Luxury à la Française
Just a stone’s throw from the Champs-Elysées, the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe, the Hotel Raphael presents guests with their very own Parisian home away from home. Ranked among the top 25 hotels in France by Condé Nast Traveler, the Raphael is a much sought-after address.
In 1925, following the inauguration of the Regina and Majestic hotels, the Groupe Baverez opened the Raphael, a hotel designed for a VIP clientele offering a modest number of guest rooms all specifically designed to preserve the uniqueness of the address and secure an intimate and private ambiance to ensure the well-being of the guests.
Today, Véronique Valcke, Managing director of Hôtels Baverez, tends to the “hospitality savoir-faire” that makes this address so unique.

On the dining side there is the Lounge “Le 17”, an English Bar and Terrace to promote the very best of French cuisine. The hotel’s chefs bring out the best of their seasonal finds to create subtly refined inventive dishes.
The cozy intimate mood of the English Bar recalls a London Club making it the ideal spot for a quiet chat over a drink at any time of the day or evening. Subdued lighting, wood paneling and armchairs upholstered in red velvet … you are very likely to spot statesmen, political leaders, academics, film directors, actors, writers and even journalists.
Ranked among the top 25 hotels in France by Condé Nast Traveler, the Raphael is a much sought-after address.
The 7th and final floor is the real show-stopper: a 145m² roof-top terrace with unparalleled panoramic views of Paris. The terrace can even be retained for private events. A haven of peace and greenery with over 100 different varieties of flowers and shrubs. Unexpected luxury in the heart of the capital.
With nearly 100 years of experience, the Hotel Raphael is undoubtedly an ideal of French-style luxury.
