We take an unbelievably chic stay at Hotel Recamier in Paris.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n If you’re considering a romantic (or wild) New Year’s Eve in Paris – lucky you – then you should definitely be considering Hotel Recamier<\/a>. Forget the big old dinosaurs of the Parisian Hotel scene (where do you think you are, a Wes Anderson movie?). Instead, opt for the independent and unique charm of Recamier, a self appointed Left Bank ‘bijou’ that really lives up to the quaint perfection that sometimes misused term implies.<\/p>\n Hidden behind the trees on Place Saint Suplice – which\u00a0Dan Brown fans (are there still any?) will recognise from\u00a0The DaVinci Code\u00a0<\/em>– it’s a cosy and super stylish little boutique hotel with some of the best interior design we’ve seen in a while. Think 20th century eclecticism with a real focus on quality details and finishing; everything from beautifully wrought mirrors to impeccable light-fittings and even extra-lush Egyptian towels are all correct and present at Recamier, which really matters at this kind of level. Fortunately, the service is no less impressive, with hand-delivered breakfast in bed (hello basket of dangerously buttery croissants and morning cheeseboard), well-pressed\u00a0and attentive staff, and even an occasional appearance from the owner, veteran hotelier, Sylvie de Lattre, to be expected. If that’s not enough for you, there are even custom-made perfumes in all the bathrooms and\u00a0a clutch of wonderful restaurants\u00a0in the surrounding area – who wants to eat dinner in a hotel anyway?\u00a0Really, it just doesn’t get much more Parisian-fantasy-land than this.<\/p>\n
