Westminster Hotel

Hotel Overview



History

Its name gives homage to the Duke of Westminster who liked to stay here in the middle of the 19th century, from whom the hotel took its coat of arms. Today, the present Duke still stays in the hotel. A noble sign for an institution where luxury agrees perfectly with discretion.

For over 150 years, the hotel has made its home in a street that seemed pre-destined: Rue de la Paix. Here, in fact, all seems calm and quiet.
