Regions

Premier Place List spreads ranked hotels across Île-de-France, the Riviera, Lyon, Bordeaux wine country, and Normandy evening addresses — scroll the homepage for paired photography.

Île-de-France

Ritz, Peninsula, and Costes cover three Paris scales — palace, modern palace, and boutique icon — for comparing capital stays without sharing Elite Club’s journal layout.

South and southeast

Martinez and Byblos Saint-Tropez bring Croisette and harbour glamour into the same ranked list — distinct from our evening casino rows below.

Evening ranks 18+

Deauville, Enghien grand hotels, and Barrière lake-front addresses appear as separate evening indices with casino disclaimers — informational for adults only.

Combining regions

Many guests pair Paris ranks with a Riviera or Lyon week — scroll the ranked stage for photography paired to each property before you map train or flight connections through licensed operators.
