$$$$, Champs-Élysées
Fodor's Review:
Modern flourishes like perfume-bottle lamp bases and a Japanese garden revitalized the public spaces of this former Spanish nobleman's town house in 2004, along with a revamped restaurant by three-star Michelin veteran Michel Troisgros. Not everything is contemporary: room keys and doorbells are vintage, and hanging throughout the hotel are 1930s paintings by Boris Pastoukhoff, who donated 80 canvases to pay his bill. Rooms can be elegant -- the Emile Wolf Suite has a baby grand -- but the pinkish-beige combo in some can seem outdated. The minibars are stocked with cans of oxygen instead of alcohol. The fitness room has a splendid view of Sacré-Coeur.
