Hotel Raphael

… Paris performs an intimate ballet, choreographed uniquely for each room at Hotel Raphael. From one terrace, the Eiffel Tower pirouettes against a backdrop of zinc rooftops, while from another, the Arc de Triomphe stands in noble salute. The morning light paints the city in pastels, casting long shadows across Haussmann facades, while sunset gilds every monument in imperial gold. Some guests wake to find their room softly filled with the rose-gold dawn reflecting off the Iron Lady's latticed frame, others end their day watching the Arc de Triomphe emerge from dusk like a bronze ghost. It's a private theater where the City of Light plays all the leading roles, and every window frame becomes a proscenium arch for Paris's never-ending show.

As visitors complete their check-in formalities, staff members guide them to the elevators, keeping secret the theatrical unveiling that awaits. The ascent begins quietly enough—but as the cabin rises through the heart of the Hotel Raphael, floor by floor, the Arc de Triomphe suddenly emerges in majestic splendor through the elevator's panoramic windows. Without fail, gasps of delight and the swift reach for cameras mark this moment of discovery—a cherished ritual that has become as precious to the staff as it is to their guests.

The crescendo of this vertical voyage culminates at the hotel's crowning glory: a rooftop sanctuary where the City of Light stretches in a breathtaking 360-degree panorama. During the warm embrace of spring and summer, the gourmet restaurant and sky-high bar invite visitors to dine and drink in rarefied air, where the Eiffel Tower stands as their dining companion, transforming every meal into a moment of Parisian magic.

From its privileged perch in the heart of Paris, the Hotel Raphael offers guests spectacular views of the city's most iconic landmarks. Thoughtfully designed to showcase magnificent Parisian vistas, each view-facing accommodation presents a unique perspective on the City of Light.
