In this episode, we navigate the charmingly cramped world of Parisian hotels. From the struggle of hauling oversized suitcases up spiral staircases to the mechanical evolution of the elevator, we explore how Paris moved from hydraulic marvels at the World’s Fairs to the “sardine tin” lifts of today. Along the way, we detour into the history of French Creole, the haunting legacy of the Vél d’Hiv, and a ghostly urban legend from a London hospital.
