6 Luxurious Paris Mansions That You Can Actually Stay In

"Once the home of literary titan Stendhal (the hotel is named after his first novel), this 20-room, 4-star property sits in the thick of the Right Bank between bustling rue Saint-Honoré and rue de Rivoli. Yet once you pass through the private cobblestone courtyard on rue Cambon, the city noise falls away. Interior designers Flora de Gastines and Anne Geistdoerfer juxtaposed Chanel-inspired textures (tweed, velvet, and braided brass) and tranquil shades of blue and pink with classic Haussmannian elements (parquet floors, moldings, and high ceilings) to deliver a home-away-from-home ambiance. Breaking with tradition, reception and a literary-salon-style lounge are on the top floor, offering views of Paris’s rooftops."
