PB hotel design editorial

Few hotels anywhere have made a single colour do as much work as the crimson awnings, geranium window boxes, and scarlet-trimmed bed throws that define the street presence and interior signature of Hotel Plaza Athénée. Situated on Avenue Montaigne since 1911, the property was built by architect Jules Lefebvre in the Haussmann tradition — cream limestone, wrought-iron balustrades, arched ground-floor arcades — and its facade has remained essentially unchanged, a fixed point in Paris's most fashion-saturated quarter. The 188 rooms and suites were refreshed under the direction of Marie-José Pommereau, whose approach kept the language of Second Empire domesticity intact: deep-coffered boiserie, crystal chandeliers, Louis XVI fauteuils upholstered in damask, gilt console tables set against pale grey boiserie panels. The inner courtyard, entirely consumed by Virginia creeper climbing five stories of dressed stone, functions as an open-air dining room in warmer months, its limestone paving and cast-iron garden chairs framed by olive trees and clipped topiary. The tension the hotel navigates with particular skill is between the earnestly classical and the decidedly contemporary. In the bar — known as Bar Classique — Patrick Jouin and Sanjit Manku of Jouin Manku have installed a sculpted, back-lit resin counter whose fluid, almost molten form sits deliberately against the dark boiserie panelling and Gothic arched windows surrounding it, a cobalt ceiling installation amplifying the collision. The guestroom palette stays committed to champagne, ivory, and deep crimson throughout, the patterned Savonnerie-style carpets and draped silk curtains maintaining a register closer to a well-appointed private apartment than a hotel room.

"My sister and I were fortunate to have a lunch reservation in La Cour Jardin on May 7. I believe it was only the second day of opening for the season . We were greeted by Emma and served by Matheo . Enzo and Lorenzo provided excellent oversight of our experience. Everything was perfect and the food could not have been more delicious (lobster burger, sea bass, beurre sucre and salted caramel ice cream sundae). Thanks for the lovely day, can’t wait to return!"

"10 out of 5. The vets best hotel. Ever !! The location the vibe !! I felt I was in a movie. They knew our name from the time we got out of the car. They really are the best. My daughter Chloe is 14 she said mom I can live here. They made her feel so special. We wanted to never leave !! Thank you thank you we will be back. We had the Eiffel Tower view literally amazing experience."

"Too bad I couldn’t add my review for the bar only. The hotel itself doesn’t deserve my bad score. Back to The Avenue Montaigne terrace. We had lunch there, and I must say I regret it with all my heart. Super steep prices, like 14 € for a small Coke Zero. Imagine then the cost of a glass of Möet that we ordered, that was super flat without bubbles. We sent it back. The onion soup did not have enough cheese, just bread and onion, again, for 30€ for one small bowl. My complaint is really not the price. It’s the two waitresses that met us in a downgrading way and continued to meet every customer that I have problems with. How can such an establishment hire people that don’t go above and beyond for their customers but instead treat them like we are ruining their day? Not one smile. Rude, not French arrogance but downward unwelcoming. I really wanted to go one of the Michelin restaurants for dinner later but we decided not to, on fear of this customer treatment being their norm. If you want to spend a ridiculous amount of money for mediocre food, flat champagne and awful customer service, then The Avenue Montaigne terrace is for you. Don’t say I didn’t warn you"
