Exclusive preview of sleek new designs and interiors; Hotel currently welcoming guests as Concorde Opera Paris
Joining the Hilton Hotels & Resorts portfolio in September 2014, the Concorde Opera Paris hotel has begun a significant $50 million restoration and enhancement programme ahead of its much anticipated re-launch as Hilton Paris Opera.
Providing a sneak preview of new designs and interiors, Hilton Paris Opera will offer travellers a modern blend of history and glamour, with sleek styling in celebration of the 125 year legacy of this classic Parisian hotel.
Rob Palleschi, global head, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, said, "We are delighted to be welcoming this legendary Parisian hotel to our Hilton Hotel & Resorts portfolio. At the heart of one of the world's most popular visitor destinations, Hilton Paris Opera will offer leisure and business travellers a unique experience through its contemporary upscale design and Hilton service for which we are renowned."
On completion of the refurbishment, the hotel will boast 268 rooms across five floors, including 29 Suites, 56 Executive Rooms, 164 Deluxe Rooms and 18 Guest Rooms – all of offering elegantly designed surroundings in a modern style.
Hilton Paris Opera will provide seven meeting spaces, accommodating up to 180 guests; with a total area of 5,435 square feet, including the 1,937 square foot Baccarat Reception Room which can hold both corporate and social events. An exclusive Executive Lounge will offer guests a convenient and social space to work or relax.
This vast renovation and enhancement programme, which is expected to fully complete in late Q1 2015, is being overseen by Parisian based ERTIM Architects in collaboration with Richmond International of London. The project is being completed in a number of stages to enable the hotel to continue to welcome guests throughout the period of the restoration.
On completion, Hilton Paris Opera will conjure images of Paris' Golden Age, with an entrance hall adorned with frescoes, Corinthian colonnades and imposing original balustrades. In addition, guests will be able to enjoy a new bar inspired by the great French fashion designer Christian Lacroix.
The hotel is located within close proximity to Saint-Lazare Railway Station and approximately 17 miles from Charles de Gaulle Airport; 14 miles from Paris Orly Airport; and five miles from the La Defense business district.
Central to the Right Bank district, Hilton Paris Opera is a stone's throw from the most famous shopping paradises in the capital, including rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, the Galeries Lafayette and Printemps Haussmann. It is also well-poised for tourists wanting to visit Parisian prime attractions such as the Opéra Garnier, the Champs-Elysées and the Rue de la Paix.
