"Housed on Avenue Kléber in a Belle Époque landmark that was once the Hotel Majestic, I enjoy the Peninsula’s mix of historic glamour and modern hospitality: George Gershwin wrote “An American in Paris” here, and the renovation showcases French craftsmanship across marble-swathed public spaces and 200 guest rooms (93 suites) equipped with high-tech touches. From the glass-walled L’Oiseau Blanc rooftop restaurant the city unfolds in all directions, with many suites and the rooftop terrace offering Eiffel Tower views, and the hotel elevates arrival experiences with a green 1934 Rolls-Royce Phantom II available for guests." - Mary Winston Nicklin, Lindsey Tramuta
