One of the nicest benefits of staying at the Vendome, is the ability to be strolling through the Tuileries in less than 5 minutes.

I love, love, love the Vendome. Stayed here last fall for a week on points and will stay here again in a heartbeat. And this was right in the midst of the construction. We were upgraded (as Gold) to a Parisien Suite which is really just a much larger corner room, not a suite, but it was great and more than big enough for us. The breakfast in the restaurant was excellent and the staff could not have been nicer or more friendly. And that is even before talking about the location, which again, couldn’t really be any better. I know different strokes and all that, but to me, this ia an awesome little hotel in an awesome location and is now my go-to hotel in Paris.

Renaissance Paris Vendome Hotel Celebrates a Triumphant Relaunch Following its Theatrical Renovation | Marriott News Center
Excerpt: "On the heels of the brand’s annual Global Day of Discovery, Renaissance Hotels today officially unveiled the Renaissance Paris Vendome Hotel following a multi-million dollar transformation of its guest rooms and public spaces. Reimagined by Didier Gomez Interior Design, the 97-room intimate hotel evokes its enviable location in the heart of the historic 1st arrondissement. Tucked away on a quiet street between the Tuileries Garden and the boutiques of Rue Saint-Honoré, Renaissance Paris Vendome Hotel is inspired by the fashion designers and jewellers that have had their salons in the neighbourhood. Contrasting eighteen century style with contemporary design, the hotel conveys softness and elegance reflective of today’s Parisian sense of style. The hotel’s transformation is anchored by stylish cocktail bar and restaurant Balagan ─ a joint venture between The Experimental Group and acclaimed Israeli Chef Assaf Granit, which opened last year. The hotel’s buzzy Le Studio lobby lounge will host locally-inspired events to showcase emerging talent in music, the arts, mixology and gastronomy, With the needs of the next-generation traveller in mind, keyless room entry is offered through the Marriot Mobile App. For those looking to relax and revitalise during their stay, there is a well-equipped fitness centre, pool and signature spa offering a sensory escape in the heart of the hotel. A newly created venue L’Atelier is the ultimate blank space for clients to create tailored events, from co-working hub to showroom, and private dinners to pop-up exhibitions. Rates for Renaissance Paris Vendome Hotel start from $450 per night. For further information and reservations please visit www.renhotels.com." |
Just spent 5 nights at this property on points. Had a great stay with the SO.
Pros:
All in all, we had a great stay, there were a few negatives but I'd expect them to get ironed out. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again but would also like to check out the Westin down the road. |
Thanks for the update. Much appreciated.
Cheers. |

And not having my room ready at 5 p.m. would have required more than just complimentary wine to satisfy me. Unless they had pre-upgraded you, there's no excuse that there wasn't a single room available for a platinum. The entire hotel couldn't have been platinums. |
I will be staying here 5 nights in July as a part of my honeymoon. I am platinum elite so trying to get an upgrade for us.
what is the best way to contact the hotel and let them know the request and that its my honeymoon? I can't find an email address anywhere. Any advice on how someone was able to do this in the past? |

I think you will have a difficult time getting an upgrade in July. Paris will be invaded by foreign tourists. You might be better off considering other properties and booking whichever one will give you a confirmed upgrade. Here are the emails for two other properties: Renaissance Paris République <[email protected]> Paris Marriott Opera Ambassador <[email protected]> Paris Marriott Opera Guest Relations Manager <[email protected]> |

I found an email for the Renaissance Paris Vendome on TripAdvisor:

For a lot of reasons, the Vendome is a great choice for a honeymoon. One of those reasons, however, is NOT room size. The basic rooms are small, really small. Status upgrades are not unusual, but status upgrades to rooms of a decent size are. I remember my first stay at the Vendome (years ago), I noticed, prior to checkin, that I had, supposedly, been upgraded. Nevertheless, the room I was checked in to was tiny. Went to the front desk to ask why I hadn't received the expected upgrade. Clerk looked at her computer to check my room number, then said: "But, monsieur your room is an upgrade."

Yes I've heard the room sizes are nothing to be excited about - but feel the location is worth it. What about the hotel and area is your reasoning for saying its a great choice for honeymooners?

There are so many other properties that you should proactively contact others to see what they could pre-confirm in terms of an upgrade. I wouldn't expect any complimentary upgrade in July in Paris, if we're being realistic.
