Hôtel Plaza Athénée

Hôtel Plaza Athénée is a five-star palace hotel set in a 1913 building on Avenue Montaigne, in the 8th arrondissement, about 1 km from the Eiffel Tower and 3 km from the Louvre. The Alma-Marceau metro station is a three-minute walk away.

The 154 rooms and 54 suites mix embroidery, silk and marble with 18th-century-style antiques; 15 rooms hold a direct Eiffel Tower view, and upper-floor suites such as No. 878 and No.

745 add balconies or wraparound views. Five restaurants and bars, including the Michelin-starred La Grande Table du Plaza Athénée, the Art Deco Le Relais Plaza, and the courtyard La Cour Jardin, sit alongside a Dior Spa with a steam room and sauna.

A courtyard with ivy-covered walls and signature red awnings anchors the ground floor. It suits guests comparing palace-tier properties on this stretch of Paris who weight Eiffel Tower sightlines and a Michelin-starred kitchen on site.
