All it takes is one visit to TOO Hotel, where the magic unfolds in the heart of the 13th arrondissement and right at the very top.

Simplicity meets the extraordinary. A sanctuary above the city, which offers a rare escape—one where the sky feels within reach and the world below fades away. You get to pause for a moment. Reflect. Embrace. Restore.

Upon designing this extraordinary hotel, Laurent Taïeb describes his vision, one which was clear from day one: “Perched so high, you get the feeling Paris is all yours,” and truth be told, what is undeniably yours is the view and experience. Intimate, deeply personal, and unlike any other. Where else in the world could you find yourself suspended in time, gazing over the French capital, wrapped in the comfort of your own space?

From the moment you arrive, you’re enveloped in an atmosphere of effortless elegance. The design is striking, blending the contemporary with warmth, ensuring every detail invites relaxation. Every corner that is turned unveils a new glance of the ever-changing city, and seems to be a recurrent theme throughout.

The rooms, surrounded in floor-to-ceiling glass, amplify both light and perspective. By day, they reflect the endless sky; by night, they capture the shimmering glow of the city. As mentioned, every glance reveals a new angle, transforming even the simplest moments into something breathtakingly beautiful. Thoughtfully designed for comfort, each space features remote-controlled blinds and lighting, a cozy reading nook, a desk, an en suite bath or shower, a TV, a minibar, a safe, and WiFi—everything you would ever need for a perfect ‘home’ away from home.

And if you’re wondering where else you can immerse yourself in the views, the rooftop jacuzzi offers an experience like no other. Imagine sinking into warm, bubbling waters as the Parisian skyline unfolds around you.. Or perhaps a massage, heading to the spa for deep relaxation designed to melt away stress and leave you feeling renewed and at peace. To then finish off the day with an unforgettable culinary journey, either in the TOO Tactac sky bar 120 meters high or at TOO Restaurant, where Chef Benjamin Six has created refined menus that promise the flavours of winter, keeping you warm and fuzzy amidst the breeze.

When you stay at TOO, Paris is not just seen—it’s felt. It’s in the quiet luxury of your surroundings and the true beauty of its design. Paris is yours.
