What's the "Palace" distinction ?

The reform of hotel classification implemented by the French law of July 22, 2009 focused on two main areas: the modernization of classification criteria and the overhaul of the procedure for obtaining "new stars". Among the novelties introduced by this reform : the creation of the “5 stars” category. A challenge for image, attractiveness and influence, driving the entire offer, it is now the figurehead of the best in French hospitality.

​Exceptional location, particular history, aesthetic and/or heritage interest, tailor-made service ... Here are some of the required criteria for 5-star hotels wishing to obtain "Palace" status. This distinction, is awarded by the Palace Commission of Atout France, and chaired by Jean-Yves Le Drian, Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs.

​There are now 31 establishments holding the Palace distinction in France.
