Les Ambassadeurs
Les Ambassadeurs is the bar inside Le Crillon, and it may be the most beautiful room in which to have a drink in Paris. Set within the 18th-century palace on Place de la Concorde, it is all gilt, marble, and chandelier-lit grandeur — the kind of room that makes ordering a single cocktail feel like an occasion.
You do not need to be staying at the Crillon to come; you simply need to want one genuinely magnificent drink in one genuinely magnificent setting. It is worth the visit on the room alone.
The grand bar of Hôtel de Crillon (Rosewood), facing Place de la Concorde — gilded 18th-century splendor, expert cocktails, impeccable service. A destination bar that happens to live inside a palace.
You do not need to be staying at the Crillon to come; you simply need to want one genuinely magnificent drink in one genuinely magnificent setting. It is worth the visit on the room alone.
One cocktail in this room is worth ten in a lesser one. Book the aperitif hour, dress accordingly, and let the Crillon do the rest.
Come for a drink even if you're not a hotel guest — the room is the experience.
Dress well; this is the high end of Paris hotel-bar culture.
Best for a special-occasion aperitif rather than a casual round.
