A magnificent, superior four-star establishment, the Banke Hotel has rooms befitting a five-star hotel. Located in one of the most commercial and luxurious areas of Paris, the Opéra district, and next to Boulevard Haussmann, the Banke Hotel also stands out for the refinement of its decor and the new concept that it brings to the Parisian hotel scene. One of the hotel’s attractions is the windowed dome of its impressive hall with decorations in post-Napoleon III style. Furthermore, an Eiffel-style staircase has been turned into the connecting thread for works from different cultures that appear one after the other as you ascend towards the upper floors. The classic architecture and eminently avant-garde design give way to a collection of original pieces of Egyptian art, Roman mosaics and sculptures from the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD, as well as a collection of Greek ceramics belonging to one of the most important private collections in Spain. The most ethnic, captivating and magical part of the hotel is marked by the exhibition of totems and figures from Papua New Guinea, Chinese portraits from the 18th and 19th centuries and a collection of Hindu and Buddhist figures from the 19th century. The Banke Hotel has two restaurants (one of which is gastronomic), a cocktail bar, a nightclub, a spa zone and its own art collection spread across all floors with pieces from great cultures of history: Egyptian, African, pre-Columbian, Roman and Buddhist, in addition to others.
GOURMET CLUB The Banke Hotel has two restaurants. First, the “Banke” restaurant serves up first-rate avant-garde Mediterranean cuisine with an abundance of Mediterranean textures, scents and flavours brought to the French capital under the steady guidance of the chef.

Destination information: Paris
Paris is a moveable feast. This is how Hemingway described the City of Lights. Magic, charm, glamour and romance are some of the epithets that capture the spirit of the city.
As the cradle of French culture, literature, the arts and music, and a city with an important, world-renowned gastronomic tradition, the capital of France is for many the most joyous European city with the warmest atmosphere.
Paris is also known as the city of hills. Montmartre, (the highest neighbourhood in Paris, which is much sought-after by bohemian writers and painters, is named after this hill), Montparnasse and Mont Valérien are three of them.
Monuments such as the Eiffel Tower – France’s most iconic landmark – built in the Champ de Mars on the first anniversary of the Revolution –, the Arc de Triomphe – the symbol of the Napoleonic Wars – , the Bastille, Notre-Dame Cathedral – the most visited Gothic cathedral by tourists who are also attracted by Victor Hugo’s novel which brought the Hunchback of Notre-Dame to life –, are some of the most important monuments that visitors simply must see during their visit to Paris.
Another of the symbols of the French capital is the church of the Sainte-Chapelle with its 15 stained-glass windows that stand 15 metres high. A real burst of colour.
Paris is the perfect place for long, pleasant walks, either along its broad avenues, such as the Champs Elysées and the Boulevard Raspail or across some of the 35 bridges that span the Seine.
During your wonderful stay in the city, you can visit the amazing Latin Quarter, the intellectual and student neighbourhood where the existentialists discovered jazz in its taverns, or let your senses be transported by the magnificent works of art at the Louvre Museum, such as Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo and Boticelli’s Graces, or the Musée d’Orsay, housed in a former railway station, devoted to art from 1848 and 1914; the Centre Georges Pompidou, with works by Picasso, Miró, Dalí, Matisse and Kandinsky; the Musée Rodin, which showcases the most important works by the brilliant sculptor, and the city’s history museum, the Musée Carnavalet. Also worth visiting is the Place de la Concorde, the biggest square in Paris, which is located by the Seine.
The Folies Bergère are the most famous place of entertainment in Paris, together with the Moulin Rouge. Their skilfully staged revues are still extremely popular. If you stroll down the Boulevard Saint Germain, you can stop off at the Café de Flore, the bar once frequented by Jean-Paul Sartre.
At the Père Lachaise Cemetery, one of the most visited burial grounds in Europe, you’ll find the tombs of Oscar Wilde, Honoré de Balzac and Paul Eluard. You can do a spot of shopping at the couture houses of Dior, Chanel and Vuitton on the Avenue Montaigne or visit one of Paris’s most popular department stores, Printemps.
