"Skip the sleepy districts that house so many of Paris’s plush hotels, and book a private perch with a bird’s eye view of the river and La Samaritaine as your fashion-forward neighbor. From a sophisticated suburban crowd to the Bobo’s of the right bank, every type of Parisian rubs shoulders with jet-setting guests in the convivial seventh-floor Art Deco brasserie meets cocktail bar, Le Tout-Paris. It’s the place to be seen before you escape to the subterranean spa or your room with a view. Almost every one of the 72 elegant, beige and gold-hued rooms, 46 of which are suites, overlook the Seine. The best spot from which to enjoy the hotel’s idyllic position is from a sunlit winter garden suite; this private perch offers views from Notre-Dame Cathedral to the Eiffel Tower, as well as a glimpse into day-to-day life in the French capital, the famous bouquinistes (or booksellers), and romantic promenades. Tucked away below ground, the brightly lit spa designed like a modern living room is helmed by another member of the LVMH équipe and star of both Parisian couture and beauty: Christian Dior." - Sandra Ramani, Lindsey Tramuta

"1st arrondissement A luxurious ménage of quintessential Parisian views (thanks to its prime location on the Left Bank of the Seine, just steps from The Louvre), indulgent facilities—including a curved infinity pool, as well as an intricate marble hammam—and a family-friendly attitude at its heart, the Cheval Blanc is the ideal address for young globetrotters and their discerning parents. Though the City of Light awaits outside, inside, beyond the refined chaise longues of the lobby, another discovery is to be made: Le Carrousel, an enchanted kingdom for play, dreamt up by sailor Maud Fontenoy, especially for the Maison’s youngest guests. Le Carrousel sets the stage for children to uncover the wonders of nature, and for budding explorers to set off on authentic Parisian adventures, all under the watchful eye of dedicated Ambassadeurs. Outside of this indoor playground, all manner of other family-orientated activities can be arranged, from treasure hunts to guided tours and workshops. And to remember it all? Cheval Blanc Paris has partnered with none other than Maison Christian Dior to design a charming collection of elegant baby bedding and gifts, especially for the hotel’s littlest guests. —Anya Meyerowitz" - Luciana Bellini

"Cheval Blanc Paris, located in the 1st arrondissement, is housed in the iconic Art Deco department store La Samaritaine and is LVMH's first Paris hotel. Guests have views of the Pont Neuf and Saint-Germain-des-Prés, and can dine in one of four restaurants created by a team of decorated chefs, including Plénitude, Chef Arnaud Donckele's Three Star restaurant, and Céleste, an ephemeral rooftop bar with incredible views over Paris." - The MICHELIN Guide
