La Réserve

Paris, France

• No.31 The World's 50 Best Hotels 2023

Opened in 2015, La Réserve epitomises refined French luxury in the heart of Paris, just a stone’s throw from the Champs-Elysées. Housed in a Haussmann mansion built for Napoleon III’s half-brother, this Michel Reybier property seamlessly blends Belle Époque glamour with modern comforts, Carrara marble, jewel-hued colour pops and velvet in surplus, emblematic of Parisian designer Jacques Garcia's meticulous aesthetic. With just 25 suites and 15 rooms, the intimate atmosphere feels more like a sumptuous private residence than a hotel, attracting a fashionable crowd of jet setters, epicureans, and cultured comfort-seekers alike. La Réserve’s location in cramped Central Paris does little to deter its profound amenities offering. A 16m indoor pool, hammam, fitness area and Nescens Swiss anti-aging therapies are just a few of the luxuries on offer. The hotel’s culinary programme is overseen by chef Jérôme Banctel, with La Réserve’s flagship restaurant, Le Gabriel, offering hyper-seasonal French cuisine and La Pagode de Cos exploring a global culinary palate with vibrant, lighter fare. Bar Le Gaspard adds classic French sophistication to cocktail hour.
