The majestic Beaux-Arts building of The Peninsula Paris, originally debuting as the Hotel Majestic in 1908, has a fascinating history. It was one of the first hotels in Paris to have a rooftop garden and private bathrooms in its rooms and suites. The hotel has hosted some of the most famous artists of the early 20th century, including James Joyce, Marcel Proust, Pablo Picasso, and Igor Stravinsky. After an extensive four-year renovation, The Peninsula Paris reopened in 2014 and, since then, has continued its legacy as a premier destination of luxury and elegance, remaining one of the city’s most distinguished hotels to this day.
