Unique Sleeps: Amazing hotels hand picked by Expedia Experts.\u00a0The Peninsula Paris, France<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

There\u2019s luxury travel and then there\u2019s luxury travel in Paris. The City of Light is in the midst of a major shake-up at the pointy end of its tourist market, with prestige hotels including H\u00f4tel de Crillon, Plaza Athenee and The Ritz undergoing multi-million dollar upgrades. However, it\u2019s the new kid on the Rue – The Peninsula – that\u2019s generating the most excitement.<\/p>\n

This is the tenth location for the iconic Asian brand, which is renown for its opulent, uber-luxe properties. This hotel is no exception. Every inch of the vast Peninsula Paris is spectacular. No, it\u2019s more than that. It\u2019s Paris spectacular, which has its own measure on the spectacular scale.<\/p>\n

The hotel\u2019s landmark Haussmann building sits at the top of Avenue Kl\u00e9ber in the 16th arrondissement, just moments from Trocad\u00e9ro and the Arc De Triomphe. It was originally built as a palace and has been home to a Russian oligarch and Spanish queen. Converted to a hotel in 1908, the property has significant historical importance. Surviving both World Wars, it was here that George Gershwin composed \u201cAn American In Paris\u201d and the Paris Peace Accords, negotiated by Henry Kissinger, were signed in 1973.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a heritage that has been painstakingly respected in an extraordinary one billion dollar restoration. The architects have lost none of the period Wow Factor in modernising the building. Combining soaring ceilings with gold leaf walls; marble terraces with sweeping staircases and filling vast corridors with mega chandeliers – The Peninsula is a serious hotel where attention to extravagance reigns supreme.<\/p>\n

The 200 rooms, which include 34 suites, are very generous by the city\u2019s standards. Each bedroom is decorated with a contemporary belle \u00e9poque vibe. Think dark wood, grey and white linen, black leather and art-deco lighting. It offers an understated elegance, which at first glance appears almost modest, but once you get into the room and start exploring, the real innovation unfolds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
