Categories : Do it in Paris, published on : 6/12/26
To watch the Tour de France finish in Paris, choosing a hotel close to the Champs-Élysées makes all the difference. Hôtel Le Marianne, a 4-star establishment in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, places you just a few minutes' walk from the finish line, on the legendary avenue where the conclusion of the Grande Boucle plays out every year. On Sunday 26 July 2026, the riders will set off from Thoiry to reach the capital, climb the Butte Montmartre three times, then descend towards the Arc de Triomphe and the Champs-Élysées for the final sprint. From 11 rue Paul Baudry, you reach the avenue in a few steps, cheer on the peloton, then return to the calm of an elegant and discreet Parisian residence.

The Tour de France 2026 finish on the Champs-Élysées
The 113th edition of the Tour de France ends on Sunday 26 July 2026 in Paris, at the close of a final 130-kilometre stage linking Thoiry, in the Yvelines, to the capital. Brought back after the popular success of the previous year, the finale once again takes in the Butte Montmartre and the famous cobbled climb of rue Lepic, ascended three times, before the peloton heads towards the Arc de Triomphe and the finish line on the Champs-Élysées, in the 8th arrondissement.
The publicity caravan is expected in the afternoon, the riders in the late evening, for a sprint that promises to be hard-fought. Access is free along the avenue: it is best to arrive early to secure a good spot near the finish.
An ideal location to experience the event on foot
The whole appeal of Le Marianne lies in its location. The hotel sits at 11 rue Paul Baudry, just a few metres from the axis linking place de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe, where the excitement of finish day is concentrated. You reach the Champs-Élysées in a few minutes on foot, without relying on overcrowded transport or the many street closures imposed by the event. In the morning, you stroll along avenue George V or avenue Montaigne, still peaceful.
When the afternoon comes, you reach your viewing spot at just the right moment, then head back to your room as soon as the last breakaway has passed, away from the crowds. For a weekend in such high demand, this immediate proximity is a real advantage.
Your rooms and the comfort of Le Marianne
After a day spent along the route, retreat to one of the hotel's 31 rooms.
From Classic to Family rooms, by way of Superior and Deluxe categories, each offers a warm atmosphere, refined décor and air conditioning that is welcome in the heart of the Parisian summer. Some categories feature an optional balcony, ideal for unwinding after the bustle of the day. The Family rooms, sleeping up to four guests and interconnecting, are particularly well suited to enthusiasts coming to experience the finish with their family.
Services designed for an exceptional stay
Le Marianne offers a range of high-end amenities.
- Begin the day with a buffet breakfast served in a bright room opening onto a leafy patio.
- On returning from the Champs-Élysées, relax in the hammam, available for private hire on reservation, or make use of the fitness room.
- The Honesty Bar, open until 2 a.m., offers champagnes, French wines and aperitifs to extend the evening and toast the yellow jersey.
- Secure parking on reservation, a concierge service available 24/7 and lunchtime and evening room service complete the experience.
