Le Pavillon de la Reine & Spa, Place des Vosges

Set on the storybook arcades of Place des Vosges, Le Pavillon de la Reine & Spa blends noble Parisian heritage with hushed luxury. Elegant, individually styled, air-conditioned rooms include Wi-Fi, cable flat-screen TV and a minibar; an elevator serves all floors. Mornings unfold with a buffet in the lounge or a continental tray in bed; later, the private salon and bar beckon. Guests enjoy complimentary access to the spa and fitness, complete with hot tub and hammam, plus 24/7 reception, concierge and valet. With Victor Hugo’s house steps away and Chemin Vert metro nearby, the Louvre is about 15 minutes by transport—yet the hotel’s courtyard calm feels worlds apart.
