- Paris, France

The hotel's warmth comes almost entirely from exceptionally attentive, named staff, particularly Anne Marie's breakfast service and Jules's welcome, and thoughtful touches like original artwork in rooms, yet the lobby feels corporate (compared to a Hilton Garden Inn) and rooms are described as slightly dated, making it a place where personal service creates cosiness rather than the physical space itself.
