Murano Urban Resort in Paris Makes Hot Pink Faux-Fur Look Cool

Where: 13 Boulevard Du Temple, Paris, France, 75003

When a hotel round-up catches our eye that's called coolest hotels in Paris, we usually find the said hotels are actually not that cool. But it looks like we've been proven wrong this time because we are now pretty convinced that the Murano Urban Resort is a truly funky place to stay.

We've already been impressed by the fingerprint entry system for the rooms at the Murano, but there seems to be a lot more. Just for starters, know this: the elevator is lined with hot pink faux-fur! [Ed Note: Hot pink fur is so very Cher Horowitz, no?]

It's also one of those hotels where you can change the lighting to suit your mood (good, if we ever figure out what kind of lighting fits which mood), and the apparently comfortable beds are resting on platforms, which somehow gives us the illusion that we're pretty important people. And the lobby is so funky we might not even get past it to get to our room.

The smallest rooms start at €264 ($365) in July; the "extra large" Murano suite is just a little more at €1,500 ($2,075). Yes, cool costs. But it's cool.
