Hôtel de Crillon, Paris

Hôtel de Crillon is at 10 Place de la Concorde in Paris’s 8th arrondissement, a short distance from Avenue des Champs-Élysées. Its position on the square is central to the description in the property description: some of the accommodation has balconies looking over Place de la Concorde.

Setting and history

The building was commissioned by King Louis XV in the 18th century. The directory entry presents this historic origin alongside the hotel’s Place de la Concorde address, connecting the property closely with its immediate Parisian setting rather than treating it simply as a base elsewhere in the city.

The underlying record was written while the hotel was undergoing a major renovation and referred to a planned reopening in 2015. Its detailed inventory therefore describes the property at that point and should not be read as a statement of current availability.

Accommodation in the directory entry record

At the time covered by the directory entry, Hôtel de Crillon had 103 rooms, including 44 suites. Its most prestigious suites were on the fifth and top floor, and the text notes that they had accommodated prominent guests. Equipment listed for the rooms included flat-screen televisions, safes, minibars and air conditioning. Certain suites also had a balcony facing Place de la Concorde.

These details provide a useful picture of the hotel before the renovation mentioned in the directory entry. Room totals, layouts, equipment and category names can change, so they should be confirmed directly when comparing accommodation.

Dining and other facilities

The same record names four restaurants: L’Ambassadeur, L’Obélisque, the Jardin d’hiver and the Patio. It describes French cooking as their focus and also refers to a hotel bar. Other facilities listed at the time included a fitness room, swimming pool, spa and several conference rooms.

Practical context

The durable location information supplied for the property is 10 Place de la Concorde, 75008 Paris. Travellers considering a stay should verify the present room arrangements, dining venues and guest facilities with the hotel before booking, particularly because the directory entry predates the renovation it describes.
