The Parisian palace that reinvented French service in 2014, with Asian rigour and an almost obsessive eye for detail.

“Rooftop L'Oiseau Blanc with 360° views of the Arc de Triomphe and Eiffel Tower, in a replica Blériot aeroplane from 1913.”

The Peninsula Paris occupies a Haussmannian building from 1908 on avenue Kléber, 400 metres from the Arc de Triomphe. We tested a Deluxe room: 45 m², French oak parquet, Carrara marble in the bathroom, touchscreen tablet that controls lighting, curtains and temperature. The 1,800 m² spa in the basement houses a 20-metre pool under stone vaults, hammam, sauna, and 11 treatment cabins. The brigade numbers 600 staff for 200 rooms, a ratio we feel in every interaction. From 2 366 € per night, a rate that reflects one of the capital's most meticulously calibrated services. The gourmet restaurant L'Oiseau Blanc (1 Michelin star) serves contemporary French cuisine under a glass roof, with this unbeatable view that justifies booking three weeks in advance ✨

Who is it for?

Who we recommend it to

We recommend the Peninsula to travellers who place service above decor, and who are willing to pay the price. It's a hotel for fortysomething couples and older, high-end business stays, wedding anniversaries, clients accustomed to Asian palaces. Families are welcome but the clientele remains predominantly adult, international, discreet.

The building

Architecture and interiors

The Peninsula Paris occupies a Haussmannian building from 1908 on avenue Kléber, entirely restored between 2010 and 2014. Interiors by Henry Leung: French oak parquet, original mouldings, Carrara marble in the bathrooms. The 200 rooms range from 45 to 280 m², with touchscreen tablets that control lighting, curtains and temperature. The 1,800 m² spa in the basement houses a 20-metre pool under 19th-century stone vaults.

At the table

Restaurants, bar, service

Three tables at the Peninsula: LiLi for Cantonese cuisine, Le Lobby for tea and light meals, L'Oiseau Blanc on the sixth floor (1 Michelin star) for contemporary French gastronomy. The latter serves under a glass roof, in a replica Blériot aeroplane from 1913, with 360° views of the Arc de Triomphe and Eiffel Tower. Book three weeks in advance for rooftop dinner.
