James Andrew at the Hôtel de Crillon, Paris.
Coming back to bring you a bit more from the unsurpassed Hôtel de Crillon, hosts to WIJW’s Paris jaunt.
Despite the obvious and almost overwhelming grandeur of this most beautiful “palace” hotel, there is a certain intimacy about the experience – a certain unpretentious comfort conveyed in every aspect of the place, from the calm confidence of the staff, to the bright and airy rooms, to the luxuriously quiet patio, serene lounge areas, and first-class dining – everything hearkens back to a day when understated elegance and sophistication were the norm.
A stay at the Crillon is one of those elevated experiences that could only be born from centuries of refinement and the inherent assuredness gained through its association with major historical figures like Marie Antoinette, Churchill, and Roosevelt and many countless cultural icons like Elizabeth Taylor and Jackie O.

Whether you are in the mood for a Kir Royale at the bar, a simple lunch on the patio, or something a bit more grand at Les Ambassadeurs, the Crillon will not disappoint. We particularly enjoyed tea served in the Winter Garden – a perfect moment to recharge after a long day’s galavant.
Please do stay at the Crillon on your next Paris holiday!

Thanks again for another brilliant and excitingly original feature from Paris !
