Branded Residences in Paris: The New Standard of Luxury Living in 2025
In 2025, Paris is witnessing a quiet but significant evolution in its luxury real estate market: the rise of branded residences. These exclusive homes, developed in partnership with globally recognized hotel and fashion brands, are reshaping the expectations of high-end buyers. Combining the privacy of residential living with the services of five-star hospitality, branded residences are no longer a novelty—they are becoming a defining marker of ultra-prime urban living.
Once confined to emerging resort markets and global hubs like Miami or Dubai, this model has made its way to Paris, aligning perfectly with the city’s emphasis on lifestyle, heritage, and service. In a real estate landscape already shaped by scarcity and discretion, branded residences offer a curated, all-inclusive alternative that resonates with a new generation of affluent global buyers.
A Rapidly Expanding Global Trend
The global market for branded residences has grown steadily over the past two decades, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) estimated between 11% and 16%. In 2024 alone, more than 640 branded residence schemes were operating worldwide, with over 100 new projects under construction or planned for delivery in the next three years【source: Knight Frank, Savills】.
Europe accounts for an increasing share of this market, with 84% of all branded residence developments affiliated with hotel groups, and 93% of upcoming pipeline projects co-located—meaning they are integrated with or adjacent to luxury hospitality offerings【source: Branded Resi Global Outlook 2025】.
This convergence of real estate and hospitality reflects an emerging truth: the world’s wealthiest buyers are no longer simply looking for property. They are seeking experiences, ease, and prestige, all delivered with the consistency of a luxury brand.
Paris Steps Into the Spotlight
Long considered a market defined by its architectural conservation and regulatory constraints, Paris might seem a surprising backdrop for such innovation. Yet in 2025, several flagship developments are reshaping the perception of Parisian real estate.
Maybourne Riviera Residences – Saint-Germain-des-Prés
One of the most anticipated branded residence projects in Paris, this development is set within a converted historic site in the Îlot Saint-Germain. A partnership between the Maybourne Hotel Group and private developers, the residence will feature 23 ultra-luxury apartments with direct access to services provided by the future Maybourne Saint-Germain hotel: private dining, wellness spa, valet, and personalized concierge.
Prices are expected to start at €6 million, with larger units exceeding €10 million, placing them among the highest per-square-meter rates in the capital.
Louis Vuitton’s Entry into Hospitality – Champs-Élysées
In 2025, Louis Vuitton confirmed the creation of a hybrid retail-hospitality space at 103 Avenue des Champs-Élysées. While not a traditional residential model, the project reflects the brand’s long-term intention to enter luxury lodging and experiential living.
Analysts view this as a first step toward Maison-branded living spaces, with real estate arms of fashion houses increasingly involved in residential projects across major cities.
Why High-End Buyers Are Drawn to Branded Living
For affluent clients—many of whom split time between multiple international residences—branded properties offer the ultimate combination of comfort, consistency, and service.
- Fully managed lifestyle: Residents benefit from 24/7 concierge, security, housekeeping, and often room service.
- Global recognition: The prestige of owning a home associated with names like Aman, Four Seasons, or Ritz-Carlton provides a form of social capital.
- Strong resale and rental performance: Branded residences typically command a 20% to 35% premium over similar non-branded properties in the same location.
- Turnkey efficiency: These homes often come fully furnished and interior-designed, reducing the timeline between acquisition and occupancy.
In Paris, where renovation timelines can be lengthy and regulations restrictive, the appeal of a ready-to-live, fully serviced home cannot be overstated.
Market Outlook for Paris
Industry leaders expect branded residences to represent up to 8% of Paris’s ultra-prime inventory by 2028, a notable shift in a city traditionally cautious about large-scale luxury developments.
As tourism infrastructure recovers and luxury hospitality expands its footprint in central arrondissements, cross-branded ventures are expected to become more frequent, particularly in:
- The 8th arrondissement, near the Triangle d'Or
- The 6th and 7th, with strong cultural cachet and global familiarity
- The Rive Droite, where former office buildings are being converted into mixed-use concepts
Conclusion
The rise of branded residences in Paris marks a new chapter in the evolution of luxury urban living. More than just homes, these properties offer an ecosystem of trust, refinement, and ease, curated by some of the world’s most recognized names.
For buyers seeking more than an address—those in search of an identity, a lifestyle, and a seamless way of living—branded residences now offer a compelling proposition. And for Paris, this growing trend is not a departure from tradition, but a reinterpretation of elegance, perfectly in step with the city’s enduring reputation for excellence.
