Tucked away on the same floor as the Historic Salons, this previously undisclosed space opens to the public for the first time, welcoming four to six guests per evening around a single table in one of Hôtel de Crillon's most intimate settings.

In the months ahead, Chef Alan Taudon will continue to shape the future of gastronomy at Hôtel de Crillon with an innovative new culinary concept to be revealed in 2027.
