Hôtel Raphael Review

This discreet palace hotel was built in 1925 to cater to travelers spending a season in Paris, so every space is generously sized for long, lavish stays. The closets, for instance, have room for ball gowns and plumed hats. Guest rooms, most with king-size beds and 6-foot windows, are decorated with 18th- and early-19th-century antiques, Oriental rugs, silk damask wallpaper, and ornately carved wood paneling. Bathrooms are remarkably large, and most have claw-foot tubs. The roof terrace, home to a restaurant in summer, has panoramic views. Parents will find a friend in the concierge, who can arrange bilingual babysitters, and offers recommendations on kid-friendly restaurants and entertainment.
