Set along Rue Fondary in Grenelle, the quiet surrounding streets feature local bakeries and wine shops near the Champ de Mars.
The rooms
Cabin-style rooms pair glossy lacquered wood headboards with striped accents and terrazzo bathrooms, some opening to views of the Eiffel Tower.
The rooftop hot tub
A circular Nordic hot tub sits on the wooden rooftop deck, set beside sun loungers overlooking zinc roofs.
The gym
Technogym treadmills, an exercise bike, and free weights face full-height mirrors and a window overlooking the courtyard.
Tuco Bar & Terrace
Woven stools line the marble counter beneath wicker pendants, where bartenders pour Limoncello spritzes alongside focaccia and Italian charcuterie.
