The Plaza Athénée hotel is located on the famous Avenue Montaigne, the Mecca of Parisian fashion, showcase of the most famous luxury shops. The Champs Elysées is only few minutes away, as the Eiffel Tower is, on the other end, on the left bank of the Seine. Its history is intimately tied to the Dior brand. Monsieur Christian Dior was a regular customer, having opened its historic boutique next to it. The Plaza Athénée belongs to the very closed circle of Parisian palaces, like Le Meurice (the other Paris hotel belonging to the Dorchester Collection), Le Bristol, Park Hyatt Vendôme, Le Four Seasons George V, the Mandarin Oriental, Le Royal Monceau and the Shangri-La.

The lobby
154 rooms and 54 suites that are available to allow hotel guests to enjoy the palace experience. The rooms overlook the inner courtyard of the hotel or the Avenue Montaigne. Some suites have a direct view over the Eiffel Tower which can be admired through a framed window, like a living masterpiece changing during the day. Each room at the Plaza Athénée is uniquely decorated with beautiful period furniture sourced from antique shops by Marie-José Pommereau (designer of the hotel). We thus find there all the warmth of an authentic Parisian apartment.
