Shangri-La Paris
The Shangri-La Paris is the most opulent five-star in this district. Set in the former mansion of Prince Roland Bonaparte, great nephew of Napoleon, it has some of the most enviable views in the city. Over half of the rooms at the Shangri-La have front-row seats of the sparkly illuminations of the tower that sits 500 meters away, across the river. The hotel’s interior stays true to the building’s history with grand staircases, dramatic façades, and astrological designs on the lobby ceiling. Each of the 100 rooms and suites has been individually designed and if you want to level up, the top-floor suites have panoramic terraces.

The rooms and suites feature an elegant décor, large windows, and amenities befitting a five-star hotel. Some rooms have tower balcony views, so it’s worth inquiring before making a reservation.

Is Eiffel Tower better at night or day?

How long do you typically spend in Eiffel Tower?
Visiting the Eiffel Tower can be a memorable experience, but it is important to plan your visit accordingly. Depending on when you visit and how high up you go, a trip to the Eiffel Tower can take anywhere from two to four hours. If you want to go to the top of the tower, allow at least a couple of hours for your visit. Most of this time will be spent queuing for security and lifts. It’s invariably busy even in winter, so it’s best to plan.
