Samokatus Hotels

Set in the upscale 16th arrondissement, Brach Paris is a striking 5-star boutique hotel masterfully designed by Philippe Starck within a former 1970s postal hub. Guests can expect a stunning underground wellness club with a 22-meter pool, an experiential rooftop garden with chickens, and eclectic, warm-toned rooms. However, some dining service inconsistencies and occasional noise from rooftop parties can disrupt the luxurious vibe.

Set in a beautifully restored 17th-century mansion in Le Marais, this ultra-exclusive boutique hotel features just 12 rooms and suites overlooking the iconic Place des Vosges. Designed to feel like a private Parisian residence, it blends historic painted beams with contemporary 1970s-inspired decor, complemented by a Roman bath and an outdoor tea terrace.
