This angular, 32-floor glass high-rise is an ultra-sleek dose of Parisian joie de vivre in the city’s Gold Coast. Boasting 415 luxury guest rooms, two must-try dining and drinking spots in Café des Architectes and Le Bar, and 10,000 square feet of meeting space, it’s an appealing option with serious Continental flair. 20 E.
