Ritz Paris Hotel: A Legacy of Elegance and Excellence

Ritz Paris Hotel: Designed by architect Charles Mewès, the Ritz Paris is a stunning example of opulent French architecture, inspired by the grand palaces of Versailles. Since its inauguration in 1898, the hotel has undergone significant expansions, including the merging of adjacent buildings and the adaptation of parts of the hotel into a wartime hospital during WWI. The 1920s marked a period of renewed glamour for the Ritz, solidifying its status as a beloved destination for Parisian high society.

A Classic Destination of Elegance

In a historic first, the Ritz Paris closed its doors from 2012 to 2016 for an extensive renovation led by New York designer Thierry W. Despont. This remarkable restoration harmoniously blended the hotel’s rich heritage with modern luxury, preserving 95% of the original lighting fixtures and incorporating advanced technology without compromising its historic charm. Among the standout features is the monumental retractable glass roof over the Bar Vendôme terrace, transforming the space into a winter garden and allowing guests to enjoy the outdoors year-round.
