Where to Stay in Paris: The Best Affordable Hotels

"A Philippe Starck–designed skyscraper in the business district that caters to business travelers with sleek, surreal decor, a sky bar, panoramic city views, an open-air spa and jacuzzi, and an on-site restaurant featuring Surrealist design; rooms come with binoculars to gaze across the skyline. While conveniently adjacent to a metro station, the hotel is removed from many central tourist concentrations and trades immediate access to classic sights for dramatic high-altitude amenities." - Sophie Dodd Sophie Dodd Sophie Dodd is a travel, wine and lifestyle writer.  Travel + Leisure Editorial Guidelines
