Luxury hotel with spa, Cantonese & French dining, Eiffel Tower views




























































"Designed to look like a pine cone plucked from the forest floor, Anne Coruble’s Joyau des Pins (“Jewel of the Pines”) is laden with symbolism at The Peninsula Paris. Composed of 13 layers in a nod to the Provençal tradition of 13 Christmas desserts, it weaves together cedar-toasted rice mousse, pine-nut praline, shortbread with crispy rice and pine nuts, and a dulce de leche of pine-nut miellat, with aromas reminiscent of resins and the woods. Serves 8, €105, limited edition, preorder for pickup." - Mary Winston Nicklin

"At The Peninsula Paris , Pastry Chef Anne Coruble turns afternoon tea into a Christmas reverie. Her new winter menu unfolds like a story told in spices and citrus — cinnamon rolls glazed with cassia, orange marmalade-filled spiced cakes, pine nut mochi and a speculoos-praline bar that recalls childhood indulgence. But her pièce de résistance is Joyau des Pins, this year’s bûche de Noël: a sculptural 13-layer ode to the Provençal tradition of thirteen desserts. With notes of pine, rice, honey and wood, it tastes like a walk through a winter forest — refined, nostalgic and perfect for the season." - Ty Gaskins

"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

"When we visit Paris, our room at The Peninsula Paris looks over the Eiffel Tower." - Andrew Young

"A stone’s throw from the Arc de Triomphe and housed in the former palace of the exiled Queen Isabella II of Spain (later the Hotel Majestic, where George Gershwin wrote An American in Paris, and then the Ministry of Defense), this hotel manages to honor its illustrious past while operating as thoroughly modern: one minute I’m gazing out a Beaux-Arts balcony dreaming of Brassai’s Paris At Night, another I’m using the in-room iPad to submit requests that are executed within minutes (I’ve never had a pair of pants pressed faster in my life). Whenever friends travel to Paris for both business and pleasure, I tell them I know just the place." - Vogue
