Michelin Guide Star
"The Celadon becomes the Petit Celadon at the weekend, with a simplified menu and more relaxed service."
Fodor's "On one of the most prestigious streets in Paris, between the Opéra and Place Vendôme, this former inn was built in the mid-19th century and happily retains its old-world feel." Full review
Gayot "This attractive mid-size luxury hotel is advantageously situated near the Tuileries Gardens and the Louvre."
Oyster4.0
"In a location that's convenient for both tourists and business travelers, it provides luxury accommodations and a level of service comparable to its five-star neighbors." Full review
Star Service "Between the Mercure Paris Opera Garnier and Hotel Stendhal Place Vendome Paris, and a few doors from the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendome, this property in the 2nd arrondissement remains a Parisian classic." Full review

Tip: avoid rooms in the -05 series: These are the smallest in the house.
Lonely Planet "At this Parisian classic, 80% of the rooms are decorated in historical styles (Louis XV and Louis XVI to Napoleon III and Regency), with richly patterned wallpaper and curtains, while 20% have a streamlined, contemporary decor." Full review
Time Out "The building was once a private townhouse but became a hotel in 1905 and following a welcome makeover in 2015, it now boasts 101 rooms, comprising 80 rooms and 21 suites." Full review

Rough Guide "Palatial opulence in the style of Louis XVI, with unsurpassed vistas over Paris and superlative en suites."
Frommer's "This landmark lies between the place de la Concorde and the Grand Louvre, facing the Tuileries Gardens." Full review
Concierge "Le Meurice still has a vaguely decadent and artistic tone that sets it apart from other high-priced Parisian gilt trips."
Fodor's "Since 1835, the Meurice has welcomed royalty and celebrities... and Paris' first palace hotel continues to please with service, style, and views." Full review
Insight Guides "Elegant, 18th-century-style salons and a Michelin-starred restaurant are among the many assets of this historic grand hôtel."
DK Eyewitness "The Meurice is a perfect example of successful restoration, with excellent replicas of the original plasterwork and furnishings."
Time Out "With its extravagant Louis XVI decor, mosaic tiled floors and modish restyling by Philippe Starck, Le Meurice is looking grander than ever." Full review
Star Service "Reviled by some, beloved by others, this lavish wedding-cake-of-a-place is colored up with an ungodly amount of icing, its extravagant baroque sensibility teasing the best duds out of your luggage. " Full review
Gayot "Part of the prestigious Dorchester group, Le Meurice is one of Europe's most highly regarded hotels."
BlackBook "Reminiscent of a palace, offers spacious suites in the style of Louis XVI. Pricey amenities are worth every penny."
