Hôtel K, Baerenthal 
$$$$

Baerenthal
France

Tel: 33 3 87 06 50 85

Deep in a storybook-perfect forest in the eastern region of Moselle, the sleek Hôtel K is the project of chef Jean-Georges Klein and his wife, Nicole, and across the street from his three-Michelin-star restaurant, L'Arnsbourg. Don't expect cuckoo clocks and knotty pine here—the hotel is furnished with gorgeous contemporary Italian furniture, and the mood is more Bauhaus-meets-Tokyo than gemütlichkeit. The 12 rooms are large and light with niceties such as ash gray wool–upholstered armchairs and a free minibar stocked with beer and fruit juice. Bathrooms have separate tubs and showers as well as shaded peekaboo windows looking into the bedroom. A country breakfast is served in the stylish lounge-lobby downstairs, and on cool nights, a fire burns in a rotating steel chimney in front of a red Man Ray–esque lips-shaped sofa.

When to go: The piney freshness of the forest makes this a great summer destination, and heavy snow turns it into a romantic winter getaway.
Which room to book: Risotto has fine views and a balcony. For more space, spring for Gazpacho, a junior suite with a soaking tub for two.
Amenities: Bar/lounge
