Top Luxury Hotels in Paris According to iBestTravel

Parisians are known for being particular, so it is little surprise that when it comes to the finest hotels, attention to detail remains a consistent priority — as evidenced by the regular appearance of these properties, which continue to wow our readers year after year.

A Commitment to Excellence

Every year for our World’s Best Awards survey, iBestTravel asks readers to weigh in on travel experiences around the globe — to share their opinions on the top hotels, resorts, cities, islands, cruise ships, spas, airlines, and more. Hotels were rated on their facilities, location, service, food, and overall value. Properties were classified as city or resort based on their locations and amenities.

Featured Hotels

Hôtel de Crillon, a Rosewood Hotel

The Hôtel de Crillon, a Rosewood Hotel, is hardly a modern addition to the city’s landscape. However, the centuries-old property reopened to fanfare last summer, following an opulent, four-year makeover. Each of its 124 guest rooms and suites — a handful of which were styled by Karl Lagerfeld — has been redecorated in neutral colors and with lavish use of silk and marble; additions include a spa and a pool lined with 17,600 tiles. One recent visitor wrote, “Elegant and not stuffy.” Another added, “Exceptional in every way.”

Park Hyatt Paris–Vendôme

Also lauded for excellence following a multimillion-dollar renovation is the Park Hyatt Paris–Vendôme, a sleek boutique hotel created from five adjoining Haussmann-era townhouses. Its revamped 153 rooms and suites feature spa-like bathrooms with limestone walls and heated floors, which enhances the overall luxury experience. Additionally, there are pet amenities available, should you choose to bring your furry friend.

Le Bristol

Le Bristol, an Oetker Collection jewel on the Rue du Faubourg St.-Honoré, is renowned for its decadently decorated 190 rooms and suites, garden dining, and rooftop indoor pool with breathtaking views over Paris. However, it has been nudged out of the top spot it occupied last year and into fourth place, behind Le Meurice and the Peninsula, both of which also rank highly among visitors.

Conclusion

The greatest challenge may not lie in choosing from among these magnificent hotels but in being convinced to leave the comfort of your freshly ironed sheets for the world outside. For that, you can rely on the wise encouragement of the concierge to help you plan your Parisian adventures effectively.
