The Pool at Hotel Costes

"A delightful restaurant takes pride of place in the statue-strewn central courtyard in the warmer months; the basement pool, with Art Deco-ish lounge chairs and lighting, is gorgeous; and the bar and its groovy music compilations are legendary"

"The hotel features luxurious guest rooms decorated in bright colors and accented with Napoleon III pieces, as well as a fitness center and outdoor swimming pool"

"The Costes boasts one of the best pools in Paris, a sybaritic, Eastern-inspired affair with an underwater music system"

"You can also enjoy a relaxing interlude at the fitness center and pool on the basement level"

"Don’t miss the indoor pool, which pulses with a submarine sound system"

"Just sneak in to try its elegant pool on the underground level"

"Those not ready to take a plunge into the celebrity pool might prefer the hip (instead of eccentric) Costes K, despite its farther location"
