Rendez Vous With Audrey : The Amazing Plaza Athénée

Lifestyle
Filed in:

As a Parisian (proud and loud!), I very often get questions about which hotel I recommend to stay when visiting Paris, and eventually doing photo shoots.
Today I’d like to share with you one my favorite places to stay in the city, the Plaza Athénée. This is the perfect hotel to stay with your girlfriends for a fun trip.

More about the Hotel Plaza Athénée.

Designed by Charles Lefebvre, the Hotel Plaza Athénée officially opened its doors in 1913. Recognizable by its famous facade covered in red flowers, it is one of the most prestigious Parisian palaces. Located Avenue Montaigne, it is surrounded by the most exclusive boutiques (Dior, Chanel, to name a few). Its 154 rooms and suites perfectly reflect the spirit of the Plaza: elegance, refinement and classic “à la Française” decor. Their suites feel like a Parisian apartment so you will get the sense of being in France.

The best location for Shopping in Paris on Avenue Montaigne

You are seconds away from all the designers and Couture boutiques Paris has to offer.

But it could be dangerous so message your bank just in case you max out your credit card 😉 .

Dior, Chanel, Vuitton,…you better bring an extra empty suitcase with you to fly back home.

Staying at the Hotel Plaza Athénée with your girlfriends will assure you to be the best dressed in Paris, even Emily in Paris will ask you where to shop.

Why book a room or suite at the Plaza?

Created in the Haussmanian architectural style, the Plaza Athenee Hotel is the symbol of the spirit of the city. The elegance and prestige of the rooms and suites, with their marble bathrooms, will exceed your expectations. And what better way to wake up in Paris than with a view of the Eiffel Tower from your suite?

The Plaza Athénée is ideal if you are on a girl’s trip for your bachelorette party, birthday or any celebration really. The hotel was seen in Sex and the City when Carrie discover the views of the Eiffel Tower from her balcony and recently in Emilie in Paris: it has this fun vibe with suites overlooking the Eiffel Tower where you can pop champagne and dance all night.

The Plaza Athénée is Instagram Worthy

Another point very important : The amazing breakfast on the balcony of the suite.

Vain I know but you will have the most picture perfect photo for your Instagram, enjoying your breakfast served on the balcony. It doesn’t even look real it is so cinematic to be enjoying your breakfast there.

Would I recommend the Plaza Athénée for a wedding in Paris?

Absolutely! I’d recommend you book a suite especially for the “getting ready” part; the Parisian decor will look exquisite on the photos of you getting dressed up, doing your last touch ups of make and hair and zipping up your dress…

Also, the balcony has a very elegant view of the Eiffel Tower.

The Plaza Athénée also has a small lounge perfect for intimate weddings with few guests.

In the winter, it has a view of their ice rink, how cool is that?
