L'Hotel Fouquet's Barriere Est Magnifique! Haute Couture

by James Rothaar

Luxury Hotels: Hotel Fouquet's Barriere is located on Champs-Elysées and Avenue George V. The Champs-Elysées, which is frequently noted as being the most beautiful avenue in the world, is a two-kilometer strip with many of Paris' fabled cinemas, romantic cafes, and specialty luxury stores. Many of haute couture's most regarded designers and manufacturers are within walking distance to the hotel. There is even a McDonald's on the avenue if the urge for a Big Mac surfaces.

The Hotel Fouquet's Barriere is both luxurious and charming. There are 67 rooms and 40 suites. Adjacent rooms can be transformed into suites if desired, and private-butler services are available 24/7 to all guests.

The hotel's U Spa definitely rubs patrons the right way. U offers various body, facial, and beauty treatments. It also has a steam room, a sauna, and a relaxation room where herbal teas and healthy refreshments are served. The spa has a very large indoor swimming pool and a well-equipped fitness room. Guests can sign up for the Aqua Slimming course to counter the potential of weighty issues brought on by the gastronomically delightful Le Fouquet's restaurant.

Le Fouquet's, which overlooks Champs-Elysées, is an international melting pot for the rich and famous. Celebrities of various forums show up frequently to experience the delicious offerings and quaint charming atmosphere. There is an outdoor patio that is perfect for drinks and appetizers while people watching.

Rooms of the Hotel Fouquet's Barriere are ornately decorated with classical mahogany woodwork along with silks and velvets that accentuate the plush decor. Amenities include wireless Internet service, flat-screen plasma televisions, videos and music, and four telephone lines. Desks in the rooms have built in scanners, photocopiers, and fax machines.

The quaint, luxurious hotel is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World, which is a prominent organization to which many hotels and resorts apply but few are chosen. Experience a hearty slice of the good life at L'Hotel Fouquet's Barriere.
