The Best Hotels In Paris' 1st Arrondissement

Picture of Stephanie Cvetkovic

Updated: 19 June 2018
The first arrondissement of Paris was, once upon a time, home to the King, and with its high-end shops, intricate architecture and posh restaurants, you may think the sleeping quarters are still reserved for such hierarchy. However, quite a bit has changed since the 17th century, and the 1st now boasts a large selection of hotels ready to welcome you with open arms – royal or not – during your Paris stay, with accommodation to suit all budgets – and tastes. We have carefully crafted a list of the best hotels in the 1st arrondissement. From high-end luxury to quirky and budget-friendly, they’ve got everything to help make your nights in Paris just as pleasurable as your days.

The crème de la crème of traditionally styled places to stay in the 1st is Le Meurice, a five-star 19th-century palace-turned-hotel in a prime location opposite Les Jardin de Tuileries. Le Meurice is part of the highly esteemed Dorchester group and offers all you would expect from such an establishment, with a three-star Michelin restaurant, an on-site spa, and incredible suites that would rival even that of the King’s. The place simply exudes class, luxury and grandeur, and its prices reflect that. With rooms starting from over 800 euros a night, Le Meurice is a place most people can only dream of; however, it certainly does make for pretty dreams.

If you’re after that traditional, regal French style but can’t quite stretch your budget to a stay at Le Meurice, Hotel Mayfair Paris is the next best thing, offering rooms from around 165 euros per night.

The phrase ‘It’s all in the name’ couldn’t be truer for Hotel Crayon; using bright colors to offer a ‘color-block style’ and a mix of vintage and modern furniture, the design of this quirky little boutique hotel really is unique. Closer to the Les Halles neighborhood of the 1st arrondissement, it puts you in the ideal location to explore both sides of what the 1st has to offer – with vintage shops and independent cafés, bars and restaurants to your right and the more stately, regal part of the area to your left, surrounding Le Louvre – all within walking distance. A true gem, with affordable prices, the three-star Hotel Crayon truly is one of a kind.

While Le Meurice is the King of traditional, The Mandarin Oriental is without a doubt its modern counterpart. Having hosted many celebrities over the years, The Mandarin Oriental is simply sublime. Located on Rue St. Honoré, it sits among boutiques from some of the most renowned brands in the fashion industry on one of the most stylish streets in the world. An on-site spa and fitness studio, Bang and Olufsen in-room entertainment systems and even a ‘pillow-menu’, there is nothing The Mandarin Oriental doesn’t offer, and with prices starting at over 900 euros a night, it’s probably a good thing.
