Traveling the world is great. But, surfing the net late at night looking for the right hotel isn\u2019t. Save yourself a headache, and read our hotel guides instead.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Choosing the right hotel can be hard work. Especially in Paris.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After all, it\u2019s the most popular destination in the world, and there\u2019s more than enough hotels to house the millions of visitors who flock to it every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can make it easier on yourself by narrowing your options, and only picking the cream of the crop, but even then, you\u2019re left with a bevy of excellent properties to choose from<\/strong>. That\u2019s where we come in.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re pitting two of the most popula<\/strong>r<\/strong> palace hotels in our collection, the Four Seasons George V and the Ritz Paris, in a one to one face off to help you decide which is best for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly priced and located in two of the best spots in the city separating the two is no cakewalk. To help you choose, we\u2019re comparing the general atmosphere of the hotels, their locations, and three popular room categories. Happy reading\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most glamorous places to see and be seen in Paris since 1928, the Four Seasons Hotel George V\u2019s location on the Golden Triangle, and its stellar reputation make it an unmissable stop for the luxury traveler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you like staying in hotels that are larger than life, and buzzing with people on your travels, it\u2019s the place to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lobby is a hive of activity where guests mingle with the passers-by who pop in to ogle at the hotel\u2019s iconic floral displays. The restaurants are all Michelin starred and the city\u2019s upper crust swear by the hotel\u2019s bar for after work drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, once you go up to the rooms and guest only areas, it\u2019s all peace and quiet and the Four Seasons makes it easy to forget that there\u2019s a thriving city beyond its walls<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A legend. No other hotel comes with a history as rich as the Ritz Paris<\/a>, and following a four-year-long renovation; it\u2019s never looked better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of the period elements of the hotel were preserved, (including quirky touches like the gold swan taps) and its \u201csoul\u201d is intact. But, the two glass conservatories with retractable roofs, the elongated windows in the entrance gallery along with the addition of an amazing shopping gallery make it fresh for the 21st century traveler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s easy to feel starstruck here. This is one of the most iconic hotels in the world, and it\u2019s got the guest profile to match. But where it excels, is in making every guest feel comfortable within its walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll hardly find a better level of service in the city. Fast, efficient and hitting the perfect balance between formality and friendliness, it\u2019s close to perfect. It\u2019s easy to find a pocket of privacy within the numerous alcoves and secret gardens dotting the hotel\u2019s common area. There\u2019s nothing else quite like it, and staying here is a world-class experience you should try at least once. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
