Fodor's Expert Review The Peninsula Paris

A €900 million renovation restored the luster of this lavishly appointed 1908 gem and raised the bar for luxury hotels in Paris. No detail was overlooked: from the luminous lobby to the glamorous rooftop restaurant, all of the common areas are exquisitely conceived, with touches of gold and silver accented with works by top contemporary artists. Spacious rooms and suites—many with terraces and sweeping views—have a restrained elegance that speaks of pure luxury, with walk-in closets, tons of natural light, and generous marble baths with heated floors and steam showers. Two restaurants—including the beautiful LiLi, one of Paris's great Cantonese dining rooms—and a stellar spa round out an unparalleled experience.
