"Set opposite the Tuileries Gardens and part of a prestigious collection, this opulent hotel is steeped in artistic and social history—Salvador Dalí stayed there annually for decades (famously parading ocelots through the lobby and painting from his suite), it has served as a backdrop for high‑profile shoots, and features rooms with hand‑painted de Gournay wallpaper, shallow balconies, a storied teatime tradition, and a deeply loyal clientele." - Mary Winston Nicklin
