The only thing better than a vacay in Paris? Waking up to a view of one of the world’s most iconic landmarks—we’re talking about the Eiffel Tower of course. Yes it’s a total splurge, and it’s probably a once in a lifetime sort of thing but there really is no better pic for the 'gram than the iron lady herself, captured from your very own Parisian window.
From ultra luxe hotel vibes to cosy escapes in the heart of the city, be prepared to take in that postcard-perfect view from your own private retreat. And with some rumoured to be home to Emily In Paris Season 4 filming, you may even spot a Parisian celeb or two at the check in desk.
Here are the best hotels and Airbnbs in Paris with Eiffel Tower views.

If you’ve ever wanted to stay at a real-life palace, the Shangri-La in Paris is where you’ll want to be. With its wedding-cake look façade and enviable views of the Eiffel Tower and River Seine, this hotel is a destination in its own right. The former resident of a prince, you’d be forgiven for thinking the function rooms and restored grand staircase have been transported straight from Versailles. Each of the rooms are individually decorated in royal colours of pale blue, cream and soft gold with subtly embossed wallpaper, orchids and the best rooms even have balconies overlooking an immaculate garden—you will literally feel like you’ve stepped onto the scene of a movie set. The hotel is home to the only Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant in Paris which seamlessly blends European grandeur with traditional Asian hospitality. The hotel’s spa, Chi, is a true Parisian hideaway with a 17-metre pool, spectacular green terrace and a holistic and personal treatment approach. You can’t help but feel good from the moment you set foot in this treasured space.

A hop and a skip from the Eiffel Tower, Champ-de-Mars and the Esplanade des Invalides, this 4-star boutique hotel is the ideal place to base yourself in Paris, with views of both the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral. Rooms are stylishly decorated with both a refined, yet timeless feel featuring modern furniture and pieces of classically themed art. The Walt’s internal garden is the treasure chest of this hotel for when a moment of relaxation simply can’t be denied. Surrounded by greenery and sheltered from the hustle and bustle of the city, you can sit back with a coffee and French breakfast full of croissants, cheese and bread, or choose to spend your afternoon here reading a book or journaling your days spent exploring Paris. Don’t be surprised if you witness a dog or two—the good folk here allow pets to stay. How French.

All 16 apartments, ranging from one to four bedrooms in size are fully equipped for whatever you may need during your stay. Not all apartments feature a view of the iron lady, so be sure to check which one is your preferred option before booking. Located in the 7th arrondissement, you’ll feel like a local Parisian strolling the beautiful streets full of museums, sculptural gardens, vibrant cafes and gourmet shops—you’ll find plenty of goodies to fill up your bags to bring home.
Brach Paris

It’s true what they say—Brach isn’t just a hotel. It’s a unique experience where people from all walks of life meet to celebrate art, culture and the great city of Paris. This distinct, urban escape is influenced by styles from Africa, Asia and South America, and invites you to explore everything the luxury design hotel has to offer. There are stunning views of the Eiffel Tower alongside a rooftop sundeck where drinks are served by staff donned in Le Coq Sportif—it’s quite possibly the coolest spot in Paris. Taking up the upper floors of a former mail sorting office, each room is decorated with raw, natural materials set against marble and antique objects—some rooms offer views of the tower, whilst others opt for a luxe jacuzzi (yes please!) The spa by Clarins offers unparalleled relaxation with meditative-like facials and earth-shatteringly good massages that must be experienced. Whilst we can never get enough of a good spa, our favourite part of the hotel might just be the pastry shop, run by chef Yann Brys known for his traditional desserts and mouth watering signature creations.

Airbnbs With Eiffel Tower View
Penthouse Loft
Image credit: Airbnb
There is so much to love about this crazy, colourful penthouse loft, but there is without doubt one standout feature—a massive bathtub with views over the Eiffel Tower. That’s right, you can soak your worries away with a champagne in hand looking out over the twinkling lights of the tower’s nightly performance. We really can’t think of a more romantic way to lap up that view. The spacious apartment is on the 12th floor of a building in the neighbourhood of Grenelle, close to the tower and other major attractions like the Champ de Mars and Emile Anthoine Stadium. The loft has plenty of room with a massive bed and pops of colour set against a minimalist interior. Whilst it’s not on the lower end of the price list, for the views and size, we reckon this one’s a pretty good deal.
Chambertin

The Chambertin could be the apartment to end all apartments. Located in the picturesque left-bank, on a tree-lined street, this fully renovated airbnb oozes Parisian charm with its classic architecture, balcony with Eiffel tower views and sophisticated French interior design. Within walking distance to some of the best museums and galleries, top-tiered restaurants and famed Rue Cler food markets, it would be rude not to take a stroll and pick up some delicious pastries and eats to whip up in your fully stocked kitchen. For next-level wow factor, impress your significant other by filling up the claw-footed bathtub and indulging in a front row view of the sparkling lights of the Eiffel Tower.
The Bergerac

The Bergerac is everything a Parisian apartment could possibly be: elegant, refined and breathtakingly beautiful. There’s no doubt this one’s a little boujee, but if you can shack up as a group, it’s totally worth the treat. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a modern kitchen, it’s superb for a family holiday or group of friends. Situated in one of the most upscale neighbourhoods in Paris, you’ll have no trouble getting around to some of the city’s best restaurants, bakeries and major sights including the tower itself.
