The InterContinental Paris Le Grand, opened during the reign of Napoleon III, is located in the very heart of the city: across the street from the Opéra Garnier, close to some of the best-known Parisian attractions, world-famous department stores and the wonderful Place Vendôme. The hotel contains 470 rooms, all richly decorated in the colours of the Opéra, and a warmly illuminated haven of peace and serenity in the bustle of Parisian life: la Verrière.

This may be my favorite IHG property. First - the hotel is perfectly situated. The neighborhood is beautiful, safe and there are many shops/cafes/restaurants/cultural attractions in walking distance. When we wanted to venture out further, there was a metro station a few steps away, as well as a bus stop. I don't think we could have chosen a better home-base in Paris. The building itself is steeped in history. We were lucky enough to connect with Alejandra Perez, who very kindly (and very patiently!) took us around the hotel while pointing out some of its more interesting architectural features. When you go to Café de la Paix , look up! Not only is the ceiling a beautifully painted work of art, but you can also see evidence that the building has stood through war. Our room had a balcony with a view of the Opera Garnier. Unfortunately, there was scaffolding covering the building. If you are heading to the hotel soon (while they are still sprucing up the city in preparation for the Olympics), you may want to call to see if your view will be obstructed. Even with the view not being what we hoped for, we loved being able to go out there to see and hear the street performers who played for the audiences of people who were gathered on the steps of the Opera. We did not opt for lounge access when we made our reservations. However, we were invited in as guests for tea one day. If I had the chance to do this visit over, I would upgrade to have club lounge access based on that one experience alone. The food was outstanding and the service was impeccable! We loved everything about this stay. It had everything you would expect from a 5* hotel (we *may* have gone to the fitness center to grab a few bottles of Alain Milliat mango nectar vs. actually working out...). We felt welcomed every time we walking into the hotel, and we felt cared for. We will absolutely return!…

We had lunch in the lobby lounge. It is a beautiful spot with the very high up glass roof that means the whole place is pleasantly light and airy even with the (appropriately) old style but well maintained furnishings. Unlike many lobby lounges of even 5* hotels where one can wait for ages to place orders and get food and drinks, there were plenty of staff rushing around so things moved quickly and efficiently. We had 2 x oysters, foie gras, caesar salad and a few Pisco sour and margarita cocktails. All very good. Though not inexpensive, worth it. We have a 3 yr old boy who wanted to walk around the place and look at all the beautiful paintings. He's not noisy or disruptive but the point is no issue having a small child with you. That is not always the case. Big thumbs up. Especially on a rainy day in Paris when the usual activity of walking around and seeing the sites is much less appealing.…

This beautiful property boasts the Cafe de la Paix for a wonderful weekend brunch. Front desk team is excellent. Concierge Beth was outstanding....but the real "shining star" is Mr Gilley, club manager. The club offerings are first class and Mr Gilky is the best in the whole European Intercontinental Club system.

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights in early April. This is the best hotel I stayed in Paris, my two rooms was upgraded and I can see the Eiffel Tower from the balcony. The breakfast is so good in the hotel, lots of choices and Cafe de La Paix is amazing. I will definitely come back. The only small issue is that the shower pressure is a bit low, but bearing in mind It is an old building. Overall high end hotel with excellent service.

Another great visit! We used points for the 3 night stay (29 January - 1 February) and then paid the Ambassador-discounted rate for lounge access. This was the end of our 2 week French trip, and there were on-going "manifestations" now and then in France. One of these was on our 2nd full day, 31 January. For this reason and because I have been to Paris over 50 times and was tired from our arrival in Paris 10 days prior on day 1 of the "manifestations", then 3 days each in Nice, Marseille, and Lyon with train rides in between, I just took it easy. We arrived at the hotel about 15h (3 pm) on Sunday afternoon and left on Wednesday afternoon about 14h (2pm). I didn't leave the hotel for 71 hours! My other half went shopping several times in the area. We enjoyed breakfast each morning in the Café de la Paix. With lounge access, we had choice of lounge or restaurant for our complimentary breakfast. I also have Diamond status so I could choose breakfast as a benefit had I not added lounge access. The points (I have so many) or drink option (we can drink in the lounge) just aren't that special, but I took the points! I spent most of the time (about 8 hours + each day) in the lounge. I read, checked my email, played games on my phone, visited with other guests, etc. while I enjoyed light lunch snacks, afternoon desserts, and a great spread each evening. The 1st two nights, there were raw oysters. I had too many! I think that's why there was none on night #3. They had many other dishes plus cheeses, breads, and other small snacks. It was enough to fill us up. The lunch bites were sufficient given how much we had for breakfast with omelets made to order, pastries, meats, fruits, etc. Gilles had been sick so he was only there on one of our mornings. He is the greatest and took care of all requests. A young trainee was there, and he tried his best. I forget his name. He spent much time with us when in the lounge as he was trying to improve his English. Many times he was on duty elsewhere such as the front desk. Two African men went above and beyond as well. We enjoyed many glasses/bottles of wine plus a few of champagne as well. I also drank several Coke Zeroes as well as bottled water. When not in the lounge, we enjoyed our room. It took 3 tries at check-in (in the lounge) before we finally got a room with a tub! I enjoy soaking my sore, tired feet! As usual, all of our needs and requests were handled professionally. We would notify a member of the cleaning staff, if nearby, or the person in the lounge to have our room cleaned while we weren't in the room! One oddity: we found a half eaten Toblerone bar in the mini fridge. How someone maneuvered this so that the sensor was not activated! I showed the attached photo, and we weren't charged, but they did replace with an uneaten one before we left. We also get a 20€ stay credit for my Ambassador status but didn't use it! The lounge pretty much makes it an "all-inclusive" stay! In conclusion, I doubt I would ever again spend 71 consecutive hours without leaving the hotel. The "manifestation" was not something I wanted to stumble upon again after having arrived in Paris on 19 January to a closed Metro, a taxi ride with many side street detours, and then congestion outside our IHG Republique hotel. Originally, we were going to stay our last 3 nights in Paris proper at the CP, but I changed that reservation on the evening of our arrival to Le Grand! I am glad I did since CP had closed their lounge and really has nothing great to offer in comparison except its proximity to Gare de Lyon where we took our train to Nice and arrived from Lyon! I hope to stay at Le Grand again in early November when we next plan to return to Paris. Comme d'habitude, MERCI. MERCI, MERCI!!!…

A beautiful hotel, great location, perfect service: a high end place! But make sure you get a nice room as rooms can be quite tiny: we are in the room 3106, it is large, full of light, with a view on Opera Garnier... an ideal place to spend hours indoors relaxing. Highly recommended!

Absolutely give 5 stars - the service was exceptional. Extremely helpful with solid recommendations. The hotel restaurant was 5 stars. The service and attention was beyond expectations. Close to subway as well - location was great. I highly recommend. It was so nice to come back to a welcoming, pampering hotel after a day of exploring Paris.

The hotel ticks many boxes, but reviewed against the price point and in view of other hotels I would say that it has lost some of its edge. It is hard modernising in such a grand old building, and whilst the the place is spotless, the rooms just aren’t up to the mark when considering the €600 a night price. Staff were very friendly and polished, but you would not expect anything less. My biggest gripe is that the hotel has charged a premium for an opera view room, even though the opera is currently clad in scaffolding - I would have thought that this should be made clear when booking as it is bordering on wrongful deception.

Dear Vasszaytsev, Thank you for choosing InterContinental Paris Le Grand for your recent stay in Paris and for taking the time to share your very valuable feedback with us. First of all, please allow me to apologise for any disappointment experienced with regards to the scaffolding that is currently in place on the Opera Garnier. Ahead of the Olympic games, all Parisian monuments are undergoing renovations. I am very sorry that you were assigned to a room directly overlooking the scaffolding clad part of the Opera House rather than an Opera view room that does still benefit from the view. I do apologise for this oversight on our part, this was not at all intentional. Thank you for your kind words with regards to the staff, it will be a pleasure to share your praise with them. I do hope that we will have the pleasure of welcoming you to Paris again in the future. Kind Regards Christophe Laure General Manager Area General Manager
