"The Parisian is to the French what the Athenian was to the Greeks: no one sleeps better than he, no one is more openly frivolous and idle, no one appears more heedless.” ― Victor Hugo
I'm excited to return to Paris this weekend for another whirlwind adventure filled with hotel site visits! I was invited by Selected Escapes and Rebecca Recommends (luxury travel marketing/representation companies and Virtuoso preferred partners) to visit their portfolios' distinctive and centrally-located Paris boutique hotel properties in person. I'm touring the following nine hotels and meeting with their management to refine our relationship so when you plan your next Paris trip with Nine Muses Travel, you'll receive the special attention you deserve as our client at any of these addresses.
Brach Paris (staying as a guest)
Nolinski Paris
Cour des Vosges
Hôtel Des Grands Hommes (staying as a guest)
Hôtel Les Dames du Panthéon
Hôtel Salvia
Hôtel & Spa La Belle Juliette
Hôtel Baume
Hôtel Saint-André des Arts
There are over 1,600 hotels in Paris, and it's my job to stay on top of which ones are best suited for you, your interests, and your preferences. This is my third year in a row making a trip to Paris for hotel site visits, and you can find videos of some on the Nine Muses Travel YouTube "Hotel tours" playlist. My most-watched video (over 8,500 views) is a tour of the fabulous Belle Etoile Penthouse Suite with Terrace at Le Meurice.
A city like Paris is filled with history, often tied to its hotels. For example, Brach Paris was a huge postal sorting center from the 1970s before Philippe Starck reimagined it. Cour des Vosges is a design masterpiece housed in a former royal palace. Hôtel Saint-André des Arts is set in an early 19th century townhouse that once drew together musicians, writers, actors, and singers. Hôtel Des Grands Hommes, where I'm spending three happy nights, is where in 1919 poets André Breton and Philippe Soupault wrote The Magnetic Fields, a seminal surrealist work.
I love touring hotels, especially in Paris, to admire their art, architecture, design, local history, and unique sense of place. Our Nine Muses Travel community gravitates towards four star boutique hotels and the luxury five star experience, and that guides how I choose which invitations I accept. (You'd be amazed by how many trips I actually turn down in a year.) All my research trips are carefully chosen to be the most beneficial for your needs and interests.
As always, I invite you to follow along on my journeys on Nine Muses Travel's Facebook and Instagram. Posting each night before I go to bed helps me to capture the day's activities while they're still fresh in my mind and also allows me to wind down from a busy day of discoveries, before I drift off to sleep on a lovely bed in a beautiful hotel that might be just the perfect one for you too.
