13 Best Boutique Hotels in Paris, From Design-Forward Stays to Petit Palaces | Condé Nast Traveler

"Perched on a Haussmann-style corner near the train tracks linking two main stations, this hotel—conceived by Adrien Gloaguen and designed by Luke Edward Hall—radiates playful joy with bold color combinations, French antiques next to midcentury lamps, checkerboard paired with leopard print, '70s geometric carpets, and Art Deco details. I appreciated how the team also transformed the nearby bar into Café Les Deux Gares, a bistro with a loyal local following where dishes such as succulent pork loin with beetroot are washed down with natural wines, and how the place has attracted a creative crowd despite its station-side location." - Matt Ortile
