“Discover Paris’ Most Acclaimed Room – Universally Celebrated Luxury!”

Discover Paris with Exquisite Comfort: A Journey Through the Bulgari Hotel Paris

Xu Zhimo once remarked, “Once you have been to Paris, you will no longer crave paradise.” This poetic statement captures the city’s effortless charm, where every corner and cobblestone seems to whisper tales of history and romance. As a frequent traveler to Paris, I find the city never ceases to be a wellspring of happiness.

One of the quintessential elements of my Parisian paradises has always been its unparalleled luxury hotels. Names like Bulgari, Ritz, Le Meurice, George V Four Seasons, Raffles Royal Monceau, Cheval Blanc, Hôtel de Crillon, Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme, and the Peninsula read like a roll call of opulence. However, while these establishments define grandeur, they can quickly take a toll on one’s wallet.

During my latest soiree to Paris, I set my eyes on the Bulgari Hotel. My previous extraordinary experiences with Bulgari, whether in Beijing or Dubai, set a high benchmark. After all, could the Bulgari in Paris, perfectly nestled in the “Golden Triangle” on Avenue George V—between the Seine River and the Champs-Élysées—be anything but marvelous?

The neighborhood itself belts out luxury, surrounded by the high-end boutiques of Avenue Montaigne and the Champs-Élysées; this area teems with exquisite spots to indulge in retail therapy.

Bulgari Hotel Paris: A Gem among Jewels

Why the Bulgari Hotel Paris, you ask? Numerous reviews acclaim the hotel’s top-floor suites, heralded as perhaps the best in Paris, if not the world. The breathtaking views from these suites capture iconic Parisian landmarks, such as the Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur and the Eiffel Tower, painting an ethereal canvas right from your room and balcony.

A relatively recent addition to the Bulgari hotel family, this establishment, which opened in 2021, continues to uphold the brand’s illustrious construction principles. Transformed from a 1970s office building, it is the seventh Bulgari hotel worldwide. With merely 76 rooms, an intimate yet lavishly exclusive experience awaits you here.

The interior exudes a quintessential Bulgari essence, harmonizing dark gold and black hues to kindle a serene yet sumptuous ambiance. The emphasis on suites allows for each with private terraces—a rare luxury in the pulsating heart of Paris.

A Suite of Luxurious Delights

On this occasion, I was housed in a luxurious suite with a terrace. I must mention that even this mid-tier offering dazzled with opulence. The spacious terrace granted panoramic views of the Parisian cityscape, including a distant yet riveting glimpse of Montmartre Hill. The suite boasted separate dressing and vanity areas, along with an inviting welcome spread of fruits, chocolates, and champagne.

A distinctive Bulgari amenity gift box and a cutting-edge innovative pad controlling all in-room settings—lights, temperature, TV, and room service—cemented the room’s luxurious yet practical ethos. At the Bulgari Paris Hotel, even the most luxurious accommodations—like the 400-square-meter penthouse suite with its sprawling 600-square-meter terrace and garden—embody an avant-garde blend of luxury and functionality.

The Crown Jewel of Accommodations

Venturing into the epitome of luxury, I toured the penthouse suite—a realm of sheer sophistication with floor-to-ceiling glass windows in the main bedroom offering a 270-degree panoramic view of Paris. Imagine waking up to the Eiffel Tower just outside your bedroom window. The bathroom, adorned with lavish marble, creates an artistic pièce de résistance that marries grandeur with style.

Exclusive amenities like a separate gym, study, makeup room, and bar area punctuate this suite, while the retro-styled minibar and the premium French Devialet Phantom I 108dB sound system impart a tangible sense of grandeur.

Stepping onto the rooftop terrace redefines the essence of luxury—nestled in the buzz of Paris’s city center, it presents a surreal panorama that feels almost like owning the entire city.

Public Spaces That Redefine Boutique Luxury

Bulgari Paris excels at optimizing its public spaces despite its boutique size. The ground floor houses a plush lounge, an inviting bar, and the Michelin three-starred Il Ristorante-Niko Romito, helmed by the illustrious chef Niko Romito. Meanwhile, the basement level caters to wellness with a state-of-the-art spa, an exquisite swimming pool, and a fully equipped gym.

The hotel treasures guest privacy, meaning photography in these areas is a strict no-no. Still, the official images tantalizingly echo the reality of these spaces. Dining at Il Ristorante-Niko Romito, especially for breakfast, reveals a symphony of choices catering to global palates: from Milanese and Parisian to London breakfast options—all presented with a unique Bulgari flair.

Breakfast in Paris

Opting for the Parisian breakfast felt like an homage to my surroundings. It featured different types of bread with assorted jams and chocolate spreads. However, for those craving more, the avocado salmon dish served as a delightful addition. The elegance of Bulgari is ever-present, with tableware from Richard Ginori, Italy’s oldest porcelain brand, which continues to epitomize supreme craftsmanship.

Conclusion: A Sanctuary of Luxury in Paris

Paris, with its eternal charm and fathomless allure, offers countless reasons to visit. Among these, the Bulgari Hotel Paris stands as a sanctuary of luxury, ensuring that each stay magnifies the romance and grandeur of the city. Whether it’s the opulent suites, the mesmerizing views, the world-class dining, or the exclusive amenities—Bulgari Paris resolves every traveler’s quest for unparalleled luxury.

In a city synonymous with dreams, Bulgari Paris provides a tangible touch of paradise, ultimately proving Xu Zhimo right: “Once you have been to Paris, you will no longer crave paradise.”
