Rooms
Renaissance’s trademark values — indigenous, intriguing, independent — make sense with decorator Didier Gomez’s vision of French charm. Working in contrasts to create surprise effects, he weaves the same running thread across centuries and genres, steering clear of the pitfalls of too-often linear stylistic exercises. Eighteenth-century classicism echoes contemporary rooms while vintage furniture relaxes the noble materials, like a private home where periods are conflated as the various occupants come and go. The Renaissance Paris Vendôme’s 97 guestrooms eschew certain hotel traditions, emphasizing the comfort, mood and rhythm of a big private “house”. This hotel is ideal for experiencing Paris like a real Parisian, with intimacy, charm and some unexpected touches.
Restaurant
In less than a year, Balagan — Hebrew for “Joyful Bazar” — has carved out a reputation for itself that is fitting for the capital: exceptional. Despite being in the heart of a perimeter with no shortage of quality restaurants, Balagan immediately became a new foodie hub and pulled off the amazing feat of drawing all the city’s night owls to this “daytime” neighborhood. From the boudoir cocktail bar to the restaurant counter, it brings together influential gastronomes, the most beautiful girls in Paris, fancy dandies and bons vivants, reconciling jet-setters and fussy diners in search of the soulful little touch that turns eating into a feast!
Location
The Renaissance Paris Vendôme hotel, a five-star boutique hotel, is located in the heart of Paris just a few steps from the Louvre Museum, Place Vendôme and the unmissable exhibitions of the Grand Palais.
