The best luxury hotels in the world are constantly trying to one-up each other; witness the rise (and fall) of the uber-luxe 5-star plus hotels in Dubai. The more dignified, less garish approach to upscale accommodations is to provide class and luxury that provides a sense of place, and to keep it that way.  This explains why the Four Seasons George V, in Paris France, is the best hotel in the world. It’s actually on every important “Best of the Best” hotels list (Forbes, Conde Nast, etc) for several reasons. Neighborhood: Now, hotels are not resorts; there are no sprawling grounds and golf courses on the Four Seasons George V property. Instead, we get a stay in the 8th arrondissement; this most upscale Paris district extends from the Seine to the Arc d’Triomphe, with the Champ-Elysees, luxury shopping, and views of the Eiffel Tower. The Staff: From the moment I walked through the large revolving doors, I knew I was in for a hotel experience par excellence.
