Brach Paris - Evok Collection

The Best Independent and French-Owned Hotels in Paris Now - AFAR

"Opened in 2018 inside a former postal sorting facility in the 16th arrondissement, this Philippe Starck–designed hotel delivers an effortlessly cool, residential vibe that made it an instant favorite with in-the-know Parisians; the 59 rooms mix marble, leather, and wood, and the property buzzes with a family-friendly brunch scene, legendary parties, a next-level sports club styled like a 1930s boxing club (complete with a 72-foot pool), and a summer rooftop terrace with a vegetable garden, hen house and a Norwegian bath where you can sip cocktails while taking in 360-degree city views." - Mary Winston Nicklin, Lindsey Tramuta
