That's an interesting choice of words (presumably from a press release) - they don't say the terrace will actually have a view of said Tower

No, FS pool is in the basement, so no windows, but a lovely trompe l'oeil painting that makes you feel like you're outside.
I gather that the Shangri-La boast of 'closest terrace to Eiffel Tower' was aimed at FS, who say that panoramic views which include the Eiffel Tower are much more important than closeness, and they could be right, as who wants to walk out onto a terrace and be up close and personal with several tons of grey steel? Should be interesting to check it out once it opens, though. Lots of disinformation going on right now in Paris....

Agree that Paris will be very interesting soon.

i would imagine the chinese restaurant would be something to look forward to , - Petrus in hong kong is well regarded . - dont think bangkok shangri la is a benchmark for the group so i wouldnt use that as a gauge

Re-development of the hotel is scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2009, following vacant possession of the building with completion expected by the end of the first quarter of 2012.

New opening date..
.. new date is first weekend of decemeber.
I'm in Paris by that time
I tried to contact them -> emailadress given on their webpage (still no pics, they are not ready, of course) - NO RESPONSE.
In the French newspapers specialized on 'hotelerie', they are still surching for stuffmembers
Has anybody booked yet?? There seems to be a pre-opening team...(we already had some kind of discussion here about this..)
Of course, for the first night, I would not be able to get a room, but for the consecutive nights??
