Le Meurice
Palace hotel where Dalí kept a suite. Philippe Starck redesigned the public spaces with surrealist touches; the grandeur remains unshakeable.
What to Expect
18th-century French elegance updated with wit. Alain Ducasse runs the restaurant; afternoon tea in Dalí lounge is theatrical.
The Tip
The Dalí-inspired Bar 228 is worth a visit even if not staying. Afternoon tea is excellent.
Who You'll Find
Old money, art collectors, those who appreciate history
