Since opening its doors in 1913, the Hôtel Plaza Athénée has stood as a symbol of Parisian elegance and refinement. Perfectly located on the prestigious Avenue Montaigne—between the Seine and the Eiffel Tower—this legendary palace is inextricably linked with the history of haute couture, particularly through its close ties to the House of Christian Dior, which sits just steps away. As part of the prestigious Dorchester Collection, the hotel embodies the essence of French art de vivre through its listed Haussmann-style architecture, timeless interior design, and unwavering dedication to excellence.

 

With 154 rooms and 54 suites, each designed as a unique Parisian apartment, the Plaza Athénée offers its guests an immersive and luxurious experience. The lower floors are adorned with classic French decor—ornate moldings, marble fireplaces, and antique furnishings—while the upper floors, recently redesigned in a refined Art Deco style, feature clean lines, lighter tones, and geometric accents. The crown jewel of the hotel, the Royal Suite, spans 450 m² and offers breathtaking views of the Eiffel Tower and the hotel’s serene Cour Jardin. Every detail reflects the highest standards of craftsmanship, from custom-designed furniture to handpicked materials and thoughtful lighting.

 

In keeping with its discreet approach to innovation and commitment to guest wellbeing, the Plaza Athénée turned to TOTO to elevate the comfort and hygiene of its bathrooms. The choice naturally fell to the brand’s most advanced models, where technology meets minimalist design.

 

The Royal Suite is equipped with the WASHLET® Neorest WX2, TOTO’s ultimate expression of luxury and innovation. This flagship model features ACTILIGHT self-cleaning technology, the powerful TORNADO FLUSH system, and EWATER+ for automatic hygiene, all housed in a sleek, sculptural silhouette awarded both the iF Design and Red Dot Design Awards in 2023.

 

The other suites are fitted with the WASHLET® RW auto-flush, a refined model that combines a timeless round design with signature TOTO comfort features: heated seat, warm water bidet, air deodorizer, automatic cleaning with EWATER+, and hands-free auto flush.

 

Through this collaboration with TOTO, the Hôtel Plaza Athénée reaffirms its ambition: to deliver an uncompromising guest experience, where every detail—seen or unseen—contributes to a sense of absolute excellence.
