Paris is one of the most elegant cities in the world and that is not by chance. Indeed, the City of Light has many things to offer to its visitors, from beautiful sights to excellent and magnificent accomodations. A great example is Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme, a five star gem that is strategically located on the Rue de la Paix, within walking distance of some of the best tourist attractions in Paris such as the Louvre, the Palais Garnier and the glamorous boutiques in the busy Place Vendôme, or on the street Rue du Faubourg Saint Honore.

Although in the case of a luxury hotel right in the city of love would make you think that their regular guests are exclusively couples, the fact is that the Park Hyatt is perfect for social events of any kind, either celebrations or meetings. Its facilities include eight flexible meeting rooms, including five designed for receptions; and three smaller together with an exquisite natural light and adequate privacy for intimate ceremonies.

Ducasse has already renewed the cuisine in two other hotels of the same chain, the Plaza Athénée in Paris and The Dorchester in London. Now for the legendary chef, whose recipes have exported many cooks in the four corners of the world, the adventure begins at Le Meurice, which enjoys an excellent reputation inside and outside the City of Light, where it shines with the energy of its enchanting notes.

Some kind of help in this regard, however, comes to us from Cdimancheaparis, which indicates to us the small hotel we have always dreamed of. The sign says Hôtel du haut Marais and managers Marc and Didier renovated it about 2 years ago. Entering one gets the impression that they lack only a cup of hot tea and a fireplace to land in a country house. The 5 double rooms, 2 suites and the apartment for 4 persons have been furnished by the owners using family furniture and accesses bought in antique markets, giving the hotel a very intimate atmosphere.

Among the most interesting indications, there is an apartment on the fifth floor, a small nest from which you can admire the roofs of Paris city center planning their days as tourists in the most beautiful city in the world.

Prices: from 125 EUR per night for a double to 185 per suite (2 persons) up to 198 EUR for the apartment (always 2). Free wi fi and breakfast is included.
