The Most Stylish Paris Hotels For A Chic City Sojourn
Paris is a perennial favorite for a magical weekend escape, and the City of Light has recently welcomed a wave of delightful new hotel openings – joining its lineup of illustrious, long-standing stays. Below, discover PORTER’s pick of Paris hotels to book now, from well-known classics to exciting new additions. By KATIE BERRINGTON
La Fantaisie
A spectacular hotel with hidden-gem status, La Fantaisie might just boast the most charming courtyard gardens in all of Paris. Designed by Martin Brudnizki, floral motifs extend throughout its whimsical interiors, and the verdant oasis vibes even span to birdsong soundscapes playing in the elevators. In the Faubourg Montmartre neighborhood, the 1920s-inspired Bar sur le Toit offers a stunning spot for cocktails, overlooking the Parisian rooftops. Dining options come in the form of the hotel’s glass-ceilinged restaurant and the more laid-back café, which spills onto the bustling market street of Rue Cadet.
JK Place Paris
Masters of Italian chic hotelier Ori Kafri and architect Michele Bonan are behind the renovations of the former ambassadorial residence that JK Place has made its Parisian property. Sumptuous and inviting, the high-ceilinged rooms showcase eclectic artworks and beautiful antiques, while the subterranean spa has a sleek indoor pool. Plus, the hotel’s Casa Tua restaurant (a sibling of the Miami institution) is a spot for those in the know.

Maison Proust
Fitting for a city synonymous with love, Maison Proust is a beautiful, romantic hotel in the heart of Le Marais. Inspired by 20th-century literary legend and socialite Marcel Proust, the ambience of the decadent design celebrates the lively spirit of Belle Époque salons. The 23 exquisite bedrooms and suites are adorned in dark and luxurious jewel tones and artwork of the era, as are the sumptuous bar, library and winter garden. But the jewel of the crown is the magnificent spa, which encompasses a majestic columned swimming pool and hammam, plus treatments by Dr. Max Huber and La Mer.

Maison Delano
It might not be quite as high-octane in its opulence as some of the city’s luxury hotels, instead Maison Delano offers intimate accommodation with a prestigious address in the 8th Arrondissement, discretely tucked by rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. The 18th-century mansion has been beautifully reimagined with refined and charming details across its rooms, courtyard restaurant and bar. The Grand Historic Suite is a standout – with a richly adorned ceiling, central bathtub, marble fireplace and herringbone parquet flooring throughout.
Le Grand Mazarin
Aptly set in the creative neighborhood of Le Marais, Le Grand Mazarin is a hotel with artistic spirit. Its wonderfully eclectic design, dreamt up by Martin Brudnizki, fuses classic grandeur with contemporary twists, and delivers a magnificent array of rooms and suites with typical Parisian panache. But the most dazzling feature is the property’s mosaic-clad swimming pool, which is set beneath a stunning frescoed ceiling.
Hôtel Plaza Athénée
With a location on the famous tree-lined avenue Montaigne, Hôtel Plaza Athénée is in the center of the city’s high-profile couture shopping district, nestled between the Eiffel Tower and the Champs-Elysées. The most famous room of the red-awning-adorned building is the Haute Couture Suite, from which you can enjoy a picture-perfect vista of the Eiffel Tower through a door-sized, ornate frame.

Bvlgari Hotel Paris
Bvlgari’s Paris outpost stands on the Triangle d’Or, bringing its Italian flair and craftsmanship to reimagine a former 1970s office block, imbuing it with the brand’s world-renowned glamour. Bvlgari Hotel Paris’s magnificent redesign was the brainchild of Italian architectural firm Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel and Parisian architects Valode & Pistre, with 11 storeys decked out in marble and Murano glass complementing the amazing 360-degree vistas.
Le Bristol
Celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, Le Bristol, quite simply, never goes out of style. The palatial Paris stalwart is a long-time love of the fashion crowd, serving transformative spa experiences and a much-celebrated gastronomic offering (the hotel holds four Michelin stars across its Epicure and 114 Faubourg restaurants). There is a glorious orange-tree-lined courtyard and dreamy rooftop pool – while Le Bar du Bristol is the perfect spot for a nightcap.
Cheval Blanc
Cheval Blanc is the Belle Époque Seine-side property owned by LVMH, which has become the fashion conglomerate’s first five-star hotel in the city. Exquisitely overhauled by architect Peter Marino, the restoration pays homage to its rich history while adding contemporary finesse. The 72-bedroom property makes for an opulent residence, with a dedication to culinary excellence across its four restaurants.
Hôtel Madame Rêve
The legendary 19th-century Louvre Post Office (once France’s largest post-office building) is now the site of one of the city’s most thrilling hotels, Madame Rêve. With spellbinding views from its sky garden (and the 53 balconies), this design-led urban oasis offers up a hugely inviting space in a mix of woods and golden-brown tones, plus two exquisite restaurants: one Mediterranean-inspired, with a glorious terrace, and one Japanese-influenced, La Plume, which boasts breathtaking views.

Hôtel de Crillon
The illustrious Hôtel de Crillon has long been a favorite of the fashion set, thanks to its sublime suites (the Grands Appartements were designed by Karl Lagerfeld), culinary offerings, award-winning Sense spa, and spectacular views over the Place de la Concorde and Eiffel Tower. The 18th-century palace has been restored with suitable majesty, most recently by Rosewood in a four-year uplift that includes a swimming pool lined with 17,600 gold scales.
