Luxury hotels in Paris

Paris is one of the world's most celebrated cities, and its five-star hotels match the grandeur of the destination itself. This curated collection brings together the finest 5-star properties in Paris, each holding a guest rating of 9.0 or above — a benchmark that reflects genuine excellence in service, comfort, and location.

What to Expect from Paris's Top-Rated Five-Star Hotels

The best five-star hotels in Paris are concentrated around iconic neighborhoods: the 1st and 8th arrondissements near the Champs-Élysées and the Tuileries Garden, as well as Saint-Germain-des-Prés on the Left Bank. Properties at this level typically feature Haussmann-era architecture or carefully restored historic buildings, paired with contemporary interiors. Guests can expect spacious rooms with refined furnishings, Michelin-starred or highly regarded on-site dining, full-service spas, and concierge teams with deep knowledge of the city. The high minimum rating of 9.0 means only properties with consistently exceptional guest feedback are included.

Location and Access

Paris is well connected by two main international airports — Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Orly (ORY). The RER B train links CDG to central Paris in approximately 35 minutes. Most five-star hotels in this collection are within walking distance of major landmarks such as the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, and the Palais Royal, making it easy to explore the city on foot or by the extensive Métro network.
