THE PENINSULA PARIS
About the Castle Hotel
The Peninsula Paris - Parisian Grandeur Reimagined
Occupying an entire city block on the prestigious Avenue Kléber, The Peninsula Paris offers a distinguished address in the heart of Paris's 16th arrondissement. This Palace hotel masterfully marries the opulence of a Belle Epoque grand dame with a sophisticated contemporary edge, setting a high benchmark for luxury accommodation in the city.
Location
Positioned on Avenue Kléber, one of the twelve avenues radiating from the Place de l'Étoile, The Peninsula Paris is remarkably situated. It stands a mere five-minute walk from the Arc de Triomphe and the illustrious "Golden Triangle" encompassing the Avenues des Champs-Élysées, George V, and Montaigne, famed for their designer boutiques and high-end dining. While the immediate surroundings offer a sense of refined Parisian elegance, the energy of the city's premier shopping and entertainment districts is just a short stroll away.
Style and Character
The building itself, a meticulously restored Belle Epoque masterpiece, hints at its grandeur from the undulating glass awning at its entrance, a modern reinterpretation of Art Nouveau. Inside, painstakingly preserved period features are artfully interwoven with contemporary design elements, creating an atmosphere that feels both historic and cutting-edge. The décor pays subtle homage to The Peninsula's Hong Kong provenance, with elegant touches like embossed fan patterns on headboards. The central space is anchored by a striking crystal leaf chandelier that appears to float, enhancing the overall sense of refined opulence. It's styled almost as a Sino-French opera house, with intricate lacquered wood panelling and grand drapery, suggesting a unique cultural fusion.
Service and Facilities
Service here is a performance, delivered with all the theatre one expects from a hotel of this caliber. It begins with the doorman in crisp whites and extends to the obliging flourish of the sommelier. Guests can expect attentive service and outstanding facilities, including what is arguably the longest hotel pool in Paris. This impressive aquatic space, part of a luxuriously appointed 1,800 sq m leisure area, is complemented by treatment rooms and a substantial gym offering personal trainers by the hour. The streamlined design of the wellness areas, with its plant and mineral notes, exudes an immediate sense of well-being, refinement, and luxury.
Rooms
The 200 rooms and suites offer a sanctuary of comfort and elegance. Deluxe rooms, some featuring balconies with courtyard or Avenue Kléber views, include a seating area and a marble bathroom. The bathrooms themselves are a highlight, featuring exquisite white marble floors and walls, often enclosing deep, black marble bathtubs that evoke Mariah Carey-esque luxury, complete with integrated televisions. Standard comforts include 24-hour room service, premium bedding, and first-run movies. In-room amenities extend to minibar offerings of coffee, fine tea, soft drinks, and daily-replenished fruit platters. Junior Suites provide comfortable seating areas and marble bathrooms, while higher-category suites may offer Eiffel Tower views and private terraces. Notably, all bathrooms are equipped with spacious marble interiors, separate rain showers, deep soaking tubs, inset televisions, and luxurious amenities by Oscar de la Renta.
Food and Drink
Dining at The Peninsula Paris is an event in itself. Guests can enjoy international, Chinese, and gourmet French cuisine across several unique settings. L'Oiseau Blanc, the acclaimed rooftop restaurant, bar, and terrace, offers contemporary French dishes and spectacular city views. The artistic flourish in the desserts here is particularly noteworthy, with offerings like a biplane propeller. The hotel also features a landscaped garden patio that opens onto the street, and a stunning rooftop terrace bar with plush white sofas, an ideal spot for a cocktail with a view. The hotel's charismatic head chef, Christophe Raoux, a mentee of Alain Ducasse, oversees the culinary direction, ensuring a high standard across all dining venues.
Value for Money
As a Palace hotel, The Peninsula Paris represents a significant investment. However, the unparalleled location, meticulously restored architecture, opulent interiors, exceptional service, and world-class dining and facilities offer a comprehensive luxury experience. The attention to detail, from the marble bathrooms to the curated art, contributes to a feeling of enduring value for those seeking the pinnacle of Parisian hospitality.

Family-Friendly

A dedicated Peninsula app for kids adds an element of entertainment for younger guests. The spacious room categories, including suites, can accommodate families comfortably, ensuring a welcoming environment for all ages.
