"For anyone intent on shopping along Avenue Montaigne or Rue Saint-Honoré, this is prime position on Montaigne itself with some of the best Eiffel Tower views in the city and deep ties to fashion (Christian Dior was a regular, and legend has it the cocktail bar inspired his Bar jacket). Come for the unabashed opulence of gilded all-day eatery Le Relais Plaza or the Space Age glamour of its Alain Ducasse flagship and stay for the people-watching, with rooms and suites in classic Gallic stylings reinterpreted in eye-popping shades of gray and pink; the top floors surprise with sleeker, Art Deco-inspired loft-like spaces and unbeatable rooftop views. Don’t miss the newly refurbished Dior spa in the basement, whose butter-soft blankets and best-in-town hydrafacial will send you back onto the streets glowing." - Vogue
