For years the epicentre of luxury hotels has been the Golden Triangle in the city's 8th arrondissement, however eastern Paris has finally laid claim to its very own five-star hotel. The Boutet is fully deserving of such an accolade. Located in the trendy Charonne district of Paris, just a stone’s throw from the Place de la Bastille, Le Boutet ticks all the boxes.

Previously a cabinetmaker’s workshop from 1926, it subsequently became a chocolate factory. The beautiful façade has been reworked in the style of a factory with mosaics and Art Deco flair. The use of materials such as concrete, wood and polished metal also harks back to its manufacturing history; all of which can be attributed to the talented duo, architect Vincent Bastié and designer, Astrid Dieterlen.

The most daring aspect of this hotel is the rooms; designed for the most part by two students from école Boulle. The terraced garden is a haven of peace overlooking the rooftops of Paris. Think eco-friendly light bulbs, waste treatment and a water-saving initiatives.

The spa, hamman and sauna are equally as impressive. The blue and white tiled micro-pool is chic and intimate. The Boutet is proof that in our frenzied search for the most beautiful Parisian hotels, this part of town can no longer be ignored.
