Summer in Paris has a rhythm all its own. Mornings begin slowly over espresso and pastries, afternoons stretch into golden evenings along the Seine, and every sunset seems to linger just a little longer. At Shangri-La Paris, the season feels even more magical.
Once the private residence of Prince Roland Bonaparte, Shangri-La Paris blends historic grandeur with a quieter, more intimate luxury experience in the heart of the 16th arrondissement. During the summer months, the property’s outdoor spaces become some of its most memorable highlights, offering guests a peaceful retreat just moments from the city’s most iconic landmarks.
A Hidden Garden in the Heart of Paris
This year, Shangri-La Paris introduced an exclusive experience for in-house guests: breakfast served in the hotel’s lush private inner garden. Hidden away from the bustle of the city, the garden offers a tranquil setting to begin the day surrounded by greenery, elegant Parisian architecture, and a reimagined breakfast experience featuring refined sweet and savory specialties.
The atmosphere feels worlds away from the energy of central Paris. Sunlight filters through the trees, fresh pastries arrive tableside, and mornings unfold at a slower pace. It is one of the hotel’s most distinctive summer experiences and a reminder that even in one of the world’s most visited cities, quiet luxury still exists.
The Eiffel Tower, Right Outside Your Window
The hotel’s outdoor terraces are equally unforgettable during the warmer months. Nearly half of the property’s 100 rooms and suites face the Eiffel Tower, and many feature stunning private terraces overlooking the Paris skyline.
Whether enjoying a classic French breakfast in-room or sipping Champagne as the Eiffel Tower sparkles after dark, these spaces create the kind of moments travelers remember long after returning home. The experience feels deeply personal, offering a private vantage point over one of the world’s most iconic cities.

A Residential Feel in Paris’s 16th Arrondissement
While many luxury hotels in Paris feel grand and bustling, Shangri-La Paris offers something more residential and serene. Located in the elegant 16th arrondissement near Trocadéro, the property places guests close to the city’s most celebrated attractions while maintaining a sense of privacy and calm.
The historic architecture, sweeping staircases, and intimate scale create the feeling of staying in a refined Parisian home rather than a traditional hotel. Personalized service and thoughtfully designed spaces further enhance the experience, making the property especially appealing for travelers seeking a slower, more immersive stay in Paris.
Summer Dining and Parisian Evenings
As the sun sets over Paris, Shangri-La Paris invites guests to savor the season through unforgettable dining experiences that are as distinctive as the property itself.
Begin with dinner at Maison Roland, where classic Parisian bistro cuisine is served in a beautiful garden setting. Whether dining indoors or on the terrace overlooking the hotel’s lush private garden, it is an idyllic place to enjoy a leisurely summer evening.
For a meal surrounded by history, Les Salons du Prince offers an elegant setting within the property’s beautifully preserved historic salons, celebrating the grandeur of the former Bonaparte residence.
Guests can also experience Shang Palace, where haute Chinese gastronomy showcases refined Chinese cuisine and exceptional craftsmanship, offering a unique culinary journey in the heart of Paris.
After a day exploring museums, charming cafés, and the city’s iconic landmarks, returning to Shangri-La Paris feels like stepping into a peaceful retreat. Whether enjoying dinner in the garden, a nightcap on a private terrace, or watching the Eiffel Tower sparkle against the evening sky, every moment captures the timeless romance of a Parisian summer.
Summer is one of the most sought-after times to experience Paris, and Shangri-La Paris offers an elegant perspective of the city that feels both iconic and deeply personal.
