Postponed several times, the opening of the Hong Kong-based hotel group’s first property in Europe will finally take place this summer. Luxury will be in the air at the new high-end hotel, which has every intention of overshadowing the most prestigious addresses in the French capital.
Located within a historic building dating from 1908, the Peninsula Paris promises to combine authentic Parisian charm with modern style.
Marble floors, high ceilings and elegant drapery set the tone in the lobby, which is furnished in a modern style. Guests on foot can walk into the hotel through this entrance on the Avenue Kléber in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.
Those arriving by car will enter the hotel directly through the other entrance on the Avenue des Portugais, where they will find an enormous chandelier that was custom-made by the prestigious Lasvit workshop. The hand-blown work of art is adorned with several leaf-shaped crystal pendants. A stone installation from Bhutan completes the ensemble.
Elegance will be the byword for the decoration of the hotel’s 200 rooms. Grey and beige tones, high ceilings, marble-lined bathrooms and sophisticated lighting will contribute to an ambiance of refinement. Works of contemporary art by international artists will adorn the walls.
