This Boutique Hotel in Paris' 8th Arrondissement Is Steps Away From the Champs-Elysees and Has Balconies With Eiffel Tower Views

"Driving past the glittering Triangle d'Or, between the luxury boutiques of Avenue Montaigne and the grandeur of Avenue George V, I nearly missed the unassuming facade. Flanked by the Four Seasons Hotel George V and across from the Bulgari Hotel Paris, the 19th-century mansion gives little away from the outside. Step through its doors, however, and you enter the world of a modern Parisian marquis-elegant and intimate, refined without pretense."

"The location quickly became my favorite part of the stay. I could wander the cobblestone streets, pause for a café au lait and macaron at a corner café, or window-shop along the designer arcades, all within minutes of my room. Each time I returned, the doorman greeted me with a warm smile, and the concierge was ready with thoughtful suggestions-from the best bistro for lunch to a walking route that threaded together hidden galleries and garden courtyards."

"Inside, the Library Lounge drew me in with its art books, ambient lighting, and velvet chairs. My suite wasn't opulent, but it was quietly elegant and comfortably spacious, with a separate sitting area perfect for unwinding after a day out. From the bedroom window, I could glimpse the city rooftops and even the tip of the Eiffel Tower, glowing softly at dusk-a view that never lost its magic."

Hôtel de Sers sits just off the Champs-Élysées in a 19th-century mansion flanked by luxury hotels and boutiques. The location allows short walks to designer arcades and quiet cobblestone streets, with concierge-curated routes and bistro recommendations. Interior spaces include a Library Lounge with art books and velvet chairs and suites that are quietly elegant with separate sitting areas. Room windows offer rooftop views and glimpses of the Eiffel Tower at dusk. The restaurant emphasizes fresh, local ingredients and a garden-patio atmosphere. Weekends bring a serene hush as nearby offices and boutiques close.
