Hôtel Le Six

Thirty-five rooms and a handful of suites with views over the rooftops of Paris. Plays the "design hotel" card, but safely - expect a portrait of Catherine Deneuve in your room, not an edgy graffiti mural. Three star amenities like room service, wifi, and seminar room. On-site spa offers massage, steam bath and skin treatments. At the edge of Montparnasse with good subway access. An easy walk to Luxembourg Gardens or Saint-Germain. Advertised rates (starting at €375) are pricey for this hood, but there seems always to be some sort of promotion.
