The Hôtel de Crillon in Paris is a perfect example of a five-star luxury hotel. This opulent palace was built in the 18th century, coming into the possession of the Comte de Crillon in the late 1700s, who gave his name to the building. The palace became a magnificent hotel in 1909, retaining its characteristic French grandeur, and now represents some of the finest five-star accommodation in Paris.

Today, the Hôtel de Crillon is a member of the ‘Leading Hotels of the World’ group, a collection of some of the premier hotels across the globe. It is easy to see why the Paris hotel deserves this title. This prominent accommodation choice celebrates its heritage and its location in the heart of one of the most vibrant cities in Europe and is a luxurious base from which to enjoy Paris.

The grand Hôtel de Crillon Paris has 134 bedrooms and suites, all of which are immaculately presented and individually appointed. The most prestigious accommodations at the Crillon are the signature suites, namely the Bernstein and the Louis XV suites, which are the embodiment of Parisian splendour. However, the rooms make up only part of the Crillon Hotel experience.

The in-house restaurants offer a superb selection of French haute cuisine, particularly in the refined environment of Les Ambassadeurs restaurant. Dining can also be incorporated into meetings and private events, which along with the period furnishings and superior service make the Hôtel de Crillon a formidable conference venue. The hotel also offers a fitness centre and on site boutique, bringing Parisian shopping even closer. Much of the Paris cityscape can also be enjoyed from the terraces of the hotel.

The Crillon Hotel occupies a great location in the centre of Paris, overlooking the Place de la Concorde at the eastern end of the Champs-Elysées. Both the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre are within walking distance. France’s capital city has a well-justified reputation as one of the most artistic cities in Europe, and Paris has more iconic sights and attractions than can be believed. From the imposing Gothic façade of the Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral to the bohemian heritage of Montmartre, the world famous Musée d’Orsay to the sumptuous Palace of Versailles, the City of Lights cannot fail to impress.
