The Restaurant at Hotel Plaza Athenee

"The world's young, rich, and titled check in here to check out one another, disporting themselves in one of the city's hottest bars and two of its highly rated restaurants—the gorgeous Art Deco Relais Plaza (Yves Saint-Laurent is a regular) and Alain Ducasse, where an extravagant breakfast is also served (the pastry basket is so copious it requires its own printed guide)"

"Assorted upscale dining options include superstar Alain Ducasse's first haute-vegetarian restaurant—a three-star contender for best restaurant in Paris—which was given a glittering new look that reflects the hotel's haute-couture grandeur"

"Super-chef Alain Ducasse is in charge of the fabulous restaurant"

"The Christian Dior-appointed spa, five restaurants overseen by Michelin-star chef Alain Ducasse, and haute couture-inspired event spaces set this Avenue Montaigne property apart from the pack"

"The restaurant by Alain Ducasse is wonderfully romantic, while Le Bar du Plaza is now the hottest address in Paris for cocktails"

"Other perks: Alain Ducasse runs his signature three-star restaurant from the Athenée, and the hotel bar is a real swank Fashion Week pleaser"

"There's always a star staying there, hosts the Alain Ducasse restaurant"

"The restaurant’s seasonal menu focuses on fish and vegetables"

"Expect opulent interiors, a Dior spa and an Alain Ducasse Michelin-starred restaurant"

"The verdant courtyard and geranium planted exterior remain, but guest rooms by Marie-José Pommereau feature warm tones and sumptuous materials like damask and embroidery, and the Michelin three-star Alain Ducasse restaurant has a glittering ’60s-inspired interior by Patrick Jouin and Sanjit Manku that features banquettes in stainless “domes” and solid oak tables"
