Brach Paris
It may be a tad off the beaten path, but it's safe to say this is the only hotel in Paris where the eggs for your breakfast omelet come fresh from the rooftop chicken coop—just one of the things that sets this superchic Philippe Starck–designed hotel apart. Besides unusually spacious art-centric rooms (some with balconies), guests can enjoy the heated rooftop terrace with Eiffel Tower views and a sizable gym, a tiny gem of a spa, and two (small) pools. On the ground floor, the sleek cocktail bar, café (with delicious pastries by Best Craftsman of France Yann Brys), and restaurant benefit from rooftop garden seating.
