Paris is always a good idea – Audrey Hepburn in  Sabrina, 1954

42 Avenue Gabriel 

Just remember this address when planning your next trip to Paris! Then of course La Réserve Paris. The urban mansion is tucked away in one of the most beautiful, peaceful locations in Paris, right around the President’s official palace and a skip away from the stomping grounds of the chic Parisians – Avenue Montaigne on one side and Champs-Elysées on the other. La Réserve Paris is all about the vibe, the atmosphere and the story. Forget all that you’ve learned about hotels because this one takes it to the next level. From drop off to take off, every detail and every gesture is executed with only the guests in mind. From the moment we arrive, we are gently taken by the hand (figuratively of course) and treated as if we were family. There is no such thing as a reception desk or even a lobby. Salon Louis XV is where each guest is personally welcomed and shown to their quarters. Although this hotel exudes affluence and riches in every cell of its being, it also reveres simplicity and discretion. Quite refreshing in today’s world where loud displays of success are sometimes more celebrated than tact and demure.

THE DETAILS

Talk about details! Every suite has its own dedicated butler who knows everything he/she should know about their guests. From their full names, birthdays, possible allergies to their favorite flowers. All these details are taken into consideration throughout their stay – the butlers are just an iPad away! Each room has its unique flair and tone – different furniture, colors and art but all share magnificent views and rich fabrics and materials.

Library | Smoking Lounge

It’s like going back in time while being completely rooted in the present. The past is witnessed through the details, the generous materials, the deep colors and the books. The spirit of once upon a time is fully there and open to be experienced. Guests can invite their friends and together travel back to La Belle Époque. The library, reserved for guests and their friends offers a collection of books found nowhere else. The smoking lounge is perfect for bonding and writing new stories.

LA PAGODE DE COS

“Paris-Bordeaux… The latest Jérôme Banctel restaurant pays tribute to Cos d’Estournel, Second Grand cru classé Saint-Estèphe belonging to La Réserve owner Michel Reybier. The only chateau in the Bordeaux region to feature exotic pagodas, it was indeed the first to export its production to India. La Pagode de Cos perpetuates this spirit of epicurean creativity. Within the elegant setting of the private mansion at 42, Avenue Gabriel, La Pagode de Cos exalts all the distinctive codes of the French art of living, exemplified in its flowered silk-upholstered armchairs, its finely wrought gilded woodwork and its monumental fireplace.” For both lunch and dinner, one can enjoy the creations of two-star Michelin chef Jérôme Banctel. Every single bite I had was pure delight for my palate and my tummy!

See you soon La Réserve 🙂 I’m coming back for Fashion Week! If  you’re in Switzerland, check out La Réserve in Geneva. Completely different style and vibe but as fabulous.
