The Peninsula Paris welcomes guests to celebrate a magical holiday season at its historic Avenue Kleber Palace

With a splendid programme of festive celebrations, sumptuous meals and magnificent gifts to share, the iconic heritage hotel excitedly greets new and returning members of its "Peninsula family".

For nearly a decade, The Peninsula Paris has served as a cherished “holiday home” to guests dur-ing the Christmas and New Year season. At this special time of year, travellers from around the world gather at the legendary palace hotel to take part in an array of festive meals, joyful family activities, and opportunities to create cherished memories together.

Family Delights

On three consecutive Sundays – 3,10, and 17 December – Festive Children’s Brunch will be held in Le Lobby restaurant, in partnership with celebrated children’s fashion brand Tartine et Chocolat. The brunches will feature delicious sweet and savoury holiday treats; a special kids’ entertainment area with a variety of guided creative activities; and the chance for parents to enjoy a craft cocktail or glass of champagne.

Lavish, family-friendly Christmas Day and New Year’s Day Brunches, configured to fill the entire first floor of the hotel, will also be hosted by Le Lobby. Abundant serving stations will offer an array of delectable holiday dishes and desserts – including Cantonese preparations from LiLi; sublime creations by award-winning Pastry Chef Anne Coruble; and children’s favourites like cotton candy, marshmallow bears, and a chocolate fountain.

Throughout the month of December, the Festive Afternoon Tea, held daily at Le Lobby, offers families another opportunity to enjoy special Christmas treats together. Against the backdrop of the hotel’s enormous, elaborately decorated Christmas tree, guests can savour a menu of light bites that spotlight the flavours of the season.

Two Michelin-Star Dining at L'Oiseau Blanc

Perched atop The Peninsula Paris, with breath-taking views over the city and the two-Michelin-starred French cuisine of Executive Chef David Bizet, L'Oiseau Blanc provides a singular venue for holiday dining. Through the month of December, Chef Bizet and his team will honour one of the season’s most rarefied ingredients with a decadent, five-course Black Truffle Menu. Available for lunch and dinner, the menu highlights include truffle carpaccio with fermented black tea and smoked egg, and truffle-infused turbot served in chestnut leaf with lacquered ginger.
