The fashion world and the hotel world don’t cross over as often as they should. Especially in Paris, which is odd, since it’s the fashion world (and its associated industries) that drives much of the demand for extraordinary hotels in the first place. One imagines the situation is only temporary, though — a few more results on the level of La Maison Champs Elysées and it’s hard to imagine all the big fashion houses won’t be in on the act.
This one, in a small irony, happens to have turned to a Belgian designer for its haute-couture inspiration. La Maison Champs Élysées was, and in large part remains, a decently stylish, somewhat minimalist boutique hotel. But for its new couture suites they’ve called in Maison Martin Margiela, and it’s safe to say the results are more than just decently stylish.
It’s a good match — the simplicity of the Margiela look translates well from runways to rooms. Here black, white and blond wood go an extraordinarily long way, and the visual spareness accentuates the size of the suites — an overstuffed Parisian hotel room can easily feel even smaller than it is.
And the Margiela design team has been given free reign in the public spaces as well. La Maison Champs Elysées contains a leafy little patio, a dark and clubby cigar bar, a warmly lit postmodern fantasy of a bar and a lounge that looks like a piano bar in heaven. Add to that a fine little restaurant, La Table du 8, and you’ve got it all: boutique looks, fashion bona fides, and luxe creature comforts, all in Paris’s famed Golden Triangle.
Note: Tablet recommends the Couture Suites, a partnership with Maison Martin Margiela.

What I liked:
The public space was very nicely designed and we enjoyed the breakfast room very much.
What the hotel could do better:
I was very disappointed about the 'simple' room! It felt like in a room of a large hotel chain and not like a design boutique hotel. Everything was there, but all had a feel of standard and not 5* boutique. The hotel was renovated 2 years ago, but our bath room looked much older.....

What the hotel could do better:
They gave my room to someone else and pretended to "upgrade" me to a bunker room. nothing else available. Clearly marked do not disturb, but cleaning ladies rang the bell anyway.
Roomservice is poor selection and seriously over priced. Even the hotel has only been open for 1 year, everything looks a little damaged, as cheap materials have been used. Also noisy. Woke up several times.
