“This boutique pied à terre sits close to Opéra Garnier in central Paris. Opera-inspired interiors by Jacques Garcia are sleek and elegant, invoking a boudoir with satin drapes and damask trims; Hermès toiletries add to the luxury experience. A classic smoking room and petit salon complete the hotel.”

Maison Athénée

Second-Empire romance, pomp and glamour is stylishly rekindled at this clandestine boutique hotel – one of the city’s first – near the Garnier opera house. Dimly lit public areas celebrate Italian opera, bijou period-styled rooms ooze a delicious boudoir intimacy and the wood-panelled bar begs lounging tête à tête.
