Whether you’re admiring it from a penthouse suite, the rooftop of a luxury hotel, or the window of a skyscraper at Porte Maillot, the Eiffel Tower reveals itself from a different angle every time. Ten Parisian hotels, from Avenue Montaigne to Montparnasse, where you wake up to a view of the capital’s most famous landmark.
The Shangri-La Paris
Formerly the home of Prince Roland Bonaparte, perched on Chaillot Hill, this 19th-century mansion was transformed into a luxury hotel by architect Richard Martinet and interior designer Pierre-Yves Rochon, in a spirit of understated Orientalism: marble, gilding, and pale blue. Most of the 100 rooms, including the 120-square-meter Shangri-La Suite, offer a view of the Eiffel Tower. Two restaurants—including Chef Tony Xu’s Shang Palace (2 toques)—and the Chi Spa, housed in the former stables and featuring a 17-meter pool, round out the experience. The Sunday brunch at La Bauhinia (1 toque), served under a light-filled glass dome, remains a beloved ritual among neighborhood regulars.

Plaza Athénée Hotel
Located on Avenue Montaigne, the Plaza Athénée’s façade—adorned with 1,900 red geraniums and scarlet awnings—has made it one of Paris’s most photographed luxury hotels since 1913. The 208 rooms and suites are divided between the classic French style of the first six floors (Regency, Louis XV, and Louis XVI furnishings) and the Art Deco style of the 7th and 8th floors. For the best views, look to the Eiffel suites: the Eiffel Haute Couture Suite, and especially the Eiffel Signature Suite, which features a private 360° rooftop terrace and its own hammam. On the ground floor, the Cour Jardin—a green oasis transformed into an ice rink in winter—completes the scene, while the Dior Institut, the brand’s first spa, enhances the guest experience.

La Bourdonnais Hotel
Just a stone’s throw from the Eiffel Tower, this 53-room boutique hotel reopened in the spring of 2026 following a transformation designed by Oscar Lucien Ono (Maison Numéro 20), under the Inwood Hotels banner. A rarity on the Left Bank, six exceptional rooms offer a direct view of the monument, such as Room 602 on the 6th floor, themed around “animals,” or its neighbor, Room 603, designed in a “landscape” theme with terracotta tones. Varnished wood, deep lacquer finishes, and fabrics by Rubelli, Lelièvre, and Casamance come together to create a decor that blends Eastern and Western influences, inspired by 18th-century explorers. Upon arrival, guests check in while seated in an Oriental-inspired VIP lounge, before enjoying a drink at the Minuit Express bar.

Sax Paris Hotel
Located on Avenue de Saxe, this hotel offers a delightful surprise: you can see the Eiffel Tower from your bed only in certain rooms, thanks to a clever arrangement of mirrors. For a spectacular view, head to the Japanese restaurant Kinugawa on the 1st floor, or the 350 m² rooftop terrace—open on sunny days—which offers a panoramic view that also takes in the dome of Les Invalides and the rooftops of Paris. The 118 rooms and suites—ranging from 24 m² to 80 m² for the Signature Suite—include private terraces in some cases. In the garden, the outdoor pool and jacuzzi are heated to 29°C year-round; breakfast, served on the 7th floor, also offers a direct view of the Iron Lady.

Canopy by Hilton Paris Eiffel Tower
Facing the Trocadéro Gardens, this four-star hotel was designed by Jean-Philippe Nuel, whose design draws inspiration from Le Corbusier and the site’s industrial past. The 123 rooms—spacious by Parisian standards (averaging 27 m²)—include suites with views of the Eiffel Tower, while the duplexes feature a spiral staircase and a private rooftop terrace. But the star of the show remains Eylau Paris, the rooftop lounge on the 7th floor, with its green terrace and fire pit, where the tower sparkles every evening. On the ground floor, the restaurant L’Esprit Nouveau serves French cuisine under a glass roof. There’s no spa, but bicycles are available free of charge to explore the 16th arrondissement.

Its 995 rooms and suites—ranging from 22 m² to 102 m² for the largest suites—offer views stretching from the Arc de Triomphe to the Sacré-Cœur; some, facing the right direction, also frame the Eiffel Tower. On the 34th floor, 140 meters above ground, the Windo Skybar—the capital’s highest panoramic bar—offers the best vantage point for a cocktail at sunset. The Mayo restaurant, located in the lobby, serves dishes designed for sharing, and the hotel—connected to the Palais des Congrès—features 2,800 m² of meeting space.

Pullman Paris Montparnasse
Opened in 1974 as the Sheraton, this 32-story skyscraper—the flagship property of the Pullman brand—has unveiled a complete renovation after four years of construction. Its 957 panoramic rooms and suites—the most basic of which measure about 20 square meters—offer sweeping views of Paris as far as the eye can see, with connecting room options for families. The highlight of the stay is high above the city: the Skybar, at 115 meters, is considered the capital’s highest open-air rooftop, offering a 360° view of the city’s landmarks—with the Eiffel Tower taking center stage—while the VIP area and its “Table 6” frame the Iron Lady. You can also enjoy Italian cuisine at Fi’lia, one of five restaurants and bars, before unwinding at the 24-hour fitness center.

The 30 rooms and 7 suites—two of which feature terraces—offer views of the Eiffel Tower and the city’s rooftops. The spa in the basement, open to both guests and non-guests, features an indoor pool, a hammam, and a sauna (a rare luxury in Paris), while the gourmet restaurant Cléo (2 toques) showcases fresh, seasonal ingredients.

A veritable “little Versailles” on Avenue Kléber, this luxury hotel features 200 rooms, including 93 suites, which are among the most spacious in Paris. On the rooftop, L’Oiseau Blanc (3 toques), helmed by Chef David Bizet, offers a panoramic view of the Eiffel Tower beneath a glass canopy, in a setting that pays homage to the Nungesser and Coli biplane. The 1,800-square-meter spa, one of the largest in Parisian luxury hotels, features a 20-meter pool, while the Lili restaurant serves Cantonese cuisine. In the marble lobby, a suspended leaf sculpture appears to be falling from the ceiling, a silent signature of this century-old building.
