Concierge’s Tip for Paris
CHIEF CONCIERGE OF HOTEL LANCASTER PARIS, ERIC LEMAIRE SHARES HIS RECOMMENDATION FOR A PERFECT EXPERIENCE IN PARIS
Paris remains part of the leading tourist destinations in the world. No matter the length of stay, it is highly recommended to make arrangements in advance to avoid any disappointment caused by the incapacity to visit THE exhibition of the moment or enjoy a fine dining experience in THE most wanted restaurant just because it has not been scheduled ahead of time. Our very first tip will be to contact your hotel’s concierge prior to arrival in order to schedule exclusive moments in the City of Lights. For those of our guests who still might prefer a last minute organization, no worries. The Lancaster’s concierge team awaits them; especially the four “Clefs d’Or” concierges who are ready to use their limitless contacts from all over the world to fulfill the guests’ every need before, during and even after their stay. This being said, our second tip will be: Prefer your hotel concierge’s recommendations! Our priority is to find the most appropriate arrangements corresponding to our guests’ expectations, preferring intimate local contacts and ensuring a real follow-up at any time. Each of our guest is unique to us, as well as his expectations and our mission is to provide them with a tailor made service.
