The hype
Travelers adore the staff's genuine warmth and the stunning 1920s interiors, but often balk at the breakfast price.
Prince De Galles, A Luxury Collection Hotel, Paris
$950-1400/ nacht
Boek dit als You want the Golden Triangle location without the 'Pierre Le Snob' attitude of the neighboring palaces.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Legitimate Art Deco soul (built 1929) that feels residential, not corporate
- Akira Back’s Japanese-Korean food is actually a destination, not just a hotel restaurant
- Service is consistently rated as warmer and less stiff than the George V next door
Snel Overzicht: A stunning Art Deco jewel box that trades a swimming pool for better service and a killer cognac bar.
Beoordeeld door @danniemac77: I stayed in this Art Deco suite for a special celebration and it was magical. The staff surprised me with macarons and a handwritten note, which made the trip so memorable. Plus, having a quiet courtyard view right in the Golden Triangle is a total game changer.

Reality check
The 'Wellness Suite' is just one treatment room and a hammam, not a full-blown spa complex.
- You obsess over Art Deco design and Macassar ebony wood
- You want to be 3 minutes from Champs-Élysées shopping but sleep in silence
- You prefer an intimate, boutique feel (159 rooms) over a sprawling resort

Voordat je boekt
Goed om te weten
- The 'Wellness Suite' is private-hire only—you get the hammam to yourself, but book ahead.
- Breakfast is excellent but pricey (~€49); consider walking to a nearby café if you just want coffee and a croissant.
- The concierge 'Clefs d'Or' team is top-tier—use them for hard-to-get reservations.
Wat je mee moet nemen
- Dressy casual outfits—the lobby and bar vibe is chic, not gym-clothes friendly
- A universal adapter (though USB ports are available, outlets are French Type E)

“I would appreciate a room facing the internal courtyard for quietness. If possible, a floor higher than the 3rd to ensure natural light, as I understand lower courtyard rooms can be darker.”
Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is there a pool?
No. This is the biggest surprise for guests expecting a 'palace' experience. If you need a swim, go to the Four Seasons next door (if you can get in).
Is it kid-friendly?
Yes, they offer 'Little Prince' amenities and connecting rooms, but the vibe is definitely more grown-up/romantic.
How much is breakfast?
Expect to pay around €49 per person for the full buffet. It's high quality, but expensive.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, it's pet-friendly with a fee of ~€70 per stay. They even provide bowls and a bed.
Is the location touristy?
Extremely. You are in the 'Golden Triangle' of luxury shopping. It's prestigious, but don't expect a gritty local neighborhood vibe.
What is the 'Wellness Suite'?
It's a single private area with a steam room and treatment table. It's not a public spa where you can hang out with other guests.
Tips van Insiders
- ✨
The 'Cognathèque' in Bar 19.20 has rare vintages you can taste by the glass—ask the bartender for a flight.
- ✨
Book the 'Wellness Suite' for a steam session even if you don't get a massage; it's a private escape.
- ✨
The courtyard patio is heated, making it a secret weapon for a quiet drink even in chilly months.
