LOCATION:
A stone's
throw from the Place Vendôme, the Opera, and the Tuileries, the
Hotel Westminster stands with its Hausmannian facade amongst the prestigious
addresses of the high fashion and jewellery district of Paris.
Its name gives homage to the Duke of Westminster who liked to stay here
in the middle of the 19th century, from whom the hotel took its coat of
arms. Today, the present Duke still stays in the hotel. A noble sign for
an institution where luxury agrees perfectly with discretion.
ACCOMMODATION:
There
are 80 rooms and 22 suites, all decorated with one-of-a-kind antique
furniture and marble fireplaces.
All rooms feature marble bathrooms with bathrobes, luxury toiletries
and hairdryer; individually controlled air conditioning; direct-dial
telephone/fax line with voice mail; personal in-room safe, mini-bar,
cable television, double-paned windows, and twice-daily maid service
including evening turndown.
In addition, guests of Westminster suites are treated to 24-hour
butler service. |

Le Celadon,

Petit Céladon". The service and the decor changes to
welcome one into atmosphere that is both refined and relaxed, comfortable
and cosy, like a family home where one is pleased to find oneself
again.

piano bar, Les Chenets, serves light meals, cocktails, and traditional
afternoon tea. From monday to friday from 6:30 until 9:30p.m, the
pianist Valto Latinen animates cocktail hour.Thyrsday, friday and

The
Westminster just inaugurated its fitness center. Air-conditioned,
with an open view of the rooftops of Paris, it's one of the only
gyms in the capital that is bathed in sunligth.
From the moment one enters, the refined, natural, sophisticated
décor designed by Pierre-Yves Rochon is a veritable invitation
to relaxation.
After the workout on one of eight machines, it's within an authentique
Moorish atmosphere that the hammam envelops you in its hot steam
and scents of eucalyptus. For amateurs accustomed to a more Nordic
atmosphere, a sauna re-energizes along with a shower of massaging
jets. |
