Tea Time — The Experience+

Salon Proust is the Ritz’s classic “literary salon” setting—armchairs, books, wood paneling—designed for a slow, elegant afternoon of sweets, rare teas and hot chocolate.

This is a French-style goûter (pastries), not a sandwich-heavy English high tea.

Booking & Price+

Le Royal: from €105 per person — French-style teatime with pastries, plus Champagne (or a non-alcoholic sparkling wine / non-alcoholic cocktail).

Hours & Best Time to Go+

Every day: 13:00 – 19:00

For the calmest vibe: go early (around 13:00–14:00) on weekdays. Weekends are more “occasion” energy.

Dress Code & Atmosphere+

Place Vendôme elegance—refined, quiet-luxury, camera-friendly without being loud.

Style tip: “polished smart” always works here (think tailored coat, sleek knit, subtle jewelry).

Bonne journée / TLC Paris Tip+
  • Make it a “Vendôme afternoon”: tea time, then a slow walk past Place Vendôme maisons + Rue Saint-Honoré.
  • If you want the most relaxed service, pick a weekday slot and book ahead.
  • TLC Paris Concierge can pair Salon Proust with nearby boutiques, a museum stop, and a post-tea cocktail plan.
