We start with the most classical of all. Located on the Vendôme Square (18 place Vendôme), the Ritz Paris hotel was created in 1898 by César Ritz, French great luxury creator and designer. In France, it is one of the most famous 5-stars hotels. The reason for that is that Coco (“Mademoiselle”) Chanel decided to live there in 1937. She gave to the Ritz design ideas; hence you will be able to see the very special atmosphere of this hotel, which is still one of the best hotels in Paris, in France, and in the World. Visit website

Founded in 1899, this 5-stars hotel is the place where French President Nicolas Sarkozy celebrated is victory in 2007. There was a polemic about this party because N.
