Our special Paris Hotel Guide correspondent Monica Guy has covered the city's popular hotels as well as its design hotel scene. So what's next? The best hotels for lovers of course. Here are her recommendations but this is strictly a hotel guide. She can't really tell you how to get a lover.
"How many people are making love around Paris right now?", wonders Amélie in Jean-Pierre Jeunet's film of the same name. Immediately there's a disconcertingly erotic but mostly grotesque flash-series of love-making scenes around the city. It's a classic, and it's probably true. People make love a lot here. Well, that's my experience anyway.
A lot of the people who make love in Paris are what the French call flâneurs: men who 'stray the city at random in pursuit of sexual or alcoholic pleasure.' The species isn't unique to Paris, but he's a common animal here. Who said it's all fair in love and war? They've never made love to a French flâneur.
