooftop offers a moment suspended between sky and city.

Between the intimate elegance of Herbarium and the fresh energy of the rooftop, Hôtel National des Arts & Métiers embodies Parisian living.
