Hotel Daniel Paris

Hotel Daniel at Champs Elysées
Where you might feel you have wandered
into a Marco Polo style Old Silk Road.
Intimate as a private house, Hotel Daniel glows with 18th century style Chinoiserie-chic. Step into an exotic world of handmade Chinese wallpapers, classical Toile de Jouy fabrics, oriental rugs and Arabian antiques.
It’s all very bijou-boutique.









Inside this tall, six-storey townhouse, plump English armchairs, plush Khotan carpets, Turkish silver and Lebanese furnishings reflect the owners’ eclectic travels, setting off objets d’art made from fine glass, Chinese porcelain and mother-of-pearl.
Mix all this with effortless French panache
and you have a seductive sanctuary in the heart of Paris.
I am amazed at all the beautiful wallpapers they have used on just about every wall.

One day I hope to visit but for now I will dream

    I've never stayed in this one but have stayed in some very much like it, while living in Europe. I actually prefer the secluded and quaint places over these types.

    Staying in a place like this, should be an experience everyone has at least one time in their life.

    Your post makes me miss Europe so much! Hopefully, I will be living there again one day.

    It really is beautiful. The wallpaper makes it so cozy...exactly what one needs when traveling - a cozy and welcoming place to come back to.

    Hi Gina
    Great posting as always. I heart Toile. I will dream to go there one day too. I think Paris is a lot of people's dream destination. My little girl wants to live in Paris with her friends when she grows up.(smile)
    Hope your day is going well.

    Oh, Gina! What a fabulous place! I would love to visit there, but for now I'm going to enjoy this armchair visit! WOW!

    XO,

    Sheila... who is so far behind in her blogging that I don't know if I'll ever catch up! ;-)
