Seine City: Bazaar Qatar Escapes To The Bvlgari Hotel Paris
Immerse yourself in Roman luxury at the Bvlgari Hotel Paris
With just 76 rooms and suites, intimacy is the Bvlgari Hotel Paris’ quiet superpower. The mood is low-lit and Tom Ford cinematic-esque, the kind of place where your friend with impeccable taste lives. The lobby – anchored by the exquisitely styled Bvlgari Lounge – hums gently throughout the day with discreet business meetings, espresso-fuelled conversations and the kind of effortless comings and goings that signal a hotel very much in-the-know.
Also on the lobby level, tucked behind a private garden, sits the world-renowned Il Ristorante Niko Romito. The 26-table restaurant leans toward Parisian banquette-style dining, though every detail – from the brass accents to the Ginori 1735 porcelain and artisanal bread – remains unmistakably Italian. The room draws a chic, telling mix: well-heeled Parisians, holidaying Italians (always a good sign) and families plotting their next museum visit or Bon Marché expedition.
When it comes to checking in, the Executive Suite (there are four) is, quite simply, a home away from home – only better. Floor-to-ceiling views stretch across Parisian rooftops toward the Eiffel Tower, best admired from the private terrace at sunrise with an espresso or at dusk with an apéritif in hand. The suite is designed for living as much as lounging: generous sitting rooms, fresh flowers and fruit and a dining room that invites entertaining if the mood strikes.
By anywhere standards, it’s impressively expansive. Separate lounges for reading or watching films, a beautifully curated library, dedicated dressing rooms, and a vanity bureau stocked with every conceivable creature comfort. The bathroom is its own indulgent universe – spa-like, intuitive and entirely buttonoperated. One touch and the shower, bath or toilette calibrates itself perfectly, not forgetting the fully stocked Bvlgari amenities.
And then there’s the bed. Sleep, as we know, is the ultimate luxury – but in a Bvlgari bed, it becomes something else entirely. Swathed in cashmere throws and sheets with thread counts edging into the four figures, it’s so lofty that more petite guests may find themselves gently climbing in. Consider it part of the Italian charm. Paris may be the most beautiful city in the world, but this hotel makes a compelling case for staying in. Cool, comfortable and quietly spectacular – you may never make it to the Mona Lisa.
Getting there: Qatar Airways flies to Paris (CDG) four times a day. The hotel can arrange a pick-up from the airport and you will be checked in within an hour.
