15 Place Vendôme. A few square metres and an address that resonates worldwide. The Ritz Paris, founded in 1898 by César Ritz, has transcended eras, remaining the benchmark for French luxury. It boasts 142 rooms and suites, including the mythical Coco Chanel Suite and the Imperial Suite, classified as a historical monument, alongside service that has become legendary.
The Timeless Soul of a Palace
After four years of complete renovation (2012-2016), the Ritz reopened having lost none of its DNA · gold, mirrors, silks · while gaining contemporary comfort. The listed façades, the interior garden, the grand staircase, and the imperial lounges remain protected elements.
Bar Hemingway, a Place of Memory
Under the authority of head bartender Colin Field, and now his team, the Bar Hemingway remains one of the world’s most frequented bars by cocktail enthusiasts. Hemingway was a regular, Diana visited, and F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote there. A lounge with barely 25 seats, an English club atmosphere · booking is very difficult during high season.
Dining and the Ritz Escoffier School
Several dining options define the experience: L’Espadon beneath painted frescoes, Bar Vendôme with its famous brunch under a glass dome, and La Table de l’Espadon for pure gastronomy. The Ritz Escoffier School, open to both apprentices and enthusiasts, extends the transmission of expertise.
