General Information
What to expect: Behind the 17th-century façade of this Place Vendôme mansion—built by Louis XIV’s head architect—is an equally opulent lobby of inlaid-marble floors, carved-wood paneling, crystal chandeliers, and exotic floral arrangements. The hotel’s prestigious Right Bank location and small size attract business and leisure travelers who seek intimate accommodations without the sacrifice of service or luxury.
Amenity highlights: Reception staff are available 24 hours daily to help guests exchange currency, check flights, make restaurant and theater reservations, and arrange airport transportation or sightseeing excursions. The hotel’s British-style bar and restaurant, with its leather Chesterfield armchairs and mahogany-wood paneling, is open throughout the day, with live piano music on weekends. Public areas of the hotel are equipped for wireless Internet access (surcharge).
Insider tip: Hotel guests can take a pedestrian shortcut to the popular Musée d’Orsay—home to Impressionist paintings and Art Nouveau objets d’art—by crossing the Tuileries Gardens (two blocks from the hotel) to the Passarelle Solferino. It crosses the Seine just outside the museum on the Quai Anatole France (which is also a departure point for Seine and canal cruises).
