A few minutes from the Champs-Elysées, Hôtel du Collectionneur regales the splendour of the thirties with pure art deco styling. Expect to be wowed as soon as you cross the threshold, as noble period materials are majestically combined with more contemporary fabrics. Across from the lobby, the magnificent garden designed by landscaper Olivier Riols is serenity distilled. At 800 metres squared, it is one of the largest hotel gardens in Paris.
The luxurious rooms retain an elegant art deco spirit, while the restaurant, Safran, is guided by the inspiration of its chef and offers modern, delicate French cuisine. Bay windows open onto the flowered terraces of the retro-chic Purple Bar; with a creative cocktail list to be sipped in one of the many cosy alcoves.
For more relaxation, head up to Spa Mosaic – an earthly paradise, with 400m2 dedicated to well-being. With a very spacious jaccuzzi, hammam and fitness room, there’s also the added bonus of a personal trainer on demand. Yet another reason to stay in this five-star marvel.
