The Ritz Hotel Paris

The Ritz Hotel Paris enjoys a prime location on the Place Vendôme in the heart of Paris, and is one of the city’s most famous and distinguished hotels. Cesar Ritz is credited with converting the wonderfully ornate building – originally built as a private dwelling in the early 18 th Century – into an opulent luxury hotel in 1898, when he proclaimed that he had created the ‘perfect hotel’. Typical Parisian hauteur perhaps, but in the century since its inception, The Ritz has been regarded as the pace setter in luxury Paris hotels, and is still an elegant and palatial hotel today. The Ritz’s surroundings are a kaleidoscope of culture, shopping and entertainment, and the chic Ritz Hotel is resplendent in this salubrious Parisian district. All of the capital’s unique sights and sounds are on the very doorstep, and there is seemingly no end of things to see and do. Paris is one of the world’s most romantic cities, and what could be finer than enjoying a cruise down the River Seine, sampling the irreproachable Gallic cuisine in one of the city’s splendid restaurants or simply enjoying the stunning view from the top of the Eiffel Tower. The Ritz is an elegant base for any romantic visit to the City of Light.

The Ritz Hotel Paris has 175 rooms and suites. Opulence and elegance are keywords, and the facilities will surpass the expectations of even the most discerning hotel guest. Many of the rooms and suites look out onto the unforgettable sight of the Place Vendôme, and all possess typically Parisian chic and quintessential French style. Dining at the Ritz is an exquisite experience; whether you choose L’Espadon or The Ritz Club, you can be assured that the cuisine, the service and the ambience are like no other. The Ritz Hotel Paris’ bars are almost as famous as the hotel itself – The Bar Hemingway, The Bar Cambon and The Pool Bar are distinguished settings in which to enjoy a cocktail, a glass of fine champagne or just to watch the world bustle by outside. The Ritz also offers a number of simply stunning rooms and suites for banqueting and events, and the leisure facilities are impressive.
