Frommer's "The Ritz is Europe's greatest hotel, an enduring symbol of elegance on one of Paris's most beautiful and historic squares." Full review
Concierge "Is it really as ritzy as the name would imply? That's a definite yes—after all, the adjective itself derives from this 161-room hotel."

Ask for the dusty-rose-tinted Elton John suite under the eaves.
DK Eyewitness "A legendary address, the Ritz still lives up to its reputation, combining elegance and decadence."
Gayot "Swiss hotelier César Ritz founded the Ritz Paris in 1898. The atmosphere was so luxurious that the word 'ritzy' was coined after him. The palace on the magnificent Place Vendôme, now..."
Fodor's "In novels, songs, and the common parlance, there's not a word that evokes the romance and luxury of Paris better than the Ritz." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler ""It goes to show money can buy happiness."... "Quite simply, it’s one of the finest hotels existing."" Full review
Travel + Leisure "An institution since 1898, the lavish, opulent Ritz... has maintained its stature as one of Paris’s leading hotels despite a plethora of trendy newcomers." Full review

"With a sweeping private entrance surrounded by green lawns and an impressive fountain, the upscale Saint James is a rare find in Paris." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Built in 1892 on the city’s first hot air balloon launch field, this Neoclassical château was transformed into a luxury hotel in 1990." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The St-James occupies a mansion with a small park near the Avenue Foch and the Bois de Boulogne... aristocratic atmosphere."
Time Out "A extravagantly gorgeous hotel whose location and history are hard to beat." Full review
Star Service "This hotel's location on the western edge of Paris makes it among the most serene and exclusive hotels in town." Full review
Gayot "At this, the only chateau hotel in Paris, the generously proportioned 48 rooms and suites are decorated in a low-key 1930s style with flowers, plants and bathrooms clad in gray mosaic tile."
BlackBook "A half-French, half-American named Bambi Sloan takes credit for interior design of clashing striped-on-floral funk and hot-air balloon wallpaper that somehow works dazzlingly."
Condé Nast Traveler "Forty-eight delightfully renovated rooms and suites in a garden-surrounded neoclassical mansion built in 1892 in the elegant sixteenth arrondissement." Full review
