A haven of understated luxury in the heart of Paris
The Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme is not merely a hotel: it is an institution, a sanctuary where one feels “elsewhere yet at home”. Its location, overlooking Rue de la Paix and the Vendôme column, contributes to its aura. Here, luxury manifests itself with subtlety, far from any ostentation.
The timeless imprint of Ed Tuttle
The decor, conceived by the legendary designer Ed Tuttle, marries contemporary aesthetics with the surrounding Haussmannian architecture. His choices, punctuated by carefully selected works of art, bestow an exclusive character upon the venue, highly appreciated by connoisseurs. General Manager Gorka Bergareche champions a “precision hospitality”, orchestrated to transform every moment into a memory.
The Mediterranean terrace, a stationary journey
Each summer, the palace’s confidential terrace becomes a green haven of peace in the heart of the capital. For the 2026 season, it invites guests to a Mediterranean escape, complete with the scent of lemon trees and an atmosphere conducive to relaxation. The menu has been entirely redesigned around simple and generous flavours inspired by the Mediterranean basin: seasonal produce, impeccable freshness, and aromatic herbs take centre stage, offering a true ode to the sweet life.
The frozen teatime by Naraé Kim, an exquisite interlude
To perfect this summer offering, the hotel presents a brand-new creation: the frozen teatime by Naraé Kim. Far more than a simple sweet treat, this offering is designed as a fully-fledged sensory experience, crafted to capture the essence of a summer afternoon. Each frozen creation transforms simple moments into memories, offering a refreshing interlude amidst the Parisian bustle.
Pur’ by Jean-François Rouquette: twenty years of excellence
The Michelin-starred restaurant Pur’, led by chef Jean-François Rouquette, remains a flagship address of Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme. Summer 2026 marks a major milestone: the chef is celebrating his twenty-year tenure with the house. Two decades of bold creations and a consistently maintained Michelin star testify to a rare alchemy between a chef and his establishment.
A metamorphosis by Hugo Toro
The restaurant has recently benefited from a complete redesign entrusted to designer Hugo Toro. His vision has breathed new life into the venue, with a woody palette that brings warmth and modernity. This subtle and elegant transformation offers a refreshed setting for the gastronomic experience, where the decor dialogues with the chef’s cuisine.
“Perfect Pairing”: the alliance of whisky and haute cuisine
To mark his twenty years, Jean-François Rouquette has devised a collaboration with the whisky house The Macallan. Named “Perfect Pairing”, it offers a culinary journey in three acts, with each dish in dialogue with the limited collection “Distil Your World Paris”, a single malt that explores every facet of the City of Light. A demonstration of the art of pairing food and spirits, elevating tasting to a fine art.
