Vice Versa Hotel
Paris
Decidedly unconventional. That's one way
to describe the latest offering in the City
of Light – a hotel inspired by the theme of
the Seven Deadly Sins. With overblown
décor in every corner, it's a feast for the
eye and each floor has a different ‘sin’
theme. Laze in the name of sloth under
a ceiling of butterflies and birds or revel
in the cheeky, lace-filled sensuality of
lust – and all rooms have flatscreen TVs,
WiFi and minibars. Located 500m from
Convention Metro station, it's also just a
hop from the city centre.
