Why Stay Here
Location & Views
Set on Place Vendôme, one of the most elegant squares in Paris, Ritz Paris offers an unbeatable location for luxury travelers. The Louvre, Tuileries Garden, and Rue Saint-Honoré’s designer boutiques are all just steps away. Many rooms offer picturesque views of the square or the hotel’s private gardens — a rare Parisian luxury.
Dining & Experiences
Culinary excellence is at the heart of the Ritz experience. L’Espadon, the hotel’s Michelin-starred restaurant, delivers seasonal tasting menus in a regal setting. Bar Hemingway is a literary icon, while Salon Proust serves refined afternoon tea. Guests can indulge in immersive experiences like pastry workshops at the Ritz Escoffier School or treatments at the Ritz Club & Spa, complete with its signature indoor pool.
Architecture & Design
Originally opened in 1898, the Ritz Paris underwent a meticulous four-year renovation completed in 2016. The result preserves the Belle Époque charm while incorporating discreet modern luxuries. Interiors, designed by Thierry W. Despont, feature gilded mirrors, silk draperies, and antique furnishings that reflect the hotel’s legacy and the elegance of a bygone Paris.
Personalized Service
Expect legendary service shaped by decades of hosting royalty, celebrities, and statesmen. From private airport transfers to bespoke shopping excursions, the Ritz concierge crafts every detail. A dedicated butler service is available in select suites. Sustainability is addressed through elegant touches, like in-room filtered water carafes and an eco-conscious spa philosophy.







Avelia’s Take
We choose Ritz Paris for guests who want the grandeur of a palace with the intimacy of personalized service. It’s a place where classic Parisian style meets modern luxury, and every detail — from spa rituals to turndown chocolates — feels intentional.
