Le Bristol Paris reopens to unveil stunning new garden
The revolving door at Le Bristol Paris is finally turning again as the hotel reopened this week, revealing a stunning new garden for whiling away the balmy September days.
Part of inVOYAGER Oetker Collection’s luxury portfolio, Le Bristol was the first hotel in France to earn the distinction of “Palace hotel”.
The hotel’s new garden, designed by world renowned landscape designer Lady Arabella Lennox–Boyd, is an oasis of flowers and calm lined by plush drawing rooms and a colonnade adorned by blossoming orange trees. Lennox-Boyd selected many plants native to the Paris region, suited to local conditions, and each tree, shrub and flower was deliberately chosen to support the biodiversity of the garden.
The garden provides guests with a tranquil space only steps away from the bustle of Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré.
Located in the heart of the city’s arts and fashion district, Le Bristol has welcomed guests since 1925. Beyond the magnificent wrought-iron elevator and plush corridors are renovated rooms and suites decorated in 18th century French style.
Chef Eric Frechon creates exceptional cuisine in the three-Michelin-starred restaurant Epicure, while the one-Michelin-starred luxury brasserie 114 Faubourg offers an inviting atmosphere. Le Café Antonia welcomes guests for afternoon tea or less formal lunch and dinner, and Le Bar du Bristol is the place to see and be seen in Paris in the evening.
An impressive array of event spaces includes the Salon Castellane, formerly the Count of Castellane’s private theatre, with a unique 18th-century tapestry and Baccarat crystal chandeliers adding to the opulent feel of the room.
Salon Versailles, the largest space and accommodating up to 250, is decorated in soft shades of green, white and pale pink, and features antique furniture and bronze-and-crystal chandeliers.
The swimming pool, with panoramic views of Paris’s rooftops, and the Spa Le Bristol by La Prairie complete this exceptional Palace hotel experience and provide the perfect place to relax and unwind after a day of meetings or exploring the city.
