Ah, Le Bristol! We were eager to return, having stayed at the hotel in 2007 to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday. It is one of only four Paris five-star hotels deemed worthy of the assignation "Palace," and it certainly deserves the accolade, seemingly impossibly having become even better than it was last time. We've been fortunate enough to stay in... More

I have stayed at many Paris hotels, Le Meurice, Plaza Athenee, Georges V, etc and Le Bristol is, by far, my favorite Paris hotel. The rooms are beautifully decorated and appointed with nice amenities. The restaurants are wonderful and the public areas are gorgeous and inviting. Le Jardin Francais is one of my favorite places to have breakfast. It's cozy,... More

First of all I got upgraded (doubly so) - to an enormous corner room. When the porter said it was his favourite room in the hotel - I believed him. Second, my wife joined me at the end of the trip (somehow she got a free treatment), had afternoon tea and bumped into Beckam - who was gracious enough to... More

I stayed at this hotel for four nights with my girlfriend. Overall it was a good experience, albeit very expensive as you can expect from a luxury five star hotel! The staff were responsive, the room was fantastic and the food exceptional. Room service was always very fast, the internet worked well, as did all of the other services like... More

Le Bristol is quite simply an exceptional hotel. The location on the Rue Faubourg Saint Honore is great, and the building (in fact three buildings) is very beautiful, with a magnificent array of rooms and suites, all beautifully furnished under the personal supervision of Madame Oetker. The hotel is blessed with two world class restaurants, delightful public areas and a... More

I have been staying at the Bristol now many times, alone for business or with my family of three children, and each time it has been a great experience with very warm employees who really make you feel home and really welcome, including with the children (just the beautiful white cat is a little shy...). The last time we went... More

I've traveled to many, many first-class properties around the world, and usually I can come up with a semi-clever way of describing the best properties my wife and I have stayed at. Le Bristol has me stumped. I've run out of superlatives to describe Le Bristol because it is so far and away above the finest urban hotels we have... More

The hotel is extremely well located at the heart of business and shopping and classic Paris. The service is suberb without too much pampering (just right). The rooms are spacious and the linen is of top quality. Spotless cleaning, new carpet, sheets and towels. Bathroom is new but classic. Large and well equipped. Faultless. Probably the top hotel in Paris.

From the moment we walked up to the front door to the moment we sat in our seats we met 6 staff. Service is over the top and they make everyone feel important. We actually looked damn good so they possibly thought we were "somebody". The wine room/bar is sumptuous, inviting and expensive. Two glasses of wine ran us 54e... More
