Plot summary

Paris, 1900. A playwright staying at the Hotel Paradiso has writer's block and needs a new play, so he studies the guests around him. Benedict Boniface is henpecked by his domineering wife Angelique, and Marcelle Cot feels neglected by her husband Henri, a building inspector. When Angelique leaves on an overnight trip and Henri goes to the city on business, Benedict tells Marcelle he is attracted to her and suggests the Hotel Paradiso, which rents rooms by the hour. The hotel is run by Anniello and his busboy George. Martin, a barrister and family friend, arrives with his daughters, along with the Bonifaces' maid Victoire and Henri's nephew Maxime.
