Rare space in Paris, where most hotels in the same tier settle for small facilities.
Le Royal Monceau is a historic hotel that opened in 1928 on Avenue Hoche off the Arc de Triomphe, and reopened in 2010 after a complete redesign signed by the French designer Philippe Starck. The result of that redesign is what separates it from the other Paris palaces. The interior is not classical: mirrors, deliberately mismatched furniture and rooms that read closer to the private house of an art collector than to a formal hotel. It also holds an art gallery and an art bookshop, an orientation that is stated rather than incidental. The hotel has a long-established Arab and Gulf following and is an address this market knows well. The pool and spa are among the largest in any Paris hotel, which matters in a city where hotel spa space is scarce. The location is a few minutes on foot from the Arc de Triomphe and the top of the Champs-Élysées, with the quiet Parc Monceau nearby — one of the prettiest Paris gardens and among the least crowded with tourists.
Not necessarily. The design here is clearly contemporary and unconventional. If you are after classical Parisian luxury, the George V or the Prince de Galles are closer to it.
Usually yes, with a booking and a separate fee, but guests have priority and the policy varies by season — call the hotel to confirm before planning around it.

A gallery and art bookshop inside the hotel — part of its identity, not a decorative extra.
One of the prettiest and least crowded Paris gardens — an excellent alternative to the packed central parks.
