Paris is art, and art adores Paris. This week, Art Basel returned to the City of Lights, drawing over 40,000 enthusiasts and collectors alike. From October 18-22, Art Basel Paris hosted a curated showcase of masterpieces presented by 195 premier galleries from 34 nations. Held at the Grand Palais Éphémère—an elegant stand-in while the historic Grand Palais undergoes its renaissance.
For the perfect Art Basel experience in Paris, The Peninsula Paris is an elegant sanctuary in the famed 16th arrondissement. This historic Beaux-Arts luxury hotel not only provides captivating views of the Eiffel Tower and the city’s timeless skyline but also enchants guests with culinary delights in its acclaimed restaurants. But what truly makes The Peninsula Paris a beloved haven is its celebrated spa and wellness offerings, which expand through its new “Life Lived Best” initiative—a comprehensive program promoting physical, mental, and nutritional balance, ideal for art fair-goers seeking calm amid the buzz. Through its Art in Resonance program, The Peninsula is deeply committed to the arts, not only as an exhibition space but as a true innovator and cultural steward, enriching the Parisian art scene in a way that few places can.
We have been inspired to combine the impressions of the exhibitions with the views from the Peninsula.
