Louis Vuitton: Luxury Hotel

Extending its reach from one runway to another, French fashion house Louis Vuitton has just revealed its plans to open its very first luxury hotel in Paris in 2026 – and we are already predicting a flock of well-to-do, fashion-loving travellers.

Set to open in 2026, the LV Hotel will be located at 103 Champs-Elysées, right next door to the largest Louis Vuitton store in the world, which means hotel guests will quite literally be able to shop until they drop.

Spread across 6000 square metres, the beautiful Art Deco building will be covered by a giant LV monogram trunk for the duration of the build.

According to Luxus Plus, “It’s also a return to its roots for the building, which was already a hotel when it opened in 1898. It was here that spy Mata Hari was arrested in her room and shot for high treason. In 1919, a bank was set up before the Wehrmacht took possession of the premises under Nazi occupation. After the Second World War, the HSBC bank set up its headquarters here.”

While further details are yet to be released, it’s more than fair to say that guests can look forward to every conceivable luxury, delivered in the most fashionable setting possible.

The hotel will be the brand’s third foray into the hospitality industry. Previously LV opened a temporary experience-based concept store-cum-gallery-cum-cafe, ‘LV Dream’, complete with an exhibition space, shop, restaurant and chocolate shop. The brand also opened a restaurant in Sant Tropez’s iconic White 1921 Hotel in 2023.
