Fodor's Review:

As the epicenter of Parisian cool migrates eastward, it's no surprise that a design-conscious hotel has followed. On the trendy northern edge of Le Marais, this cheeky hotel that dares to call itself a resort combines Austin Powers playfulness with serious 007-inspired gadgetry. A psychedelic elevator zooms guests to ultraviolet-lighted hallways, where they enter pristine white rooms via fingerprint sensor locks. White shag carpeting, black-slate bathrooms, pop-art furniture, and bedside control panels that change the color of the lighting keep guests amused, until it's time to go downstairs for cocktails. Stylish Parisians pack the hotel's vodka bar and sleek restaurant, where a DJ holds court. Two suites have private terraces with heated, countercurrent pools. Pros: high-tech amenities and funky style; trendy bar attracts stylish locals; brunch served until 5 pm on Sunday. Cons: at the far edge of Le Marais on a noisy, busy boulevard; dark hallways can make it difficult to find your room; the white carpeting quickly shows wear and tear.
