Le Bristol Paris

Jump to:

Located about a ten-minute walk from the fashionable Champs-Élysées, Le Bristol Paris is ideally situated and named after the fourth Earl of Bristol who was an adventurer and explorer. This historic hotel is renowned for its superior service and unbridled luxury. It features an impressive art collection and an ornate elevator from the 1940s.

The spacious rooms exude elegance with antique furnishings, wrought-iron balconies, high ceilings, and sweeping views of some of Paris’s best-loved sights such as the Sacré-Coeur Basilica, the Eiffel Tower or quintessential Parisian rooftops.

The hotel has two Michelin-starred restaurants, L’Épicure and the 114 Faubourg, as well chic Café Antonia and the tranquil Le Jardin Français, a beautiful garden with seating under orange trees.

OUR OPINION:

A ‘palace’ distinction hotel, Le Bristol is an absolute classic, traditional in style and effortlessly sophisticated. One of our preferred hotels in Paris, it's both historic and enchanting.
