Fodor's Expert Review Hôtel Le Bellechasse Saint Germain

If you like eclectic modern interior design, this tiny boutique hotel, where the decor was overseen by Christian Lacroix, is a good choice, and it's also around the corner from the Musée d'Orsay. The mark of the bad-boy French designer can be seen in the 33 rooms and public spaces, from the lime-green bathrooms and ultramodern fixtures to the black-slate lobby floor and multicolored wallpaper. Mismatched velour-and-leather armchairs mingle with quasi-neoclassic art and floral tiling, while floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the elegant courtyard. Each compact room design is unique, but all blend fabrics, textures, and colors, as well as Lacroix's whimsical characters screened on the walls and ceilings. A typical guest room has an open-concept bathroom, with the bathtub and sink in a corner and a separate toilet.
