Désolé ça sonne mal. A la rigueur, rustique + luxueux = cossu, genre bourgeoisie provinciale à la Balzac, avec l'aspect inévitablement restrictif que cette traduction comporte, et qui à mon sens est loin de rendre la parisianité quelque peu empreinte de futilité féminine du concept.

Sorry mais il s'agit là d'un parti-pris. C'était du reste ma traduction initiale. Mais je sentais qu'il y avait comme anguille sous roche .... ah là là !

petit hotel de luxe

My comment:

or Hotel Boutique. This is new words and does not have real translation. It is an hotel with no big lobby and that has only small facilities.

If it were the original "Hôtel Boutique" in Paris, I would not have asked ! What we are looking for here is a GENERIC hotel categorizing term, may it have been coined from an initial household name (like HOOVER for aspirator, etc ..). Thanks all the same for your input :)
