Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated August 2026
8th Arr. — Champs-Élysées
A Haussmannian mansion reborn as a 40-suite sanctuary, each room decorated like a private apartment with Carrara marble, Goyard trunks, and silk wall panels. The library-bar serves the best cocktails in the 8th. Discretion is the currency here.
★ 9.7 Hotelier's Choice score, 40+ criteria · Many rooms include free cancellation
8th Arr. — Avenue Montaigne
The crimson awnings on Avenue Montaigne are a Paris icon. Inside, it's all Alain Ducasse dining, a Dior spa, and suites where the Eiffel Tower fills the window like a painting. Unapologetically palatial.
★ 9.6 Hotelier's Choice score, 40+ criteria · Many rooms include free cancellation
16th Arr. — Trocadéro
Napoleon's grand-nephew's former palace, now a hotel with the single best Eiffel Tower view in Paris — framed by every window on the river side. The Cantonese restaurant is the best Asian dining in the city, and the spa is a marble temple.
★ 9.5 Hotelier's Choice score, 40+ criteria · Many rooms include free cancellation
5th Arr. — Latin Quarter
A tranquil left-bank retreat steps from the Jardin des Plantes. The rooms are dressed in sage greens and creamy stone, the breakfast courtyard is an Instagram trap, and the neighbourhood feels like the Paris of Hemingway's memoirs.
★ 9.2 Hotelier's Choice score, 40+ criteria · Many rooms include free cancellation
3rd Arr. — Arts et Métiers
A design-centric hotel in the Upper Marais where the rooms are deliberately pared back — concrete, brass, linen — but the rooftop restaurant overlooking Paris's zinc roofscapes is pure theatre. One of the best hotel restaurants in the city.
★ 9.0 Hotelier's Choice score, 40+ criteria · Many rooms include free cancellation
Le Marais — Rue du Poitou
Christian Lacroix turned a former bakery into 17 rooms of maximalist theatre. Every room is different — toile meets pop art, stripes clash with florals — yet somehow it all coheres into something deeply, joyfully Parisian.
★ 8.7 Hotelier's Choice score, 40+ criteria · Many rooms include free cancellation
