Paris
in Île-de-France

Welcome to the Chopard universe, this beautiful new boutique hotel is luxury at its finest. Every room is unique and the whole place feels more like a townhouse rather than a hotel. Expensive for sure, but in our honest opinion, if you are looking to splurge on a unique experience, 1 Place Vendôme is the place to do it. 

Pierre Touitou, adding to his already glaringly golden Parisian enterprise of Vivant and Déviant, opened 19 Saint Roch. Located conveniently on the Rue Saint-Roch just meters away from the Pyramides metro stop, this newest venture remains loyal to its former Japanese restaurant roots with an open kitchen taking centre stage. Oak wood furniture lines the walls, bars and cabinets offset the monochrome tiled flooring and the stainless steel counter top becomes the prime sitting area for the best views upon the kitchen. On the menu? A steak tartare garnished with capers, chives and seasonal flowers; a fried daikon cake with a dollop of green pepper mayonnaise and a miso-vanilla ice cream soaked within a sweet rhubarb puree. Exquisite.
