Le Murano Urban Resort
Best for … The Hip & Happening
To go trendy, stay at the ultra hip Murano Urban Resort. Situated on Boulevard du Temple, in the Marais area, the sleek hotel is all about cutting edge design. More than a hotel, it calls itself an Urban Resort offering super sexy rooms, but also a swanky restaurant, where Isabelle Adjani is a regular, and a glamorous spa.
Make your way past the white leather sofas, to the disco-like lift and past dark passages to the honeymoon suite: a swish room with huge round bed, funky candy colouring and a bathtub swathed in ethereal curtains.
Everything is high tech, from the changeable coloured-lighting for a pink, yellow or blue mood, to the finger-print room entry system – so very James Bond!
If budget isn’t a problem, book a suite on the upper floors. Some even have their own pools, and fantastic rooftops views to boot. Romantic and très chic!
After tasting a dish of roasted sea bass or a truffle risotto in the restaurant, you can sample one of the 150 types of vodkas in the bar or venture out for a stroll into the charming Marais neighbourhood. €350 per night.
