Café de la Paix, which sits on the corner of the Boulevard des Capucines and the Place de l’Opéra, has played a leading role in the vibrant Opera district, hosting generations of Parisians as they met, found love or shared moments together, over coffee or a meal; its terrace the place to see and be seen for generations. Its decor, listed as a historical monument, has been carefully restored and complemented with modern, warm, and comfortable furniture befitting the current era. The large dining room has been divided into two spaces to best serve its guests throughout the day. The Boulevard des Capucines space retains its fluted columns and ceilings adorned with painted skies, with darker woods and furnishings including armchairs upholstered in cream leather and benches in green velvet. On the Place de l'Opéra side, the décor is lighter and more relaxed, showcasing its famed painted ceiling.
Christophe Laure, General Manager of InterContinental Paris - Le Grand commented: "I am proud to see the hotel and Café de la Paix, the site of so much history and where the codes of luxury hotels were invented, reclaim their significant place in Paris’ luxury hospitality landscape. We look forward to safely welcoming guests from near and far very soon and sharing our renowned hospitality with them."
