Hôtel Régina, hotel in Paris, France
The Hôtel Régina is a five-star hotel in Paris's 1st arrondissement, located on Place des Pyramides directly across from the Louvre Museum. Built around 1900, it contains 99 rooms and suites with soundproof windows, modern amenities, and classic decor, with some offering views of the Louvre or Tuileries Gardens.
Built between 1898 and 1900 by Léonard Tauber and Constant Baverez, the hotel opened for the 1900 World's Fair in Paris. Major renovations in 2014 and 2015 preserved its Belle Époque character while adding contemporary comforts and systems.
The hotel takes its name from Queen Victoria, reflecting the friendship between France and Britain at that time. This tribute appears in the decor of the English Bar, where guests can feel echoes of Victorian elegance in the heart of Paris.
The location offers walking distance to the Louvre, Tuileries Gardens, and surrounding shops and cafes. Metro stations nearby provide quick access to other parts of the city for those who prefer not to walk.
The hotel has served as a filming location for major movies since 1980, appearing in productions like La Femme Nikita and The Bourne Identity. This presence in cinema has made it recognizable to travelers who notice these connections during their stay.
