La Réserve
Following the success of a set of private short-stay apartments in Paris, the La Réserve brand launched a hotel and spa within a Haussmann-style mansion, just off Rue Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Its 40 rooms are laden with yards of silk, damask and brocade, and bathrooms are heavy on luxe materials that include carrara and Turquin blue marble – no surprise, considering the design was conceived by Jacques Garcia, who looked to painter James Tissot’s depictions of bourgeois 19th-century Paris for inspiration.

Hotel Bienvenue
Housed in the former century-old Hotel Fenelon, in Paris’ bustling South Pigalle neighbourhood, Bienvenue is the latest addition to hotelier Adrien Gloaguen’s growing collection. Set over two buildings – affectionately christened Town and Countryside – that are separated by a central courtyard, the hotel’s colourful new interiors are by Chloé Nègre, who gave each building a distinct look. The highlight is artist Julien Colombier’s flamboyant floor motif in the courtyard, best seen from the bar and small restaurant on the ground floor, where tasty tapas-style dishes are served alongside the signature wacky cakes from Anaïs Olmer, who also offers cake-making classes on site.
