Distributed among a trio of three-story buildings set back in a quiet cobbled courtyard, Madame Le Floch's rooms have a distinct grandmotherly vibe because of their flowery wallpaper and lace bedspreads, but they're spacious for this part of Paris.

Two top-tier Paris designers transformed a humdrum 1960s office building into one of the city's liveliest fashion-centric boutique hotels. Bright, compact rooms sport a mod, black-and-white graphic style inspired by '60s designer Courrèges that feels both sleek and cozy, especially the tiniest rooms, whose ingenious layout makes them manageable.

Treat yourself to one of the many yoga and wellness classes or a holistic therapy session. The excellent restaurant and bar are strictly "plant-based," a bit of a novelty in still meat-centric Paris, and there's a chic florist shop, too.

This hotel is prized for its unbeatable location off tranquil Place du Marché Ste-Catherine, one of the city's lesser-known pedestrian squares, and for its gentler prices in an ever more costly neighborhood.

Another option is to head to the rooftop bar for cocktails and outdoor movie screenings.

Montparnasse was the art capital of the world in the 1920s and '30s, and this hotel captures some of that spirit by naming its rooms after artists who lived in the neighborhood during that time while also providing excellent service at hard-to-beat prices. Pay a bit extra for one of the three deluxe corner rooms, which have windows facing the Eiffel Tower. All are soundproofed, but none completely drown out the traffic below.

Satellite TV, free Internet, and air-conditioning are welcome amenities. A major plus is the hotel's reasonably priced airport shuttle service—book an airport pickup when you reserve your room.

The "seven" may refer to the level of heaven you'll find at this boutique hotel, but most likely it means the seven suites, where a team of designers and artists were let loose to riff on themes like Music Lovers, Cinephilia, and Spirituality. These suites break the rules with Plexiglas bathrooms and furnishings, "levitating" beds, and ceilings embedded with fiber-optic lights that make even the smallest rooms seem, well, heavenly. The wine bar has an interesting cocktail selection at night.

Set at one of the Haut Marais's trendiest crossroads, this vintage-theme and jazz-inspired newcomer (its name comes from a tune by guitarist Grant Green) fits perfectly into the beating heart of the neighborhood. You'll feel right at home in the warm and welcoming interiors—highlighting noble materials, plush designer furnishings, and original artworks—from the stylish common areas to the cozy guest quarters.

Clever decorative touches include clear-plastic desk chairs, ambient lighting, and silver rubber duckies in the bath. A small fitness center and a full-service bar are nice touches, and close proximity to métro stations is another convenience appreciated by guests.
