1835
Le Meurice opened in 1835 and was named after its original owner Charles-Augustin Meurice. His vision was to create a hotel that would be particularly appealing to British people staying in Paris. The Meurice family had a hotel in Calais, just across from the English Channel, before becoming hoteliers in Paris.
1907
In 1898, the hotel’s new owner Arthur Million began a major expansion and renovation project. The builders took in a stray greyhound dog which was adopted by the hotel staff and went on to become our mascot and hotel emblem.
2007
In 2007, we were one of the first hotels to work with esteemed designer Philippe Starck. His new interior design elements were inspired by the creativity and playfulness of artist Salvador Dali who famously made Le Meurice his second home.
2013
Multiple Michelin-starred chef Alain Ducasse took on his role of overseeing all dining at Le Meurice in 2013.
