Talk:Hôtel Ritz Paris

Pool size
According to the article, 1700 square meters, but if you check it out here: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=ritz+paris+pool&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=1676l3380l0l3564l15l10l0l2l2l0l310l1449l1.4.2.1l8l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&biw=1415&bih=1030&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi

it can't be more than 200 square meters, so surely this is a mistake? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.148.49.90 (talk) 03:45, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

Should there be a "Significant Events" Section
The article currently contains a reference to Diana & Dodi Fayed's visit prior to their death in 1997. Pamela Harriman died in the pool at this hotel (also, coincidentally, in 1997). Should these items be moved to a new section? Or should Harriman also be added to the History section? Or simply not included at all?
 * Further research leads to some confusion about the location of the pool where Harriman suffered her stroke. Some sources suggest it was in the U.S. Embassy in Paris rather than in the Ritz. Dharris 18:48, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

About the "Une époque formidable" movie role
I am removing the following text:


 * A more comedic "role" was played in the 1991 movie Une époque formidable ("Wonderful Times"), where bums (Richard Bohringer and Gérard Jugnot) try to get a room, using an unforgettable verbal trick.

because while this is a great scene, it simply does not take place at the Ritz! The hotel featured in the movie is the Hôtel Raphael Paris, located at 17 Avenue Kléber, close to the Arc de Triomphe which is visible as the two guys exit (or rather are thrown out of) the hotel. This is a quite different area of the city.

BTW, as of 2006, the "Presidential Suite" which they try to obtain costs 2680 euros per night. "Standard" rooms there start at 465 euros. I wonder how expensive the Ritz itself is. 82.124.253.133 18:36, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Imperial Suite location?????
The Imperial Suite is located on the first floor Are you sure? This seems odd. Does this actually mean the first floor ABOVE the ground floor? And yes, I do need an answer on this. Thanks in advance. --24.21.220.126 (talk) 07:54, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Yes that's right. Its not exactly a conventional skyscraper hotel in which the penthouse is on the top floor.♦ Dr. Blofeld  09:27, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

2016 fire
The Metro is reporting that there is a large fire in the roof of The Ritz. I'd add the info myself but I have to go out soon. Mjroots (talk) 09:15, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

Primary source
We've got way too much WP:PEACOCK sourced to the hotel's (now dead) web site. This should all be removed. I took out a couple of them. Per WP:PRIMARY, the hotel should only be used for undisputed facts, like say the hotel's street address. Kendall-K1 (talk) 14:01, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
