CHEVAL BLANC PARIS
France
With properties in Courchevel, St Barts, St-Tropez and the Maldives, LVMH’s Cheval Blanc brand has returned to its home ground with a soon-to-open flagship property – its first city location – in the heart of the French capital. Taking up residence in the former La Samaritaine department store and perched on the banks of the River Seine, the 72-room property oozes home-away-from-home vibes. Plush, tactile natural materials in neutral hues are complemented by an exceptional collection of art; you’ll find sculptures by Philippe Anthonioz, canvases by Vik Muniz and pieces by Laurence Montano decorating the hallways. For sweeping views of Paris from Montmartre to the Eiffel Tower, head to the rooftop on the seventh floor.
