"It’s not at all unusual for luxury hotels to enter the restaurant business, or for famous restaurants to add lodging to their offerings. What’s less common, however, is for a gourmet food purveyor like Fauchon — imagine if Dean & DeLuca were Parisian and about a hundred years older — to try its hand at hospitality. Fauchon’s expertise in its primary area necessarily raises expectations for this new venture, and we’re happy to report that they’re met, and then some. Fauchon L’Hôtel is picture-book Paris, occupying a pair of classic mansions in the heart of the 8th, not far from Fauchon’s original location, as well as the Louvre, the Place de la Concorde, and the Jardin des Tuileries." - Tablet Hotels
