Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme | A five-star experience in Paris

Paris is one of the most elegant cities in the world and that is not by chance. Indeed, the City of Light has many things to offer to its visitors, from beautiful sights to excellent and magnificent accomodations. A great example is Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme, a five star gem that is strategically located on the Rue de la Paix, within walking distance of some of the best tourist attractions in Paris such as the Louvre, the Palais Garnier and the glamorous boutiques in the busy Place Vendôme, or on the street Rue du Faubourg Saint Honore.

The hotel opened in 2002 and offers a total of 153 rooms, of which 43 are suites. They are all designed by Ed Tuttle, whose elegant, understated style seizes every room, giving them a sober and elegant style that includes the ultimate in luxury and technology, including access to high-speed Internet, fax and PC connection, multi-line phone and voicemail, DVD and CD players, individual climate controls, light intensity regulator and exclusive bathrooms with underfloor heating, bath and shower.

But the real treat is in the details, as the hotel offers many services and amenities that make each stay a unique experience, such as the exclusive bath products created by perfume designer Blaise Mautin, exclusive minibar, a dresser and a desk for guests who inevitably have had to bring work home.

Although in the case of a luxury hotel right in the city of love would make you think that their regular guests are exclusively couples, the fact is that the Park Hyatt is perfect for social events of any kind, either celebrations or meetings. Its facilities include eight flexible meeting rooms, including five designed for receptions; and three smaller together with an exquisite natural light and adequate privacy for intimate ceremonies.

There are many activities that guests of Park Hyatt can participate in on the outside thanks to the 24-hour-concierge service which includes limo transportation, tickets to the theater and opera, personal advisor to shopping, guided tour with private guide in places of interest, such as museums etc. In addition, the hotel offers babysitting services for any couple to enjoy Paris without ties or concerns, a gym, spa with sauna and steam room, its four treatment rooms, a therapy room, etc.

Finally, as expected from the French capital, the cuisine also ranks high within the hotel. Besides the two restaurants dedicated to breakfast, lunch and dinner, Les Orchidées and The Cheminée, there is also Restaurant Pur with its innovative cuisine that has been awarded a Michelin star and La Terrasse, a wonderful outdoor space to enjoy lunch with the Paris skyline as a backdrop.
