Among the improvements are 78 rooms, 36 suites, 10 Signature Suites, a gastronomic restaurant, brasserie, bar, and a spa, hair salon, and barber shop. With a history dating to the 18th century, the property was commissioned by King Louis XV in 1758 and later served as the personal residence of the family of the Count of Crillon before becoming a palace hotel in 1909.
