Hotel Balzac Paris

Loading...

Travel through time

Formerly called Rue Fortunée, Rue Balzac changed its name the same year that the famous writer died. He had lived on it during the last four years of his life, in a house on the site of the current Hôtel Balzac, until 1850. Follow in his footsteps along the elegant facades of this quiet street, a stone's throw from the Champs-Elysées. Your stay in the hotel, whose redesign by the Festen architect duo is inspired by the 1930s, may make you want to (re)read one of the great classics from the creator of La Comédie humaine.

Discover the Champs-Elysées

Arguably the most beautiful avenue in the world, stretching majestically from Place de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs-Elysées is just a stone's throw from the hotel. Take in its legendary sidewalks, stroll among the businesspeople and elegant shoppers crowding its cafés and upscale stores and enjoy the energy of a modern district that's rich in history. For an exceptional gastronomic experience, treat yourself to a three-Michelin-starred dinner at Pierre Gagnaire, which adjoins Hôtel Balzac.

Bar & Snacks area

Epitomizing the Parisian art of hospitality, Hôtel Balzac welcomes guests into the tranquility of its lounge, beneath a glass roof, for light lunches or gourmet afternoon teas by the fireplace. When it's time for aperitifs, the head bartender creates signature cocktails amid the cozy atmosphere of the bar.
