Four Seasons Hotel George V

A former private residence, Relais Christine is a charming boutique hotel nestled in Paris’ Left Bank in Saint-Germain des-Prés.

With just 48 rooms and suites, the hotel has a wonderfully intimate feel. Antique furnishings, rich fabrics and exquisite marble bathrooms give rooms an undeniably French feel, and some come with balconies from which to admire this corner of the capital.

The cosy lounge with fireplace is the perfect place to relax with a morning coffee and the papers, or a glass of wine before you set off to discover the Latin Quarter which lies right on your doorstep.

A paved courtyard sits between the front and back buildings and leads to the entrance. A beautiful garden, accessible to only a few hotel guests, is a real oasis of calm where greenery is laced across the walls and flowers tumble from the balconies above.

There is also a Guerlain spa with Jacuzzi, sauna, exercise room and private treatment rooms where you can relax and unwind.

A selection of ten luxury apartments on the Place du Trocadéro in the glamorous 16th arrondissement of Paris, with just the Jardins du Trocadéro and the Seine between you and the Eiffel Tower.

The apartments range from 140 square metres (1507 square feet) to 300 square metres (3230 square feet), with one to four bedrooms, all in a grand, quintessential Parisian Haussmann-style building.

This is in magnificent contrast to the interior of the apartments, which are all spacious, understated and graced with designer decoration by the talented Rémi Tessier to make you feel at home from the moment you enter.

To ensure you settle in, all the apartments offer services such as a concierge ready and willing to tend to your every need, valet parking and a housekeeper who will prepare breakfast. A professional chef can handle all your meals and there are a range in-home personal care services to soothe and pamper on request such as massages, hair-styling, manicures, pedicures, and much more.

Step onboard this legendary train and travel back to the golden age of the 20s and 30s, for a journey that combines adventure and style. Crisscrossing Europe, you’ll roll through sublime scenery to some of the continent’s most alluring cities, such as Paris, Venice, Budapest, Amsterdam, Brussels and the Alps.
