5-star hotels & palaces in Paris

One guide per palace: landmarks, arriving by chauffeur, transfers and how to organise the stay.

Journal · 5-star hotels & palaces

Arriving at a palace is part of the stay itself: the entrance, the drop-off, the luggage, the welcome. For each major Paris hotel we detail the venue’s landmarks, its neighbourhood, the mobility points to watch and how to organise transfers from the airport or the station.

These guides serve travellers as much as the assistants and concierges who prepare a stay: they complement our chauffeur for concierges and luxury hotels and our airport and private jet transfers. Also see the fine-dining tables often attached to these hotels.
