Hôtel Plaza Athénée
The Haute Couture palace on Avenue Montaigne with iconic red geranium facade
About Hôtel Plaza Athénée
Centrally positioned between the Champs-Élysées and the Eiffel Tower on Paris's most prestigious fashion avenue, this legendary palace hotel features Dior Spa wellness and Michelin-recognized dining.
Inaugurated in 1913, Hôtel Plaza Athénée has long been intertwined with French haute couture — Christian Dior opened his fashion house next door specifically to cater to its international clientele. Today, its 154 rooms and 54 suites blend classic 18th-century Parisian elegance with Art Deco flair, many boasting private wrought-iron balconies framing direct views of the Eiffel Tower. Cour Jardin offers an ivy-draped romantic oasis in summer and a private ice-skating rink in winter.
