We have already reviewed the best hotel club lounges in Paris. The best clubs, lounges, and bars in Paris are outlined below.
1. The Bulgari Bar
The perfect place to meet, the Bulgari Bar embodies the expansiveness and elegance of the Maison. Black granite floors, high-gloss ceilings, and brass accents conjure contemporary sophistication and savoir-faire, with lacquered walls and vintage-style mirrors completing the theatricality of the space.
Bulgari Bars always have a fantastic atmosphere, the most stylish guests imaginable, and incredible food. We loved the bar at the Bulgari Milan which we reviewed last year. All the best Bulgari hotels have a similarly stylish setting and ambiance, which seems to step straight off the pages of Vogue.
The Bulgari Bar exudes understated elegance and refinement with a sleek and contemporary design that reflects the Bulgari brand’s commitment to luxury and sophistication. The bar’s interior features plush seating, polished marble surfaces, and warm lighting, creating a stylish and inviting ambiance perfect for intimate gatherings and special occasions.
The cocktails at The Bulgari Bar are exceptional, a proper mixologist malarky with lots of cut fruits and berries thrown in. The flavors are strong and satisfying to your taste buds. In addition to its exceptional cocktail offerings, The Bulgari Bar also serves a selection of light bites and appetizers, perfect for enjoying alongside your drinks.
Remember to book any luxury hotels in Paris, including the best Marriott hotels in Paris (yes, the Bulgari is part of Marriott) via our luxury travel concierge for extra free benefits. You also get all your usual Marriott Bonvoy points and perks when you book via our concierge.

The bar here is excellent here and is called Le Bar. Le Bar is an intimate space with a dark wood-paneled bar and walls. The views are out to the street. This lounge is small, with muted lighting, and would be ideal for a Valentine’s Day cocktail but not a night out on the town with friends, as it is a peaceful and luxurious space. There’s no dancing or wild nightlife here, just a warm, cozy, luxurious slipper like feel.

The Hôtel du Collectionneur Arc de Triomphe Paris enjoys an exceptional location in the heart of the 8th arrondissement, facing the Parc Monceau and is a short walk from the Champs-Elysées and the Rue du Faubourg St Honoré. Inspired by transatlantic liners, its style invites you to rediscover the splendor of the 30s in an elegant and distinguished atmosphere.
The rooftop bar here is utterly romantic, with low-slung sofa seats with thick cushions set in twos around candle-lit tables. This is the perfect alfresco lounge for a romantic evening, and the views of the Eiffel Tower are phenomenal.
Guests in their 88 Executive Rooms and 59 suites enjoy free access to their Executive Lounge. Here, there is space to relax, a large-screen television, and a decked terrace where you can enjoy breakfast as well as snacks and refreshments throughout the day.
Complimentary snacks, drinks, and alcohol are always available. The staff are super nice and offer a varying array of bites in the evening. One night, they have a sushi dinner, and usually, the lounge food is enough to fill you up. The hotel is about a 20-30 minute walk to the Eiffel Tower and only a couple of blocks from the Champs-Elysees, so it is a great choice and, in our opinion, offers the second-best club lounge in Paris.
9. Canopy by Hilton Paris Trocadero
Another rooftop bar with Eifel Tower views can be found at the Canopy by Hilton Paris Trocadero which is one of the best Hilton hotels in Paris.
We love this brand of Hilton because many Canopy hotels have fantastic rooftop terraces, and the Paris Canopy has a superb rooftop terrace with views of the Eifel Tower. We also believe that Canopy by Hilton Paris Trocadero, France, is one of the best Canopy by Hilton hotels in the world.
This Canopy Hotel is not perfectly located, but the location is good enough and easily accessible by public transport. The 123-room property draws inspiration from Trocadero’s rich history and incorporates thoughtful touches from the industrial past of the 1930s building.

10. InterContinental Paris Le Grand Club Lounge
If you book a standard room at the InterContinental in Paris, which is one of our partner hotels, via our concierge, you will get club lounge access at this hotel absolutely free. This has got to be one of the best hotel deals in Paris, and this club lounge is one of the best InterContinental club lounges in the world.
InterContinental Paris Le Grand Club lounge is the best in Paris, followed by Hôtel du Collectionneur Arc de Triomphe lounge, Hilton Paris Opera executive lounge, and Renaissance Paris La Defense lounge, which is probably the worst. The last time I was in the InterContinental Paris club lounge, we had booked a wonderful rooftop room in the eaves of this historic hotel.
The view was out over the rooftops of Paris, and it couldn’t have been more romantic. The InterContinental Le Grand is conveniently located in the Opera district, very close to the Place Concorde, Rue Faubourg Honore, Champs Elysees, etc. The hotel has been beautifully refurbished and remodeled and is one of Paris’s most beautiful and luxurious hotels.
If you book a classic room at this hotel, book via our concierge, and you will get a complimentary upgrade to a superior room (subject to availability and confirmed at the time of booking). If you are a premium member of the InterContinental loyalty scheme, the IHG Rewards Club, you will get all your usual points, status benefits, and perks on this booking.
This lounge is a charming space on two levels at the top of the hotel. The upper level has great views of the Opera, and the whole lounge offers free internet.
Start your day with a delicious breakfast with eggs made to order, juices, and a glass of champagne (Moet) if you like. Breakfast is available every day from 7:30 am – 10:00 pm. Enjoy their cold buffet at midday, with high-end items like foie gras, smoked salmon, hams and cheeses, and free-flowing Nicolas Feuillatte champagne.
Indulge in their delicious pastries at tea time and, at the end of the day, enjoy a light supper in the lounge, which is open until 10:00 pm. Expect excellent service with a generous delivery of unlimited champagne and wine to drink each night, along with beer, spirits, and soft drinks. Canapes included oysters, sushi, paté, and lots of cheese.
People tend to be friendly in this lounge, and because of its location in Paris, there are usually a fair number of British and American guests who use the lounge.
The InterContinental Club lounge is the best hotel lounge in Paris, but if you are looking for nightlife and dancing your toes off, pick one of the other options in this listing, as this lounge is sedate, relaxing, and delightful rather than happening!
