Paris Anniversary Escape — The Finest Five-Star Stays

A milestone anniversary calls for the city's grand palace hotels around the Golden Triangle and Place Vendôme, where the ceremony of service is part of the celebration. Book a suite with a salon for a private Champagne toast, reserve a tasting menu at a three-star restaurant, and consider a jeweler's appointment on Place Vendôme to mark the date. An evening at the Palais Garnier or a late visit to the Louvre adds the sense of occasion that makes the trip memorable years later.
