Hôtel de Crillon, A Rosewood Hotel

Hôtel de Crillon occupies one of Paris’ most important 18th-century façades directly on Place de la Concorde, with the Tuileries, Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré and Champs-Élysées all within easy walking distance.

The hotel reopened after a four-year transformation with 124 rooms and suites that mix historic architecture with highly tailored contemporary French design, marble bathrooms, custom artwork and an intentionally residential atmosphere.

Its 36 suites and ten signature suites provide much of the property’s character. At the top of the collection, the Grands Appartements were reimagined by Karl Lagerfeld and combine monumental proportions with one-of-a-kind decorative detail.

Sense, A Rosewood Spa is centered on an extraordinary naturally lit pool lined with thousands of gold scales, accompanied by sauna, steam, experience showers, fitness and a Himalayan salt-wall relaxation area.

Hôtel de Crillon is best for travelers who want Parisian palace culture with more design individuality than old-world formality, particularly guests drawn to history, art and the extraordinary Place de la Concorde setting.
