Hotel The Peninsula, Paris

19 Avenue Kléber, 75116 Paris, France (show on map)

The Peninsula Paris is a true “Grande Dame” of the city. Housed in a classic 19th-century Haussmannian building, the site originally opened in 1908 as the Hotel Majestic. It famously served as a meeting place for high society, hosting legendary figures like George Gershwin, who composed An American in Paris while staying there, and Picasso, who attended a “dinner party of the century” within its walls in 1922.

Following its life as a hotel, the building transitioned into the UNESCO headquarters and later a French government conference centre, where the Vietnam peace treaty was negotiated in 1973. After six years of meticulous restoration involving France’s finest artisans, it reopened as The Peninsula in 2014, blending its historic grandeur—like 20,000 pieces of gold leaf—with modern, high-tech amenities.

The hotel is filled with unique artistic touches. The lobby features “Dancing Leaves,” a bespoke Lasvit installation of 800 hand-blown crystal leaves, while the aviation-themed rooftop restaurant, L’Oiseau Blanc, pays tribute to a famous transatlantic flight attempt. Guests can even spot a 75% scale replica of the L’Oiseau Blanc biplane perched near the restaurant.

Its location is spectacular for sightseers. Nestled in the 16th arrondissement, you are just steps from the Arc de Triomphe and a short walk from the Trocadéro and the Eiffel Tower. Whether you are exploring nearby museums like the Palais de Tokyo or shopping on the Champs-Élysées, the hotel provides a luxurious, tranquil base right in the heart of Parisian history.

Expert reviews

CNN review:

“The Peninsula’s sculpted stone facade — covered in intricate bas-reliefs — was meticulously restored to its former neoclassical splendor. Inside are similarly restored marble, gilt work and 19th-century mosaics, which complement the hotel’s modern artwork and fixtures.”

Fodors review:

“Dating from 1908, the lavishly appointed, state-of-the-art Peninsula raises the bar for luxury hotels in Paris. No detail was overlooked: from the luminous lobby to the glamorous rooftop restaurant, all of the common areas are exquisitely conceived, with touches of gold and silver accented with works by top contemporary artists.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Paris.

Forbes review:

“It’s fitting that The Peninsula Hotels’ first outpost in Europe is in Paris, a city where inconspicuous grandeur is a way of life. The Peninsula Paris has been meticulously renovated to restore the classic 1908 Haussmannian building’s stature.”

Telegraph review:

“This Palace hotel offers traditional grand-dame service and opulence with a contemporary edge, making it a favourite with international entertainment and sports stars. Expect attentive service and outstanding facilities, including the city’s biggest hotel pool.”

Incredible luxury in one of the most iconic locations in Europe.

Great location at the foot of L’Arc de Triomphe. Despite the bustling location, our room was serene and quiet. The noise of the aircon almost imperceptible and non-irritating to my nose and throat. Amazing rooftop bar and restaurant. Our Junior suite was very spacious, ultra luxurious without pretension. Staff are incredibly professional, low-key, friendly and intelligent. Despite a couple of minor issues with one of my meals, the staff were immediately available to remedy my concerns to my satisfaction.

One of the main entrances being situated through a restaurant can feel a little overwhelming when walking in with luggage.

Absolute luxury! A classy hotel.

Great location near the Arc de Triomphe. Check in was great and staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was outstanding, large, quiet and very comfortable. Large double bed, sofa, desk, separate dressing room and large bathroom with marble bath, good shower - nice towels and fluffy towels and toiletries. A separate dressing room with an dressing table and safe which was useful. It was our 25th wedding anniversary and the Hotel had left a Card, cake, champagne and flowers in our room as a celebratory gift - such a lovely touch! And when we came back from dinner the bath was run with rose petals and candles as a romantic gesture. Breakfast served in the mini Versailles Room was delicious- service was leisurely but we weren't in a rush. We visited the lovely Spa and had a swim in the spacious pool. Check out was smooth. I would recommend this hotel if you want to treat yourself.

My stay at The Peninsula Paris was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I arrived, I was immersed in an atmosphere of unparalleled luxury and sophistication. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect—from the immaculate décor blending Parisian elegance with modern touches to the exceptional service provided by the staff. Every interaction was warm, professional, and thoughtful, making me feel like a truly valued guest. The rooms were spacious, beautifully appointed, and equipped with state-of-the-art technology, offering both comfort and convenience. The rooftop restaurant with its stunning views of the Eiffel Tower was a highlight, providing an unforgettable dining experience with exquisite cuisine. The location, just steps from iconic landmarks like the Arc de Triomphe, was perfect for exploring the heart of Paris. After a day of sightseeing, the serene spa and wellness area provided the ideal retreat to relax and recharge. Staying at The Peninsula Paris is more than just a hotel experience; it’s a journey into the art of fine living. I can’t recommend it highly enough and look forward to returning to this haven of luxury.

Premium "palace" style 5 stars luxury. Opulent, beautiful and tasty Breakfast room and bar. Very clean, very high class.

Style is a bit old fashioned. Some elements in the room were a little outdates/not the most convenient. Location isn't the best but it is what it is and right next to the arc de triomphe. But all in all exceptional experience.

Croissant basket served at the breakfast Great concierge service Amazing quality of finishing in rooms’ decoration Super clean and well maintained building

Breakfast menu choices are so complicated and also restricting. Throughout the 4 days we stayed we never understood how the bill was calculated. The day we ate little we paid as much as we did in a day with plenty of plates on the table.

It's modern, clean, staffed by friendly and professional staff. The rooms are nice, comfy bed, nice sized tubs in which to relax. They have a nice restaurant on site, from which my girlfriend and I ate throughout our stay.

The restaurant at the top of the building is only open during the summer.

Breakfast was not clear.....pastries were already on table and then given juice/tea which meant we were locked in at 72EUR each for breakfast. Only downside of the break as felt this was not right....also charged for the 2nd day breakfast without us having it although think this was a genuine mistake
