Ritz Paris
The Ritz Paris was founded in 1898 by César Ritz, a visionary gentleman, during the Belle Époque.
The Ritz Paris is a legendary hotel located at 15, place Vendôme in the 1st arrondissement of Paris.
In 1896, César Ritz chose a private mansion located on Place Vendôme to create his dream of a prestigious hotel.
His aim was to offer the pinnacle of modern elegance and comfort, and he succeeded in creating the world's first hotel with electricity on all floors and offering rooms with private bathrooms.
The Ritz Paris underwent a complete restoration before reopening in 2016.
This restoration was carried out under the leadership of the interior architecture firm Thierry W Despont.
Each location, from luxurious suites to restaurants, bars, reception rooms, and French gardens, has been redesigned and enhanced.
As soon as you enter the lobby, you are amazed by the warm carpets, the grand majestic staircase, and the fabrics and bouquets.
The Ritz reveals itself little by little, with decors that tell a thousand and one anecdotes and famous guests who have written pages of its history.
