A visit to Europe should be high on your list of things to do before you die. Everyone has their favorite destinations, but certain ones are universal. When it comes to the most visited country on the continent, France is the winner each and every year. There are many reasons, but one city comes to mind.

Is there anything more opulent than the city of Paris, France, itself? Well, actually, there is. The Four Seasons Hotel George V in Paris is the epitome of luxury Parisian style. Even if you do not stay at this hotel for a night, take the time to visit the property.

The Parisians practically invented traditional and class, which is why it should come as no surprise that this hotel is nothing but the absolute best. In a city that is well known for its small hotel rooms, this is one spot that boasts vast rooms for all guests to enjoy.

After entering your room, you walk out to your private terrace. What do you see? The Eiffel Tower. Now that is a view! Your room is nothing to laugh at either. Authentic tapestries from the 17th century decorate the walls for a true Parisian feel.

Your room, in fact, is so nice you may not leave during your stay. Think marble and gold. Need an adult beverage? Fine crystal stemware and a collection of beverages await. The bathroom is so over the top, you might not leave it!

The Four Season Hotel George V is so nice that you will want to do something that simply is not done in other hotels. No, not steal the towels. You will want to walk the interior of the hotel to just take it in before heading out into Paris proper.

Those that want to indulge in a bit of extra pampering will find that spa services offered at this hotel include a few unique delights. Enjoy a coconut or vanilla scrub as you stare out the window onto the Parisian street scene. Allow your mind to wander as a massage therapist begins to work out the kinks.

It may be hard to come back to reality once your spa treatment is through, though it will not be hard to picture those 18th century aristocrats walking in and out of this hotel. Make sure to book an extra long stay at the top hotel in all of Paris. You will not regret one moment of the time spend at this resort.

If you make it to Paris on a vacation or business trip, you would be wise to splurge a bit and live it up. A night at the Four Seasons will do just for you. With room prices starting around 700 Euros, it is expensive but worth it.
