The history of the hotel

The hotel has a very interesting history as the Duke of Westminster stayed here a lot in the 19th century, and the hotel was named in honor of his patronage. The hotel uses his coat of arms as the coat of arms for the hotel. There have been many distinguished guests in the past, and many distinguished guests now, but the hotel assures discretion about who these are.

The discrete hotel

The hotel has always prided itself on being an intimate and discrete hotel, and this is why it has so many loyal patrons who come time and time again to Hotel Westminster Paris. We were told that an American man used to come as a child in the 1950’s with his grandparents, and he still comes to this day.
