Strangely placed in the residential 16th, probably the only hotel that puts the beds in the centre of the bedroom. The bathrooms are incorporated into the bedrooms open-plan style, and feature baths to fit two (or more?!), so bring that someone special. Modern yet warm.

Shahé Kalaidjian’s second boutique hotel in Paris after Pavillon de Paris is certainly one of the most stunning in terms of designed modernism.
The check-in process involves coffee or cocktails, and takes place at the Grande Dame Bar (named after a Veuve Clicquot champagne) – they’ve scrapped the idea of a reception desk (too formal). Assistants can be contacted through their walkie-talkies and answer your every beck and call.
Each of the 27 rooms is unique, although they adhere to designer Christophe Pillet’s formula: low designer beds wrapped in charcoal cashmere covers, surrounded by beautiful imported grey slate walls (in which you can even see the occasional fossil) and tear-drop lamps. Stylish flat-screen TVs and DVDs entertain the bored and the beautiful, while coffee-table books divert the more literary-minded. Thick, fluffy rugs and red or green armchairs and sofas dilute the somewhat masculine look. The opulent bathrooms, with tubs big enough for two, are shielded off from the bedrooms by sheets of glass.
The residential location may be a little unusual for a hotel (although the Eiffel Tower is only a short walk away) but the setting couldn’t be more intimate and romantic.
