Beautiful pictures and extensive review. I haven't stayed in many Shangri-La properties, but it looks like Shangri-La Paris is a contender for the best in the brand. I'm really impressed by how booming and extensive the luxury hotel market is in Paris. Several new (or extensively renovated) properties have surfaced in recent years. The stunning Eiffel Tower views would likely be the only reason for me to consider Shangri-La over the Ritz, FSGV, or Crillon.
Just one question about one of your comments. What did you mean by the bathroom mirror TV not having any programs?
The TV could be switched on but had no signal. Whatever I tried the mirror was black in different shades. I could have asked to fix it but it wasnīt really important for me.
The view is not the only pro for Shangri-La, itīs more about value. FSGV was 1590 for a Premium room (JS in my eyes), 2250 for a Four Seasons Suite (no advanced purchased price available). So price for something roughly compareable would have been nearly triple, at least double. Even cheapest room at FS (which is unacceptable for me)was 1200 €. Similar at Ritz or Crillon. Personally I doubt it would have been worth the extra-money. Regarding FS for excample Iīm not so convinced rooms/ suites are superior, on some pictures it looks very old fashioned.
