Hôtel de Crillon, a well-known Parisian landmark, reopened its doors last month after an extensive four-year restoration.

Dating back to the 18th century, the iconic Parisian property is reborn as a luxury hotel for the 21st-century traveler. Located in the heart of Paris at 10 Place de la Concorde, Hôtel de Crillon’s past was meticulously restored by artisans and designers to represent the spirit of the city.

“Rosewood’s guiding philosophy is A Sense of Place and this hotel intrinsically reflects the heart and soul of Paris. It radiates fine French contemporary lifestyle, timeless yet with an edge, not only in its design, but in gastronomy, art and service. Today, we greet the creative and the bold who represent the forward-thinking France of today, and travellers from all around the world who are looking for unique experiences amidst an exquisite sense of place,” said Radha Arora, president, Rosewood Hotels & Resorts.

The hotel’s 78 rooms, 36 suites and 10 signature suites embody a Parisian residential style, both warm and refined. The rooms and suites are elegantly decorated with bespoke furnishings and beautiful antiques. The signature suites are the crown jewels of the property and are among the finest accommodations in Paris. Guests can enjoy private terraces overlooking the Place de la Concorde, the Eiffel Tower or the Grand Palais in the Louis XV suite, and a distinctly feminine, Parisian experience in the Marie-Antoinette suite.

The hotel’s restaurants and bars are attractions in their own right. L’Ecrin is the hotel’s signature restaurant, offering intimate dining for only 22 guests per night in the 18th-century dining room. At the heart of the hotel is Brasserie d’Aumont, an eclectic space offering timeless French fare. Jardin d’Hiver offers guests a relaxing atmosphere in which to enjoy afternoon tea, Champagne or sweet treats, and La Cave holds the hotel’s impressive collection of fine and rare wines.
