Fodor's Expert Review Madame Rêve

You'll have the Eiffel Tower, Sacré Coeur, or the beautiful Église Saint-Eustache as your view for the night from the arching atelier-style windows of your swanky room at this elegant hotel set in the city's beautifully restored 19th-century Louvre post office. Courtyard-facing rooms have garden views, some with a private terrace. The decor mixes a soothing palette of polished wood and burnished golds along with state-of-the-art technology and cheeky touches, like the collection of original mail art beautifully displayed in the guestrooms. The hotel's stunning ground-floor café and glamorous Franco-Japanese La Plûme restaurant on the roof are definitely worth a visit, especially in warm weather when you can take advantage of the 10,000-square-foot rooftop garden to dine, sip a cocktail, or sun yourself on a beach chair. There's also a full-service spa and fitness room. What's more, you're within minutes of some of Paris's top museums, including the Centre Pompidou and the Louvre.
