HOW ABOUT LIVING THE LOCKDOWN AT THE HOTEL THIS WEEKEND?

Hotels Paris

Ordering a burger presented under a silver dome, comfortably installed in a suite, wearing a fluffy bathrobe… A deluxe dream come true.

If most restaurants and hotels are closed, room services are working around the clock! An enticing alibi that just might encourage Parisians to let go of the kids, husband or small studio… And take off for the weekend without leaving Paris while being totally pampered! Even better: considering the context: boutique-hotels and palaces are going to offer to their new clientele a new deluxe treatment—of course there even might be upgrades to superior rooms as often as possible.

On the programme: a gastronomic feast, a love session, laps in the pool and the best TV dinner in your life. Care to join us?

LA RÉSERVE

Installed in the former private mansion of Pierre Cardin, right next to the Élysée, the smallest palace in Paris has preserved the Belle Époque spirit of the famous couturier with a particularly chic and intimate decor imagined by Jacques Garcia, featuring velvet, wood panelling and Versailles parquet floors. Without forgetting bathrooms worthy of princesses around the world and a few suites with a small terrace looking onto the Eiffel Tower and the Champs-Élysées gardens.
