Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris
More photosThe Four Seasons Hotel George V is a legendary Art Deco landmark that has defined Parisian luxury since it first opened in 1928. Originally designed by architect Georges Wybo, the property was transformed into a Four Seasons hotel in 1999. Today, its interiors—masterfully curated by designer Pierre-Yves Rochon—blend classical French elegance with modern sophistication, featuring everything from 18th-century tapestries to contemporary sculptural lighting.
One of the hotel’s most famous signatures is its spectacular floral displays. Under the artistic direction of Jeff Leatham, the property is perpetually transformed by thousands of fresh flowers, making the lobby and courtyard feel like an ever-changing botanical masterpiece. It is also a culinary heavyweight, holding an impressive six Michelin stars across its three on-site restaurants, including the renowned Le Cinq.
History buffs might be interested to know that the hotel served as a social hub for intellectuals and artists throughout the 20th century. Legends like The Beatles famously stayed here during their French tours, and it’s said that Paul McCartney wrote “Can’t Buy Me Love” while staying in the hotel.
Located in the heart of the “Golden Triangle,” the hotel is steps away from the Champs-Élysées and world-class fashion houses on Avenue Montaigne. Iconic landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, and the Grand Palais are all within easy walking distance, placing guests at the epicenter of Parisian culture and high-end style.
Expert reviews
“This Golden Triangle mainstay is difficult to top in terms of luxury, service and price. Capacious guest rooms incorporate styles of different eras for a result that’s a little bit Marie-Antoinette, a touch Joséphine and unmistakably French.”
“As poised and polished as the day it opened in 1928, this superb hotel’s original plaster detailing and 17th-century tapestries have been restored, the bas-reliefs regilded, and the marble-floor mosaics rebuilt tile by tile, adding up to an opulence rarely equalled in the city.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Paris.
“From the moment you walk through the golden revolving door into Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris, you are transported to the early 1900s, a time when the city sparkled in all of its rich-textured and fine-tapestried grandeur.”
“Palatial comfort, exquisite old-world refinement and the most extravagant flower arrangements in the city sums up this historic hotel by the Champs-Elysées. Paired with its dazzling mirage of aristocratic Paris is a gastronomic galaxy of stars across its three Michelin restaurants and a new spa with champagne bar.”

Superb hotel, such welcoming service orientated staff - arrogant self indulgent guests
The hotel, staff and food are superb. Nothing is too much.
We were on the top floor, excellent views, beautiful bedroom.
The hotel is well situated for everything whether walk, car or metro
If it wasn't for some of the guests it would be exceptional.
Too many self-indulgent, arrogant guests - such a shame

the worst place to stay in, not worth single euro
linen
Where to start: the staff - rude, arrogant, ignorance, they just don't care you there, especially at reception, concierge service is worthless - forgot all the requests or could not make it. Cherry on top - they forgot about my birthday, even though I reminded twice at booking and at check in, so just ignored it, completely. But left me rotten fruits at check in, well thanks for that. The hotel is the entrance courtyard on the one hand with numerous random people coming there to take a picture or sit on at the lobby but from the other it restricting the freedom of movement of hotel guests due to the numerous guards of other guests blocking an entire wing on the floor and frightening passing guests! This is unacceptable from the other! The comfort and safety one guest shouldn't be limited by another! All guests are equal and if you have no idea what hospitality is then you don't deserve even 1 star.

We had very high expectations, and George V vastly exceed all of them.
Absolutely everything. Our room was elegant, well appointed and very comfortable. I cannot say enough about the staff and their over-the-top service. Garry and Antoine at the front desk, Alice at the Concierge desk, Ana and so many more in Le Galerie, as well as everyone we encountered in our several meals delivered by room service, made us feel as we were the hotel’s only guest. I chose George V for our five days in Paris because my wife of 49 years has always wanted to stay there. Finally, on our sixth visit to the City of Light, we got to experience the excellence that is George V. While the cost is high, the value is outstanding; the property was so wonderful that we didn’t want to leave.
Only one thing: the closet is tiny, such that we were unable to hang most of our clothes.

Other Paris hotels
Saint James, Paris
The Saint James Paris is truly one of a kind—it is the only château-hotel located within the city limits of Paris. Nestled in the prestigious 16th arrondissement, this grand 19th-century neoclassical mansion was once a private residence for scholars funded by the Thiers Foundation. Today, it operates as both an ultra-luxe hotel and an exclusive private club, offering a serene, countryside-estate feel in the heart of the capital.
CN Traveler + 1 more“The elegant, primarily residential 16th arrondissement is a fitting location for Saint James Paris, the city’s only officially designated château-hotel. Set in a neoclassical former private residence and surrounded by a sizable structural garden, the property intentionally keeps a low profile.”
Hotel Brach, Paris
Hotel Brach, located in the sophisticated 16th arrondissement, is a masterclass in eclectic design. Once a 1970s postal sorting center, the building was brilliantly reimagined by the visionary designer Philippe Starck. He transformed the concrete structure into a lush, multicultural sanctuary that blends 1930s architecture with elements of Bauhaus, Dada, and surrealism.
CN Traveler + 1 more“After a four-year renovation overseen by designer Philippe Starck, the resulting hotel is as much about a lifestyle as it is a place to crash. For one thing, the buzzing restaurant draws fashionable locals from breakfast until the early hours with its patisserie, plates to share, and potent drinks.”
Hôtel Madame Rêve, Paris
Hôtel Madame Rêve is a stunning five-star boutique retreat located in the heart of Paris’s 1st arrondissement. Housed in the historic and fully rehabilitated Louvre Post Office, the hotel is a brilliant example of architectural transformation. The original structure, which operated 24/7 as a central post office for over a century, has been reimagined by founder and artistic director Laurent Taïeb into a space that perfectly blends historic grandeur with modern, dreamlike elegance.
CN Traveler + 1 more“This posh property is a soon-to-be-outed secret. Located on a discreet corner near Les Halles in what was once Paris’s only 24-hour post office, Madame Rêve is where well-heeled guests spend the night in stylish rooms with monument views, or at the hotel’s 10,000-square-foot rooftop and restaurant, primed for peak summer socializing.”
Hôtel National Des Arts et Métiers, Paris
Hôtel National des Arts et Métiers is a chic, design-focused retreat tucked behind two classic Haussmannian façades in the vibrant 3rd arrondissement. Opened as a collaboration between the La Cle Group and designer Raphael Navot, it successfully bridges the gap between historic Parisian architecture and contemporary 21st-century style.
CN Traveler“A quiet location near a short list of historic sites and cool neighborhoods with thoughtful design, excellent drinks, and dramatically different common spaces make this the new Parisian go-to home base for nomadic creatives.”
