La Fantaisie

The place

A green modernist building among the classic facades of the 10th arrondissement. Inside, Martin Brudnizki's maximalism takes over — bright color, floral pattern, and a courtyard garden thick with flowers and greenery.

The 73 rooms and suites soften the volume. Pastel and sunny tones, playful furniture, floral touches; sumptuous bedding, green marble vanities, Holidermie in the bath.

The spa runs deep: a large Jacuzzi, a hammam, a sauna, hot and cold baths. Of the three places to eat and drink, Golden Poppy leans California — vegetables and seafood — while Bar Sur Le Toit takes the rooftop, the city laid out below.
