The hotel will open its first European hotel in near the end of 2013 near the Arc de Triumph. The Peninsula Group are purposely keeping the exact date vague, a wide move considering the tendency of hotels to have what we like to call 'flexible' launch dates.  TLTB loves the attention to detail lavished on every new peninsula offering so we just know this one will be a cut above the crowd too. The hotel will be in a magnificent historic building, formerly The Hotel Majestic, on Avenue Kleber on the prestigious Champs Elysées. The Parisian hotel scene had had a luxury shake up in the last two years, and the arrival of the Peninsula will stir the pot a little more.  Oo la la.
