In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
At the corner of Avenue George V and the Champs-Élysées, the hotel sits steps from Golden Triangle boutiques and the Arc de Triomphe.
The rooms
Bedrooms pair padded headboards and mahogany bookcases with damask drapery, leading to black granite bathrooms with steam-proof mirror screens.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Set beneath dark arches, the heated 15-meter indoor pool includes a dedicated hydrotherapy circuit lined with classical sculptures.
The spa
Spa Diane Barrière offers Biologique Recherche rituals alongside a cedar-lined Finnish sauna, a hammam, and an ice wall.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Brasserie Fouquet's
Pierre Gagnaire shapes classic brasserie dishes across wood-paneled rooms with red velvet banquettes and a hammered brass bar.
At the table
Joy serves seasonal French plates in a library-lined dining room that opens onto a quiet inner courtyard garden.
How it began

The property was built around the landmark 1899 brasserie when the Barrière family combined five adjacent Haussmann buildings into a hotel.
