tranquil place, where the refined splendour
of 18th-century architecture meets the latest
in contemporary comfort and elegance.
As the seasons pass, the creations of threestar

minutes walk from the Hotel Le Meurice, is
full of excellent restaurants and bars.
Shopping

Le Meurice gradually unveils the secrets of
this timeless city. Located in the very heart
of Paris, the hotel is only a short walk from
an exceptional selection of luxury stores
and boutiques on Place Vendôme and Rue
Saint-Honoré. A short distance from the
banking and financial district, the hotel is
also close to some of Paris’s most exclusive
shops such as Hermès, Chanel, Dior,
Armani and Gucci, and some of the city’s
best kept secrets like Goyard, Carlos Miele,
Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu, and the ideal gift
shop, Colette, where you’ll find the latest

You will find these exclusive shops and

Musée des Arts Décoratifs and the Musée
d’Orsay, just across the river.
A brief metro ride will take you to the Eiffel
Tower, Notre-Dame de Paris and the Place
des Vosges - Paris’s oldest square, and a
host of museums and galleries including
the Picasso Museum at the heart of the
Marais district and one of the world’s finest

The Hotel Le Meurice is at the heart of
Parisian cultural life, in between theatres
such as the Théâtre du Chatelet – with its
delightful programme of opera and classical
concerts, the Opéra Garnier and Opéra
Bastille for ballet and opera, and the Opéra
Comique for lyric theatre and drama.
If you need a break from the sightseeing,
enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of the

of Le Meurice’s green bicycles. Imagine the
freedom of taking a leisurely ride along the
Seine, the sun shining overhead and
a gourmet picnic to look forward to.
Fitness fanatics can start the day with a
quick jog in the Tuileries Garden but as
evening falls it’s all about unwinding and
people-watching, as the cafés and bars
around the hotel come to life. Choose from

of the Musée du Louvre, Café Marly.
