Best Hotels in Paris With Eiffel Tower Views to Book Now - AFAR
"Staying near the Champs-Élysées, I find this legendary art deco palace the most fitting for a grand Paris visit: opened in 1928 and long a magnet for celebrities and royalty, it impresses with opulent Louis XV–style interiors, 244 spacious rooms with chandeliers and marble-clad bathrooms, and historic firsts for its time (two bathrooms per suite, external telephone rings, dumbwaiters). For Eiffel Tower views I’d request an upper-level suite or splurge on the Eiffel Tower Suite. Dining is world-class — it’s the first hotel in Europe with three Michelin-ranked restaurants, including three-star Le Cinq — and it houses a 50,000-bottle wine cellar 45 feet underground. The marble-clad spa feels expansive and personalized (private membership, hair salon, 55-foot pool, two hammams, treatments developed with Dr. Burgener Switzerland), and the hotel's theatrical floral displays, overseen by Jeff Leatham, bring nearly 15,000 flowers weekly." - Mary Winston Nicklin, Lindsey Tramuta
