Rosewood Hotels & Resorts has won the contract to manage one of the most prestigous hotels in the world, the legendary Hotel de Crillon in Paris, France.

Originally built in 1758, Hotel de Crillon enjoys an unrivalled position overlooking Place de la Concorde, one of the most enviable addresses in Paris.

Its walls are alive with history and the building has stood through the reign of two French Kings, the French Revolution, the rise and fall of the Napoleonic Empire and the birth of the League of Nations.

"Hotel de Crillon is more than just one of the world's most majestic hotels. It is a landmark that personifies the poise, elegance and spirit of Paris," said Radha Arora, president of Rosewood. "We strongly believe that the hotel aligns perfectly with Rosewood's core ethos of A Sense of Place and we look forward to drawing upon our expertise and experience to help write the next chapter in the history of this iconic property."

Hotel de Crillon is currently closed while it undergoes a two-year restoration and will reopen in 2015.

The current restoration will add a contemporary polish to the hotel while remaining respectful of its traditions and faithful to its character.

The architect is Richard Martinet and three Paris-based decorators, Chahan Minassian, Cyril Vergniol and Tristan Auer, overseen by Lebanese artistic director, Aline d'Amman, will be creating the new interiors.
