โ€œI love staying at the Grand Hyatt Hรดtel Martinez. After a long flight and before I walk the red carpet, I hit the treadmill and then indulge in a massage. If you bring your bikini, head to the hotelโ€™s private beach, Z Plage.โ€ โ€“ Lโ€™Orรฉal Paris Australian ambassador Megan Gale

If you like a little entertainment with your dining, Le Tube is where Robert Pattinson was spotted in the wee hours of the morning. Otherwise, for an authentically French experience, head to the labyrinthine Le Suquet quarter.โ€ โ€“ Anna Saunders, marie claire executive editor โ€“ digital
