Castel is one of the most recognisable names in the history of Parisian private nightlife. Established in the 1960s, the club became closely associated with the cultural and social life of Saint-Germain-des-Prés.

Its reputation grew through generations of artists, writers, musicians, fashion figures and Parisian society.

Unlike a conventional nightclub, Castel combines the atmosphere of a private townhouse with restaurant service, intimate salons and music.

Its appeal lies in its history, discretion and distinctly Parisian approach to nightlife.

Castel is a private members' club. Access is generally reserved for members and their invited guests.

Visitors should not assume that a restaurant enquiry or arrival at the door automatically grants access to the club.

Membership arrangements, guest admission and special-event access are determined by Castel.

Good to know: Contact the club before planning an evening if you are not attending with an existing member.

The restaurant is part of Castel's private-club experience, offering a more intimate setting than a conventional Paris dining room.

The combination of restaurant, cocktails and social spaces allows an evening to develop naturally, from dinner into drinks and music.

The surroundings reflect the club's historic identity, with a warm, discreet atmosphere rather than contemporary minimalist design.

Restaurant arrangements, menus and availability may vary according to the evening.

Castel is known for evenings that continue beyond dinner into music and dancing.

Its character differs from large commercial nightclubs: the atmosphere is intimate, social and closely connected to the private-club tradition.

Different rooms and spaces contribute to the feeling of a private Parisian house rather than a single large dance floor.

Music, late-night access and programming may change according to the club calendar and private events.
