If you come to Paris to shop, this is where you need to be. The location of the Hotel Marignan, right between the iconic Avenue Montaigne and the Champs-Élysées, is simply unparalleled for luxury retail therapy. You are mere steps away from the flagship stores of Dior, Chanel, LV, and frankly, anything else your wallet desires. Beyond the designer boutiques, the hotel is perfectly situated for access to an abundance of truly amazing restaurants. We also loved the quirky and fun artistic element on every floor, which made even going up and down the stairs an interesting experience.||The service, while possessing that slightly snooty Parisian charm, was ultimately impeccable and accommodating. The staff truly went above and beyond to make my birthday special, decorating the room beautifully and delivering a delicious celebratory cake. Furthermore, their five-star service was demonstrated on Bastille Day when they expertly navigated the lockdown and closures to ensure we made it to our lunch reservation across town—a logistical feat!||The restaurant breakfast was spectacular, featuring fresh baked treats and an impressive array of items to choose from.||The highlight of the entire stay was undoubtedly the views. Not only did we have spectacular, direct views of the Eiffel Tower from our room and its two lovely balconies, but the hotel's rooftop bar offered the most breathtaking panorama of the tower and the Bastille Day fireworks imaginable. It was a completely magical experience.||Rooms here are extremely spacious—a true luxury in Paris—and the huge bathtub was perfect for a relaxing soak after a long day of sightseeing (or shopping). Crucially for a hot Parisian summer, the air conditioning works flawlessly. The only minor, amusing critique I have is that a rogue green M&M remained on the floor for our entire three-night stay—a tiny detail and why I took off a star, but a fun quirk of an otherwise flawless hotel.||The Marignan is a fantastic blend of high-end style, comfort, and an unbeatable location for those who appreciate being in the heart of the action with stunning views to boot.
