Fodor's Expert Review Pley Hotel

Life's one big playground at this chic hotel that adds lightness and fun—not to mention serious style—to a neighborhood that can be a bit uppity. Tipping its hat to Paris's rich radio history, which was based in this arrondissement, the hotel's 100 vintage-inspired rooms feature radio sets and radio-inspired posters or archive photos from station Europe 1. Plush designer furniture, deeply hued carpets, and sleek wood create a cozy cocoon while elegant marble-clad bathrooms confirm that no detail was overlooked. You can enjoy a delicious seafood dish or a snack at the Pleyground restaurant, but not before sipping a craft cocktail while watching the Eiffel Tower sparkle away at the rooftop bar. Or better still, do it from your own private rooftop terrace in the 750-square-foot penthouse suite.
