The name Ritz has been synonymous with luxury since that day when, more than a century ago, the hotel's illustrious founder, César Ritz, opened the doors. On the Place Vendome, The Ritz is central to the city's great sights and includes special entities all its own: L'Espadon, for example, the restaurant with a wine cellar of more than 40,000 bottles. Or, the Ecole Ritz Escoffier, the ultimate cooking school in Paris. And the Ritz Health Club presents an oasis in the heart of Paris: the city's largest indoor club to offer a pool, spa treatments, fitness facilities and a real 6 hole golf course.
