Situated within the heart of the three Parises, the business district, the cultural quarter, and the famous shopping areas of the Boulevard Haussmann, the Concorde Saint-Lazare enjoys a truly privileged location. From its imposing, yet elegant exterior one enters the monumental hall, which, in keeping with the hotels grand origins, boasts jewel-encrusted columns of pink granite. The lobby, impressively styled in the Baroque tradition with mirrors, bronze and crystal chandeliers, and marble pillars is adorned with paintings and sculptures, specially commissioned from artist Charles Joseph Lameire. This hotel is truly a reflection of its history and its location. The new furniture in the lobby is the work of the famous designer Hierro. It perfectly fuses the Eiffel-inspired style of the buildings origins with a contemporary edge, seamlessly representing the modern yet historic atmosphere of the hotel. The hotel has an international feel, not least because 10 of the 12 reception rooms are named after capitals of Europe and the very streets, which surround the Concorde Saint-Lazare, are also named after the European metropolitan destinations. There are 266 spacious bedrooms, tastefully decorated with an air of sophistication and opulence.
