Fodor's Review:

This contemporary luxury hotel opened in 2006 above the legendary Fouquet's Brasserie at the corner of the Champs-Elysées and Avenue George V. The design, by Jacques Garcia, is more refined retro than opulent, with a rich neutral palette in silk, mahogany, velvet, and leather. The hotel competes with Parisian palaces by offering 24-hour butler service and plasma TV screens hidden behind mirrors and above bathtubs. Le Diane restaurant offers a more feminine atmosphere than the brasserie, and the teak- and red-walled spa claims to have the largest indoor pool in Paris. Pros: many rooms overlooking the Champs-Elysées; bathroom TVs; métro right outside. Cons: the anonymous decor lacks Parisian character; busy street can be noisy; expensive part of town.
