Marvel at the Louvre and the Palais-Royal
FROM THE MONA LISA TO BUREN’S COLUMNS
Just a stone’s throw from the hotel, the Louvre museum displays its collections in the former palace of the kings of France: from the Mona Lisa to the Venus de Milo, the full spectrum of universal genius comes together beneath the glass pyramid designed by Ieoh Ming Pei.
Just behind it, the gardens of the Palais-Royal offer a respite where time stands still. Beneath the arcades that once sheltered Colette and Jean Cocteau, stroll amongst the antique shops, art galleries and designer boutiques, before stopping in the inner courtyard dotted with Buren’s famous columns.
Strolling along Rue Saint-Honoré
PARISIAN CHIC, FROM DAY TO NIGHT
The very backbone of the 1st arrondissement, Rue Saint-Honoré and its extension, Faubourg Saint-Honoré, are home to the finest French and international fashion and jewellery houses. Meticulously designed shop windows, cutting-edge concept stores and historic boutiques line the street for several hundred metres, offering a shopping experience that rivals even the capital’s busiest avenues.
Between shops, treat yourself to a gourmet break in one of the cafés and tea rooms that bring the street to life, or head to the Place Vendôme and its exceptional jewellers, just a few minutes’ walk away. Come evening, the atmosphere becomes more intimate, with hidden cocktail bars and Michelin-starred restaurants tucked away in the neighbourhood’s historic mansions.
Recharge your batteries in the Tuileries and near the Place de la Concorde
THE SERENITY OF THE GARDENS & THE GREATNESS OF THE OBELISK
A natural extension of the Louvre, the Tuileries Gardens invite you to stroll beneath their centuries-old lime trees, amongst ponds, statues and shaded terraces. Designed by Le Nôtre, it opens up a monumental vista towards the Place de la Concorde and its obelisk, offering one of the capital’s most beautiful walks, both by day and at dusk when the Ferris wheel and the city lights come alive.
On the edge of the garden, the Pinault Foundation, housed in the former Bourse de Commerce, presents a programme of contemporary art that appeals to collectors and the curious alike. It offers a striking contrast to the classical grandeur of the surroundings, just a stone’s throw from the hotel.
