L’hotel Raphael is a 4 star hotel located at 17 avenue Kleber, in the 16arr of Paris. It is a few steps away from the Champs Elysées.
Few of its room have view on the eiffel tower or the arc de triomphe. Its terrace overlooks Paris skyline and can be privatized for wedding venues and ceremonies.

Amongst them “Hotel Chevalier”, a short film written and directed by Wes Anderson and released in 2007. The film stars Jason Schwartzman and Natalie Portman as former lovers who reunite in one of the hotel room, the 13-minute film acts as a prologue to Anderson’s 2007 feature “The Darjeeling Limited”. “Hotel Chevalier” became one of the most-discussed short films of the year, with much popular attention drawn in particular by Portman’s extended nude scene…
