The takeover of this jewel of the Paris hotel scene by a world-renowned luxury watch and jewelry house will leave its mark on the hotel’s history, and is a real invitation to rediscover it… Located at number 1 on one of Paris’s most famous squares, the superb building housing this 5-star hotel was built in 1723 by Pierre Perrin.

With its 29 rooms, including 10 suites, the Hôtel de Vendôme has become a must-visit venue over the years. While its charm and exceptional location in the heart of Paris have a lot to do with this, its bar and restaurant have also played a major role. Artists, businessmen and ordinary visitors have long been accustomed to meeting here in a couture-inspired setting. The finest gourmets, meanwhile, are delighted with the fine seasonal French cuisine offered by chef Josselin Marie at the gastronomic restaurant “Le 1 place Vendôme”. Having worked in some of the world’s finest restaurants (Jacques Chibois, Alain Pégouret, Marc Meneau, Laurent Poitevin and Jean-Pierre Cassagne), he skilfully brings out the very best in market produce…

This acquisition is part of a drive to perpetuate Chopard’s network of directly-operated boutiques, and is also the concrete expression of a diversification project in the luxury sector. The brand’s flagship boutique has been located on the first floor of the hotel for over ten years. Against this backdrop, the famous Geneva-based brand is planning future investments that will make the Hôtel de Vendôme more than ever a benchmark address.
