L’HOTEL DU COLLECTIONNEUR

51-57 rue de Courcelles, 8th arrondissement hotelducollectionneur.com Taking its style from the great cruise liners of the 1930s and its name from the collectors, artists and patrons who once peopled this serene quarter in the 8th arrondissement, L’Hotel du Collectionneur feels like a journey back in time. And yet modern convenience is never far away – in each room is a smartphone offering 4G internet, international calls and a city guide. The central Patio Andalou, conceived by landscape designer Olivier Riols, who worked on the Palais-Royal gardens, is a year-round verdant oasis perfect for breakfast or a quiet moment to regroup.
