Le Pavillon de la Reine

The Pavillion de la Reine is a lovely, intimate boutique hotel tucked behind the cloisters in the Place des Vosges, a genuine Parisian neighborhood. A haven of peace in the heart of the marsh, surrounded by shady gardens.

Hoxton

The moment you walk into this 18th-century hôtel particulier, you're greeted with the staircase that you've surely seen a thousand times on Instagram by now—and rightfully so. The lobby is a stunner and it opens onto an airy courtyard, where hotel guests and chic Parisians type away on their laptops, café Americain in hand.

Hotel des Grandes Boulvards

Rustic linen, worn wood furniture, bronze sconces, and best of all, the most comfortable bed of any boutique hotel. Interior designer Dorothée Meilichzon finds inspiration in an 18th-century French queen at this chic, 50-room lifestyle hotel with hidden courtyard in the 2e arrondissement.
