Hotel Vernet, Champs - Élysées

"Sister hotel to the Left Bank’s Bel Ami, the Hôtel Vernet is blessed with a singular location: more or less right at the business end of the Golden Triangle, yards from the Arc de Triomphe itself, in a century-old, post-Haussmann building by Albert Joseph Sélonier – with a glass dome designed by Gustave Eiffel himself." - The MICHELIN Guide

"This 50-room hotel offers the best of both worlds: It’s close enough to major attractions like the Champs-Elysées and the Arc de Triomphe that you can easily check them off your list, but sleek and set back enough that it doesn’t feel like a tourist trap. The early 20th-century post-Haussmann building ably balances the charm of old Paris—see the Gustave Eiffel-designed glass dome in the restaurant, for example—while seamlessly working in the new, with rounded, sculptural furniture (there’s an E emerald green couch worth coveting) that gives just a hit of modernity. Book a table at the restaurant, V, where you can take it all in."
