Paris is magnificent! A complete guide to the private experience of staying in a century-old palace

✨【Highlights】An art palace that travels through time and space The Rosewood Paris, a historical landmark on the Left Bank of Paris, was formerly the Hôtel de Lauzun, a private residence built in the 19th century. The moment you push open the bronze door, it's like falling into a time capsule of European aristocracy - the 8-meter-high lobby dome is painted with gilded murals, the spiral staircase handrails are wrapped with century-old vine carvings, Picasso prints and Morandi pottery are displayed in the public areas, and even the elevator buttons are antique knobs inlaid with shells. The most surprising thing is the secret garden in the backyard of the hotel, which is covered with lavender and roses in spring. When you sit on the cast iron bench and drink afternoon tea, blue butterflies often rest on the edge of the bone china cup. French romance is embodied at this moment. 🌟【Recommendation reason】Luxury yet not arrogant private butler service Different from the sense of distance of traditional luxury hotels, the butler team here will remember the preferences of each guest: I casually mentioned "I like vinyl" on my check-in card, and the turndown service that night played the soundtrack of "Amelie"; a friend who was allergic to pollen, so the room was replaced with a bouquet of everlasting flowers the next day. Every morning, the butler will deliver a handwritten weather forecast card with the closing time of the Louvre marked on the back. This kind of silent care makes the century-old palace no longer a cold work of art, but a true "Parisian Home". 🏨【Hotel environment】Exquisite balance between classic and modern From the spiral staircase to the guest room corridor, surprises can be found at every step: hidden LED light strips are hidden under the Renaissance-style arches, and smart sensor night lights are embedded in the Baroque-patterned carpets. My favorite is the terrace of the suite on the top floor, with wrought iron railings wrapped with century-old roses. In the evening, I lean on the stone railings and drink a glass of the hotel's own "Left Bank Sunset" cocktail. The lights of the Eiffel Tower in the distance just begin to flicker. At this moment, I finally understand what Hemingway said, "Paris is a moveable feast." 🛏️【Room facilities】A paradise for detail lovers The Saint-Germain Suite I stayed in was equipped with a B&O Bluetooth speaker, a Nespresso capsule coffee machine, and the minibar provided free handmade Parisian chocolates. The floor heating in the bathroom is perfect for autumn and winter. A large bottle of Le Labo rose toiletries set is placed on the marble countertop, and there is even a waterproof reading light next to the bathtub. The most special feature is the smart makeup mirror, which has five built-in scene lights (natural light/dinner light/cloudy mode), which is a lifesaver for travel bloggers who need to take pictures of their outfits. 👫【Most recommended group】 ▪️Couples/honeymoon: Choose a suite with a terrace and share a French breakfast in the morning with a view of the Eiffel Tower ▪️Family travel: The hotel can provide children's tents, picture books and exclusive bathrobes, and the parent-child activity book contains treasure hunt games ▪️Business guests: The executive lounge provides 24-hour freshly ground coffee, and the conference room is equipped with simultaneous interpretation equipment 📍【Surrounding attractions are within walking distance】 · Louvre Museum: 800 meters, through the Tuileries Garden · Orsay Museum: 1.2 km, about 15 minutes walk along the Seine Shakespeare and Company: 600 meters, a pilgrimage site for literary youths around the world Notre Dame de Paris: 1.5 km, recommended to see the rose window in the evening 🍽️【Food and Beverage Test】Michelin-level taste bud journey ▫️Carenne Restaurant: The chef is good at deconstructing classic French cuisine. The truffle foie gras lollipop with port wine jelly is a must-try. It is recommended to make a reservation for a window seat to enjoy the night view of the garden. ▫️Winter Garden Breakfast Restaurant: Must-try freshly baked crepes with salt flower caramel, freshly squeezed orange juice is hand-peeled Mediterranean oranges ▫️The Honoré Bar: Order a "Left Bank Poet" cocktail (gin + elderflower + lavender foam) and listen to the resident pianist play chanson 📌【Practical Guide】 ▫️Address: 10 Rue de l'Université, 75007 Paris ▫️Transportation: Charles de Gaulle Airport: 40 minutes by taxi (€50-60), or take RER Line B to Saint-Michel Notre-Dame Station and transfer to Metro Line 7 · Travel in the city: The nearest metro station is Invalides (Line 13). It is recommended to rent an electric bicycle to roam the Left Bank ▫️Hidden benefits: inform that you are a Ctrip user when checking in, and you can upgrade your room type first (the actual probability is as high as 60%) 💡【Expert Tips】 1. The hotel offers free art tours every Wednesday afternoon, where you can learn more about the treasures in the collection 2. There is a jazz concert every Friday night in the summer garden. It is recommended to book an outdoor seat in advance 3. When you check out, you will be given a handwritten thank you card and hotel-customized aromatherapy tablets, which can be placed in your suitcase to leave the scent of Paris After staying in more than 20 hotels in Paris, only the Grand Hyatt Paris made me want to stay there forever. It is not a luxury built with gold and splendor, but a French dream that people do not want to wake up from, woven with the carvings on each door handle, the pattern on each carpet, and the smile of each butler. If you ask me where the romance of Paris lies, I would say: in the morning mist on the terrace of the Rosewood Hotel, on the rim of the hot chocolate cup handed to me by the butler, and in every moment of history that one can see when opening the window. ✨
