NEW by Irenie Forshaw

Le Grand Mazarin, Mazarin Suite PARIS Paris welcomed a gorgeous new hotel to its Marais district in September: Le Grand Mazarin. It’s the latest addition to Maisons Pariente’s burgeoning collection of properties dotted across France, and the company’s fi rst Parisian address. Very much a boutique hotel, Le Grand Mazarin has just 61 rooms — the most exclusive of which is the Mazarin Suite. Designed by Martin Brudnizki, the one-bedroom suite is a picture of re fi ned elegance in shades of pale green and yellow. Every last detail has been thoughtfully chosen, from the tapestry bedspreads to the antique furnishings (some of which come from the famous Saint-Ouen fl ea market). From $1,580 per night.

Ra ffl es London at The OWO, The Whitehall Wing LONDON

Set within the former Old War O ffi ce — Winston Churchill’s headquarters during World War II — Ra ffl es’ fi rst hotel in the UK caused quite a stir at its opening. Following a painstaking eight-year restoration, the architectural landmark welcomed its fi rst guests in September — the fi rst time the iconic building has been open to the public in its 117-year history. The hotel will no doubt become one of the most glamorous addresses in London, with all the luxe trappings you’d expect from a Ra ffl es property. The most opulent abode is The Whitehall Wing, which occupies the entire west wing of the building. Accommodating up to 12 guests, the apartment spans six unique suites, each designed by the late French architect Thierry Despont. Expect lavish marble bathrooms, rich wooden paneling and fl oor-to-ceiling windows revealing sweeping views of the London skyline. Elsewhere, there are three restaurants helmed by Mauro Colagreco, the chef behind France’s Michelin-starred Mirazur and a 27,000-sq-ft Guerlain Spa. Price upon request.
