In June 2016, after 4 years of renovation, the magnificent H\u00f4tel Ritz at Vend\u00f4me Square in Paris reopens its doors \u2013 the interior remains full of splendour, charm and the illustrious history of the Ritz! Opened on the first of June 1898, the Ritz came together through the audaciousness and influence of the Swiss gentleman C\u00e9sar Ritz\u2026 the man who introduced, almost invented, the new art of chic hospitality and fine cuisine. Indeed, the Ritz oozes French refinement while also securing long-lasting foundations and milestones. Invaluable furniture, decorations, lighting through fabulous diamond chandeliers \u2013 from its opening, the Ritz has counted highly distinguished guests among its clientele\u2026 the Rothschild, the countess of Pourtales, Galouste Gulbenkian, the arch-duke Michel in exile from Russia, Anna Goud, Boni of Castellane. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In 120 years, the Ritz attracted many high profile clients; overcome by its service, restaurant and its impressively beautiful suites. And when we examine the history of Paris, it is often the Ritz which is observed at the centre of the city! Soothed by the magic of its muffled d\u00e9cor, Cole Porter could spend hour after hour seated at the piano \u2013 it is said that he composed Begin the Beguine at this exact spot. King Alphonse XIII of Spain sampled Dom P\u00e9rignon alongside cognac and strawberries in the fine surroundings of the Ritz. Coco Chanel spent the last 40 years of her life there.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I dream of an afternoon in paradise, it always takes place in the Ritz Hotel in Paris\u201d wrote Ernest Hemmingway many years ago. He celebrated the liberation of 1944 in the bar which is now named after him. And the walls of the Ritz now have so many more stories to tell. \u201cThe Ritz kept its style, simultaneously luxurious and intimate. It is a palace and a fantasy, a hotel which is known across the world and undoubtedly a trendsetter\u201d remarks St\u00e9phane Aubert, the manager associated with Artcurial for sales \u201cThere was\u2026 the Ritz Paris\u201d which was held last April. We roamed around the grounds as is done in a palace in French taste \u2013 we travelled across time, transported by the magnificence of a place of dreams, always there to protect the treasure of the past century! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
