Respecting the architecture of The Peninsula’s original building, architect Henry Leung has restructured the space on the top floor of this palatial hotel in Paris to create five suites with private stone masonry staircases, all leading to private gardens sheltered from view and offering stunning views of the City of Light. Guests can entertain friends around a barbecue or treat themselves to a gourmet pause in the shade of a parasol. A unique proposal in the universe of Parisian luxury. The Peninsula Paris, 19 avenue Kléber, Paris 16 (01 58 12 28 88).
