It’s not just the design, by the Parisian architect Jean-Philippe Nuel, that’s turning heads — this stylish little boutique is garnering notices for its budget-friendly price tag as well. After all, it’s not every day that a new contemporary design hotel sets up shop on these staid old streets, and when one does, it’s most often priced high enough that you’d be better off hiring the architect to do up one of your rooms at home, and just staying there.
Le Général is a three-star hotel, whatever that means anymore — surely if you can’t find something to have for dinner in Paris, you don’t really deserve to eat. Anyway it’s not over-the-top luxurious, just smart, full of modern touches like counter-top basins and Philippe Starck furniture against a sedate background of neutrals and rich woods, all set off with splashes of color — floral arrangements, the odd pink wall, and details like rubber ducks in your bathroom and green apples on your pillows. At these rates satellite television and wireless internet are expected; the fitness center and the sauna are a bit above and beyond. The breakfast room, with that floral-print wallpaper, turns into a cocktail bar in the evening, and serves a hot chocolate of near-legendary status.
