Hôtel Bellechasse Top Pick!

OUT Review

A design hotel for the grown-up Saint Germain-loving set. No plastic pillows or ice bars at this one - just a collection of color-saturated rooms from Christian Lacroix. Mister Fashion has bedecked them in seven styles ranging from "only slightly over-stated" to "super-gay." All have flat-screens, open mini-bar, and a dock for your iPod. Many have deep and free-standing bathtubs. Warm welcome and top location - steps from the Orsay and a 10 minute stroll across the Seine to the Louvre - make this an excellent (and in-demand) stay. €180-400, depending on the season. See also Le Hôtel du Petit Moulin, the designer's first hotel foray over in the Marais.
