Le Bristol Paris

"With almost 200 rooms and suites, Le Bristol , a Paris institution and Palace-designated hotel, is one of the largest in the city, but it retains a chic sense of intimacy that many far smaller ones lack. Here, there’s an airiness to the grandiosity, largely driven by the meticulous garden at its core, but also in the pastel color palette (be it light gray-blue, the color of a Parisian spring sky or Petit Trianon mint green) found throughout the bright and spacious rooms, and the famed nautical-themed rooftop pool under the building’s mansard roof. The rooms facing Faubourg Saint-Honoré, the city’s most famous shopping street, have exceptional light, while the ones facing the interior courtyard are wonderfully serene. There’s even a new, sweet, resident of its lobby, Socrate, a Burmese kitten, to welcome guests. Le Bristol will never be the hippest of the five-stars and that’s precisely why we love it. Timeless. Midnight in Paris was filmed here! Highlights: This is a classic hotel– they offer spectacular staff service, and a grand but homey experience. They are great with kids in terms of amenities and the spa offers children’s treatments too."

"This is a hotel with a unique, classical French vibe. The best thing I could commend here is the service. Be it at the lobby, to the bar, and to room service -- everything was spot on. End the day with a drink at Le Bristol, perfect for intimate, hushed conversations."

"A luxury hotel with a rich history, Le Bristol has been a preferred stay for celebrities. Its elegance and classic charm, coupled with modern amenities, make it a sought-after destination. "
