Crowne Plaza Paris Republique

This stately four-story building sits directly across from Place de la Republique, and its large inventory of rooms and meeting space and location near a major metro station keep it bustling with both business and leisure travelers. Upscale wood paneling is prevalent throughout the lobby and behind the backlit registration desk. A beautiful staircase with brass and wrought-iron railings rests just across from the desk and leads to the mezzanine level, where polished marble floors await. A massive interior courtyard with landscaping and potted palms offers a quiet place for relaxing with covered tables. The bar has covered outdoor seating facing the public square, making it a perfect place for people-watching. Inside, the lounge area is classy and intimate, with soft lighting and many seating options.
