Provinces Opéra : Hotel stays for Paris 2023

A trip to Paris in 2023 would be great, but being in the heart of the capital for after-match celebrations would be even better! When you're looking for a hotel in Paris to attend the Rugby World Cup, our 3-star hotel Provinces Opéra has plenty to offer. Ideally located in the city centre and close to the Grands Boulevards, it provides an exceptional setting for those in search of a cosy place to stay. The pros know how crucial it is to relax between games !  
You can come with your entire team, as there are 113 air-conditioned rooms available. All of the rooms are decorated in a contemporary designer style and each one is ensuite, with a bath, toilet and hairdryer. Everything you'll need to take care of your mane just like Sébastien Chabal...
Fans of the oval ball are often full of personality, as is our 3-star Hotel Provinces Opéra which was originally the hunting lodge of Henri IV.
It later became the convent of the "Filles de Dieu" before being converted into a hotel in 1850. Today, this rich past blends seamlessly with  contemporary touches as illustrated by the bar, dating back to 1925, and the contemporary artwork on display.
You will be just 25 minutes away from the Stade de France by metro, ready to rock the stands at the Rugby World Cup semi-final!

Villa Modigliani :  3-star hotel stays for the Rugby World Cup

After the excitement of a tough match, the intensity of the scrums, dodging and dashing for a try, you deserve some down time. But which hotel in Paris can offer you a calm and relaxing break, away from the hustle and bustle of the City of Light ? Villa Modigliani with its interior patio area and tree-lined garden, set back from the busy streets, is a great place to unwind. Guests can continue to enjoy views of the garden from their bedroom windows, most of which overlook it.

After spending some time chilling, you will want to get back on the move. The surrounding streets and alleys are full of museums and theatres to explore as well as some iconic promenades.  The Tour Montparnasse and its panoramic observatory are also within easy reach of the hotel.

Close to all amenities, Villa Modigliani is also the perfect base for attending a big game, like the Rugby World Cup final, for instance !

Le Royal in Nice : Your 3-star hotel stay for enjoying the Rugby World Cup to the full

Rugby fever will be sweeping the country and the French Riviera will certainly be hotting up. As a host city, Nice will stage several of the 2023 Rugby 
World Cup matches. Looking for a hotel? Le Royal is a great choice. 

Facing the sea, along La Promenade des Anglais, the 3-star Hotel Le Royal is an ideal location for your trip to see the rugby.  In the heart of the historic centre, this former palace, built in 1905, epitomises the prestige of the Belle Époque. This chic atmosphere is also reflected in the district's name: "Le Carré d'Or" meaning "golden square".

You will appreciate the exquisite decor including period mouldings and chandeliers which blend harmoniously with the contemporary artwork... And as we're talking about beautiful surroundings, we should mention the spectacular views with clear skies, overlooking La Baie des Anges and its several miles of beaches.

At night, Le Royal is adorned with a robe of light. Images and lighting are projected onto the façade, taking you on a lyrical and poetic journey.  Magical evenings await you.
