At the Amastan Paris ****, a warm and inviting ambience greets you as you walk through the door. The decor throughout is distinctly Parisian in style: elegant, effortless and just so. The standout library wall creates a stunning focal point in the otherwise pared-back communal spaces, while each uniquely shaped room features bespoke furniture in hip copper and wood, perfectly complementing the deep-blue and fresh white palette.

Each morning, a delicious complimentary breakfast sets you up for the day. Take your time over coffee in the bar while you make your way through emails or relax with a juice while you check the papers on the leafy terrace.

It’s perfectly located for business travellers making their way around the city. The 8th arrondissement (Paris’ central business district) is a seven-minute walk away, and both Paris’ traditional financial district, the Bourse area, and La Défense, Europe’s largest business district, are less than a 20-minute drive from the hotel. When work is done for the day, visiting cultural sites like the Champs-Elysées and international fashion boutiques on the Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Honoré is easy, as both are a stone’s throw from where you’ll return to rest your head.

The hotel’s bar transforms at night into a well-known neighbourhood nightspot, Anouk, attracting locals with its craft cocktails and light snacks. The patio, which has stone formations for seats, makes a stunning place to cement professional and personal friendships over delectable drinks and a warm evening. It’s your, and Paris’, little secret.
