Paris luxury holidays

Soak up the ambience of a deluxe suite in the Ritz hotel, dance the night away in one of Paris’s most exclusive night clubs or shop at designer boutiques. Paris is the perfect destination for a holiday of glitz and glamour, beckoning visitors with its sense of prestige, excitement and decadence.

Ritz and glamour

Spend your holiday in a stunning suite in the opulent Hotel Ritz Paris with views of the Eiffel Tower. Take a dip in your private Jacuzzi or lounge in the sauna after a day of hitting the shops. Make your stay extra special and indulge in the Coco Chanel suite, which has been designed to embody the essence and opulence of the iconic fashion designer. Another top choice is the extravagant Elton John suite, complete with chandeliers and stunning views.

Gastronomic delights

Enjoy the delicacies of world-renowned French chef Alain Ducasse at the Plaza Athénée Restaurant. Awarded three Michelin stars, Ducasse serves rare dishes such as roasted blue lobster and wild duck foie gras. In addition to the mouth-watering cuisine, diners can choose from an extensive wine list of over 1,000 different vintages. Alternatively, dine with a view at Ducasse’s Le Jules Verne Restaurant, located on the second level of the Eiffel Tower.

High fashion

Paris is renowned for being one of the world’s top fashion hot spots, with enough haute couture boutiques to satisfy the most stylish fashionistas. Head to Rue de Faubourg Saint-Honoré for luxurious designer shops such as Hermes, Lancôme, and Versace. The Saint-Honoré district is also the historic home to the acclaimed perfumer Jean-Francois Houbigant, who in the 1800’s became the official perfume maker for royalty all over Europe. Find your royal scent at the modern perfume shop, Sarl Fried.

Parisian pampering

After a day of shopping try out the Valmont Spa in Le Meurice. Spa treatments include invigorating body scrubs, anti-aging facials, and state of the art toning and slimming body soaks that trim your figure while you relax. Professional masseuses perform innovative treatments such as the exclusive ‘Meurice’ body massage that combines a blissful massage with exotic oils that will leave you feeling like a million dollars.

Party like a rock star

Clubs on the Rue de Ponthieu are famous for entertaining Paris’s elite. Le Sens and Le Neo cater to the upper crust, and their intimate settings, excellent music, extensive champagne and cocktail lists make them a must see.
