Park Hyatt Paris Vendôme Review

Overlooking the Rue de la Paix, The Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme is one of the most luxurious hotels in Paris. It is consistently named to Condé Nast Traveler’s Gold List, Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Awards and was recently awarded a five-star classification of the highest distinction when it was named one of the official “Palace Hotels” in France. This now puts the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme in the same category as The Hotel Plaza Athenee, Four Seasons Hotel George V, Hotel de Crillon, Hotel Le Meurice, Hotel Le Bristol, Le Royal Monceau and Ritz Paris.

The hotel décor is a blend of contemporary architecture and classic design with the first class service you would expect of a five star hotel.

Park Hyatt Paris Vendôme Location:

Centrally located in Paris’ 2nd Arrondissement and adjacent to Place Vendôme, The Park Hyatt Vendome is within short walking distance to Place de la Concorde, the Tuileries Gardens, the Champs Elysees, the Louvre, the Opéra and some of the finest shopping in Paris.

Park Hyatt Paris Rooms:

The Park Hyatt Vendome has 168 rooms, ranging from a standard Park Queen room to the vast  Presidential and Imperial suites. All rooms have luxurious limestone bathrooms with closet, floor heating, soaking tub, and a stone-enclosed rain shower.

We were given a Park Executive Suite. This Executive Suite consisted of two separate rooms – one with a king bed, bath, desk/writing area and TV – and another with a complete living area with couch, chairs, desk TV and another bathroom. Both rooms also offered Floor-to-Ceiling windows that opened up over the courtyard.The best part of this floor plan was definitely the two separate bathrooms, allowing two people to get ready at the same time without stepping over each other.

Amenities:

There are 2 restaurants – the Michelin rated, Pur' is open for dinner, while Les Orchidées is open for breakfast and lunch. Drinks are available in the outdoor courtyard, La Terrasse, or inside at either the bar or La Cheminée.

There is a Spa and Fitness Center ” Le Spa” that is reserved exclusively for hotel guest. The spa includes a whirlpool bath, a steam room, a sauna, a gym (although it is surprisingly small), and four treatment booths, including one designed especially for couples.

Park Hyatt Vendome Review – Points and Elite Status:

The Park Hyatt Paris Vendome is one of the best “Point” values you will find. Standard rooms typically run about $900 per night with the Executive Suite coming in round $1,500 per night. This is a Hyatt Category 7 hotel, so the a standard room will require 30,000 points per night. Suites are sometimes available with points for 33,000 per night.

I booked an Executive Suite for 3 nights for 99,000 World of Hyatt Points.

As a Diamond member, (now called Globalist) I did not get any further upgrades on my Suite (Diamonds get an upgrade to the best available room, excluding suites), but I did get a complimentary bottle of Champagne sent to the room and complimentary breakfast for my wife and I each day either in the dining room (Les Orchidées) or via room service. The breakfast runs about $130 for two, so this turned out to be a nice benefit of my Diamond status.

Overall, this hotel is very “Point Friendly” and “Elite Status Friendly”, which is fairly rare for an upscale property in a premium location such as this one. Another great property to check on in this same area is the Westin Paris Vendome.

How to Stay Here with Points:

At a rate of 30,000 points per night, there are a couple of ways you can stay at this hotel for free. The first is via staying at Hyatt properties and earning points through stays. If you are going to try to earn free nights this way, make sure to check out the World of Hyatt Promotion page – here you will find a variety of ways to earn Hyatt points and any promotions that are currently being offered to accelerate your earning power. This method will take some time, but if you are a frequent business traveler, it absolutely can be done.

The fastest way to earn free nights at this hotel is to apply for a credit card with a solid bonus offer such as the Hyatt Visa Card or the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card, which offers 1:1 transfers of Ultimate Rewards Points to World of Hyatt Points.
