Dreaming of a trip to the City of Lights? Here's your accommodation inspiration in the form of the crème de la crème of the Parisian hotels already approved by seasoned travelers.
Headed up by the fine équipe of the C.O.Q Hotel, Montecristo has settled on the left bank, just a stone's throw away from the Jardin des Plantes. Inspired by the world of Alexandre Dumas, Montecristo boats 19th century decor with Chinese porcelain, Persian carpets, and bamboo furniture. Also of note is the rum bar (Bar 1802), already a well-known location among the Parisian night owls. Another bonus? The hotel houses a pool lined with exotic plants.
