The hype
Reviewers consistently praise the 'royal' treatment from staff and the jaw-dropping views, but often note the rooms can feel small for the price tag.
Le Meurice - Dorchester Collection
$1,300-2,500+ / לילה
הזמן את זה אם You want the absolute peak of Parisian opulence where Salvador Dalí once walked his pet ocelots, and you don't mind paying a premium for the privilege.
למה אנשים אוהבים את זה
- Unrivaled location directly across from the Tuileries Garden and Louvre
- The Cédric Grolet pâtisserie downstairs is world-famous (and you can skip the line if you order ahead/dine in)
- Interiors that blend 18th-century Versailles grandeur with Philippe Starck's surrealist modern touches
סיכום מהיר: It is aggressively expensive and unapologetically fancy, but unlike many 'Palace' hotels, it has a sense of humor and genuine soul.
סקור על ידי @renaesworldofficial: I’ve stayed at many Palace hotels, but Le Meurice has a distinct feminine elegance I adore. With direct access to Cedric Grolet’s pastries and the Valmont spa, I honestly didn't want to leave the building. It’s worth the splurge just to soak it all in.

Reality check
While the soundproofing is excellent, the summer carnival noise is a recurring complaint for the most expensive park-view rooms.
- You appreciate art history and want to stay where Picasso and Dalí stayed
- You are a foodie who prioritizes access to Alain Ducasse and Cédric Grolet
- You want a concierge who can pull off 'miracles' like private Louvre tours

- Linens & towels: High-thread-count Italian linens and plush, heavy towels.

ג'ניה בקשת חדרים – העתק והדבק
“I am celebrating a special occasion and would love to request one of the newly renovated rooms by Lally & Berger. If possible, a higher floor facing the Tuileries would be ideal. We are light sleepers, so please ensure we are away from the elevator.”
שאלות נפוצות וטיפים נסתרים
הכל מה שאתה באמת צריך לדעת לפני ההזמנה
Is there a pool?
No. This is the biggest amenity gap compared to competitors like The Ritz or Cheval Blanc.
How do I get Cédric Grolet pastries without the line?
Order 'Click & Collect' via his website 48h in advance, or book Tea Time at Le Dalí restaurant.
Is it kid-friendly?
Surprisingly, yes. They offer a 'treasure hunt' in the hotel and custom amenities for children.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, dogs under 7kg are welcome for a €40 daily fee. They even get a custom basket and bowl.
Is breakfast included?
Rarely. Expect to pay ~€62-75 per person for the full American breakfast if not in your rate.
What is the 'Palace' distinction?
It's a French government rating above 5 stars; Le Meurice is one of only ~12 hotels in Paris with this status.
טיפים פנימיים
- ✨
Ask the concierge for the 'Midnight in Paris' walking map.
- ✨
The hot chocolate at Le Dalí is arguably better than Angelina's down the street and has zero line.
- ✨
You can rent a small boat to sail in the Tuileries fountain across the street—a classic Parisian pastime.
5 דברים שכדאי לדעת לפני שתצא
💡The lobby smells specifically of a custom 'spicy wood' fragrance that changes slightly by season.
💡The 'frosted mirror' in the lobby is actually a guestbook you can write on.
💡Room service fries are consistently rated some of the best in Paris by frequent flyers.
💡The elevators are surprisingly small for such a grand hotel.
💡You might spot a celebrity at Bar 228, but the staff will pretend they don't exist.
