...have an exclusive partnership with the museum to give their guests VIP tickets (you'll get to jump to the front of the line to see what some people are calling one of the biggest art events of the year). If you really want to keep with the art theme, ask for the Pissarro suite at the Hôtel du Louvre (one of the Concorde hotels), where the artist lived and painted. Room rates start at $260 and include breakfast and a box of Warhol-themed chocolates. The offer is good from March 18 to June...
