Fouquet’s Barriere is the latest high end hotel to appear in the tawny 8th arrondissement of Paris.  It is on the “luxury side” of the Champs Elysees, sitting with Louis Vuitton, Laduree and of course the very famous restaurant Fouquet’s.  Across the street is the more mainstream side of the Champs Elysees, with the Virgin Megastore, Disney and McDonald’s.

The cheapest room at Fouquet’s Barriere goes for 690 euros a night, and a duplex suite will cost you 2,800 euros a night.  If you really want a splurge, and a view of the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe, book the penthouse suite for 15,000 euros!

This marks the first luxury hotel built in Paris since the Bristol in 1928.  To read more about the Fouquet’s Barriere, read this article from Bloomberg.com.
