Maybe "discrete" is the word that best define Relais Christine, an adorable small property in the heart of the Parisian Quartier Latin. A 13th-century abbey was converted into this charming boutique hotel hidden away in a courtyard on a quiet street very close to Notre Dame and the banks of the river Seine. There are only 48 rooms, all with different sizes and exclusive over-ornate decorations, usually overlooking the beautiful hotel's gardens. A beautiful breakfast service happens daily on its large living room and downstairs there is a surprising Spa Guerlain, including a Finnish sauna and a mosaic jacuzzi.
