Cheval Blanc Paris Opens September 2021

Cheval Blanc Paris Will Open September 7, 2021, after its opening was postponed by the pandemic (see 2020 Luxury Hotel Openings Postponed by Coronavirus). Cheval Blanc is the luxury hotel brand of LVMH, which owns Louis Vuitton and many other luxury brands, such as Christian Dior, Givenchy, Bulgari, Marc Jacobs, Celine, Stella McCartney, and others. LVMH acquired Belmond in 2018, increasing its luxury hotel presence around the world, although the branding has remained separate. Cheval Blanc Paris will be the brand's fifth hotel worldwide and the third in France, after Courchevel and St. Tropez; the two other properties are Cheval Blanc Randheli in the Maldives and Cheval Blanc St. Barth Isle de France in St. Barths.

Cheval Blanc Paris Location

The new Cheval Blanc Paris is part of the landmark former La Samaritaine department store, which is in a prime location on the banks of the Seine, by the Pont Neuf. The Louvre Museum is a mere 4 minute walk, Notre Dame Cathedral is a 12-13 minute walk, the Luxeumbourg Gardens are a 15 minute walk, and the Musee d'Orsay Museum is a 17-18 minute walk.

Cheval Blanc Paris Rooms and Suites

Rooms start with the entry level Deluxe Room, 484 sq. ft. (45 sq. m.), with either one king bed or two twin beds. This room type can connect to a Deluxe Junior Suite, a Seine Suite or the Notre Dame Suite, useful for families. We love that even this entry level room has a walk-in closet.

Above the Deluxe Room is the Louvre Deluxe Room, which is the same size, but with a view of the Louvre Museum, and the next category up from that is the Balcony Deluxe Room, also 484 sq. ft., but on a high floor, with a balcony.

Guests wanting more space but still content with a single large room should reserve a Seine Junior Suite, which overlooks the Seine River and is 592 sq. ft. (55 sq. m.). The next two categories are the Balcony Junior Suite, which is the same size, also overlooking the Seine, but on a high floor, with a balcony, and the Deluxe Junior Suite, which is larger, at 699 sq. ft. (65 sq. m.)
