"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

Tip: avoid rooms in the -05 series: These are the smallest in the house.

Michelin Guide
Star
"It was at L'Hotel that the great Oscar Wilde died in 1900. The atypical, aesthetic decor, updated by Jacques Garcia, still manages to pay homage to artistic pomp and splendour."
Frommer's
"Ranking just a notch below the Relais Christine , this is one of the Left Bank's most charming boutique hotels." Full review
Concierge
"The glitterati and sophisticated couples keep this 20-room property booked solid, so reserve two to three months in advance for high-season accommodation."
Fodor's
"There's something just a bit naughty in the air at this eccentric and opulent boutique hotel." Full review
Insight Guides
"This legendary hotel has been redecorated by Jacques Garcia, but retains something of its old sense of decadence in the extravagant decor, cellar fumoir and mini swimming pool."
Travel + Leisure
"Expect red brocade walls, floor-length silk draperies, oversize tassels, and ornate patterns covering every surface." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"A riot of exuberance and opulence, this Jacques Garcia-designed hotel is gloriously decadent."
