the hotel

Since opening in 1913, Hôtel Plaza Athénée has welcomed the world’s elite, offering a front-row seat to the elegance and energy of Paris. Recognised with the prestigious “Palace” distinction, the hotel is the city’s true Haute Couture address—ideally located on the iconic Avenue Montaigne, just moments from the Seine, the Eiffel Tower, and the Champs-Élysées. A symbol of Parisian style, Plaza Athénée shares a historic connection with the House of Dior, further embodied by the presence of the Dior Spa within the hotel. Its 154 rooms and 54 suites, styled in either classic or Art Deco design, feel like true Parisian apartments—offering modern comfort and breathtaking views of the capital. Guests enjoy 24-hour service, including in-room dining and concierge assistance. Chef Jean Imbert oversees the hotel’s entire culinary offering, from the Michelin-starred gastronomic restaurant to the iconic Relais Plaza brasserie, the elegant cocktail bar, and La Galerie, which serves refined fare throughout the day. In summer, guests can relax on two charming terraces—including the leafy Cour Jardin, which transforms into a magical ice rink come winter.
