The Hotel Plaza Athenee is ideal for those who love luxury and don't mind paying for it. Although the standard rooms are fairly small, they are elegantly appointed.
The staff is gracious and multi-lingual and can often help you make reservations for some of the finer, harder to get into restaurants in town.
The lobby has a warm charm as does the on site tea room and the bar is a wonderful place to sit and lounge, after a long day site seeing.
One of the best parts of staying at this hotel is that it is home to Alain Ducasse's marvelous restaurant. If you want five star cuisine definitely get the concierge to book you a reservation.
If outdoor dining is more your style, in the summer lunch and dinner can be had in the garden, within the hotel, at La Cour Jardin. This hotel is all about ambiance and service.
It is also in a fantastic location, located between the Avenue des Champs Elysées and the Eiffel Tower, and has wonderful views from many of the rooms.
