The Peninsula Paris

Peninsula New York was wonderful — they switched us to a suite plus adjoining room at no extra cost and the service has been fantastic.

We were able to check in early and the upgrade to a suite with extra room was such a great surprise. The kids loved the chocolate bear with their names, beds are incredibly comfortable, and the pool is perfect for children. The service throughout has been wonderful.

We had a wonderful evening with excellent food and drinks, and Adriano's friendly service made it even better.

The setting is truly beautiful and both food and drinks were excellent quality. Adriano provided such friendly and considerate service that really enhanced our experience. My wife and kids had an absolute blast during our visit.

The Peninsula is a haven in the city with sensational people and an incredibly welcoming environment.

This hotel is elegant, fun, and serene all at once. The bar is absolutely glorious and the breakfast was delectable. I couldn't recommend this hotel enough — it truly creates that perfect balance of sophistication and warmth.

This is the highest quality hotel in France without doubt — they exceeded all possible expectations.

I want to thank Vincent Pimont's entire team for organizing the most wonderful birthday celebration in April. It's pure quality and sophistication throughout. The whole team's effort deserves the highest congratulations.

Bar Kléber is a great venue for drinks, especially outside on the terrace in summer.

I've stayed here a few times and always had a great experience. The hotel and rooms are immaculate, staff are friendly and attentive, and the location is fantastic. The bar terrace becomes particularly special during summer months.

I've stayed at all three properties and Peninsula wins hands down for service and design.

The Mandarin Oriental feels dated and is apparently losing its Palace status, while Raffles is just inconsistent with weird room layouts. Peninsula has that classic, slightly understated Asian luxury feel but genuinely luxurious. The dining is excellent between the Cantonese restaurant and the Michelin rooftop spot. Their breakfast is honestly one of the best in Paris.

I stayed in the Katara suite for New Year's and the rooftop terrace with panoramic views was absolutely superb.

We paid quite a bit but the suite came with this incredible full rooftop terrace that made it worth every euro. The breakfast was typically French with quality ingredients, nothing revolutionary but properly executed. The location worked perfectly for my girlfriend's shopping along Avenue Montaigne. I'd definitely book here again without hesitation.

Room service stole jewelry and when I ordered external delivery, they wanted to charge an additional $50 to bring food upstairs.

I had investigators come interview me about missing jewelry from my room, and while looking for it, I found dust in the bedside tables. Later, when a delivery driver stole my food from the lobby, staff said it would cost $50 extra to have any food brought to my room. That's crazy for a 5-star hotel — at Belmond they check your food is warm and heat it before bringing it up.

What made my stay special was Etienne the bartender at Bar Kléber — his warmth and cocktail expertise elevated the entire experience.

From the moment I sat down, Etienne made me feel genuinely welcomed and remembered. His cocktail knowledge is exceptional, recommendations are spot-on, and every drink is crafted with real skill. The hotel itself is beautiful and well-located, but Etienne represents hospitality at its absolute best. I'll definitely return just for the bar experience.

This was an incredible experience where everything from the property to service exceeded expectations.

The public areas still maintain that palace grandeur and elegance you'd expect. Our 'standard' room was anything but standard — both the room and marble bathroom were exceptionally large. The closet doubles as a dressing room complete with a makeup table that has a built-in nail polish dryer. Service across the board was excellent and the word 'no' simply isn't in their vocabulary.

This stay was without doubt the most disappointing Peninsula experience I've ever had.

I've stayed many times at Peninsula Tokyo, which remains one of our favorites worldwide, and just came from Four Seasons Madrid with consistently warm service. Here, cutlery was placed directly on tables without being changed, bottled water wasn't replenished because the previous bottle was half full, and they wanted to charge €50 to bring external food delivery to our room when we were feeling unwell. This penny-pinching behavior is completely inappropriate for a luxury hotel.

This is luxury personified with everything you could think of already provided, including a nail dryer in the room.

We stayed in a fifth-floor suite with a dressing room, large bedroom, mini office with printer, and high-end toilet. The bed is absolute heaven. Staff are professional and friendly, and we're steps from Champs-Élysées. What I found strange was the €75 breakfast cap for a €3,000-per-night room — why put limits on breakfast at that price point? Overall though, it was worth every dime.

I stayed in a Grand Premier Suite and the effortless luxury here makes you feel like the property was designed around your personal rhythm.

The suite offered a cinematic view of central Paris that felt alive and detailed, not postcard-distant. Room design blends refined Asian serenity with classical French elegance perfectly. Panel lighting, wardrobe automation, and curtains all respond without delay — luxury here isn't decoration, it's precision and timing. The bathroom deserves special mention with steam options, deep soaking tub, and mirror television.

The rooms are nicely designed but service was inconsistent, especially at breakfast where our orders were repeatedly forgotten.

Our breakfast orders were forgotten even though the waiter wrote them down, which is frankly unacceptable. Paying $30 for a small fruit plate that turned out to be sour really bothered me — if you're charging that much, pick quality fruit. The wait times, unfriendly staff, and inability to fix problems made me question the $2200 daily rate. Four Seasons and even Grand Power Hotel offer much better service.

The setting is beautiful and L'Oiseau Blanc dining was exquisite, but the lobby restaurant is hideously expensive.

This hotel oozes luxury with amazing polished marble reception areas and is frequented by heads of state. The rooftop bar is lovely so paying for the view is acceptable with €20 for a 1664 beer. However, the lobby restaurant's 3-course menu disappointed — my medium steak was average at best, served with just a ring of fondant potato and no other vegetables for €85.
