The city of light, Paris is universally adored for its cosmopolitan grace, historic facades, gastronomic delights, and sheer elegance.
Most first-timers wander the city in a state of elation, realizing a lifelong dream of sipping wine and tearing into fresh baguette in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower. Others are repeat visitors, who sweep in to order coffee at a sun-soaked sidewalk table while watching Parisians chat with their local boulanger. It's a mecca for history buffs, couture aficionados, and anyone in need of a sublime dose of art, culture, innovation, and creativity.
And just as there is something to satiate the tastes, and taste buds, of any visitor, there is a hotel to match. Paris is teeming with palatial townhomes, five-star behemoths, and boutique enclaves. Choice isn't lacking, but in a city so sprawling and upmarket, it can be hard to narrow the field, especially when there's a budget to consider.
Of course, there are stars like the $4, $4, $4, and $4. But unless you're willing to shell out well over $800 per night, you're likely looking elsewhere. And if not, book those without hesitation.
For more accessible but equally high-end finds, we culled the landscape to identify four-, and five-star hotels as effortlessly chic as the city itself, with coveted Francophile amenities like idyllic terraces, posh design, worthy on-site dining, and sophisticated common spaces. Our selections are based on our own travel experiences, are well-rated and reviewed on trusted traveler sites such as $4 and $4, and vary in starting price from $124 to $420 (based on time of publishing) per night to meet a wide range of budgets.
Whether you seek extraordinary luxury, an eccentric under-the-radar gem, or are purely motivated by price, these hotels are all some of the city's best choices.
