寫就《名利场》的著名英国作家萨克雷曾言：“如果您身在异乡，却需要家般舒适干净的房间和早餐，还想和同胞一起喝白兰地和浓啤酒，可一句法语都不会讲，那么不要听信旁言，只管放声喊出‘莫里斯’！立即就会有人载您直奔里沃利街。”
是的，从那时起，没有人不知道巴黎里沃利街的莫里斯，尤其是从英国来的客人，莫里斯是他们的首选。因为在莫里斯酒店可以用英语无障碍地交流，这在当时的法国十分稀罕。
英国维多利亚女王访法，将莫里斯作为行宫的不二之选。此后，欧洲各国皇室纷至沓来，莫里斯几乎成为了“国王酒店”，著名的西班牙国王阿方索十三世曾常住套房106-108号，还将马德里皇室的家具搬了进来。
漫长时光中，太多闪耀名字和这里联系在一起。1857年，年轻的列夫·托尔斯泰首次离开俄罗斯只身来到巴黎观察欧洲，第一晚就住在了莫里斯；1879年，正值创作名望高峰的39岁的柴可夫斯基在巴黎开个人作品音乐会，也住在了莫里斯；之后，1918年，37岁的天才画家毕加索带着在意大利结识一年的俄罗斯舞蹈演员欧嘉·科克洛娃在莫里斯酒店的蓬巴杜厅举办了他人生第一次婚礼晚宴；再以后，自1950年起的三十年中，西班牙超现实主义大画家达利每年都有数月时间常住莫里斯，在他四十多岁到七十多岁的时光里，巴黎莫里斯几乎成了他的法国之家；2011年，由伍迪艾伦亲自编剧并执导的著名电影《午夜巴黎》上映，影片中关键的场景就在莫里斯酒店顶层的Belle Etoile套房拍摄的……
至今，光临莫里斯酒店的耳熟能详之名仍细数不尽，虽然酒店不便公开宣传当今到访过的各国首脑贵客，但众所周知，自古至今的顶尖艺术人物和不少领袖皇亲凡到巴黎皆钟情于此。而每次外国首脑下榻，莫里斯均照常对外开门营业，其安全接待水平之高，淡定从容风范之美，始终备受称赞。
English author W. M. Thackeray once wrote， "If you don't speak a word of French， if you like English comfort， clean rooms， breakfast and ma?tres d'h?tel； if in a foreign land， you want your fellow countrymen around you， your brown beer， your friend and your cognac - and your water - do not listen to any of the messengers but with your best British accent cry heartily： "Meurice！ and immediately， someone will come forward to drive you straight to the rue de Rivoli."
From then on， there was no one who did not know Le Meurice on the Rue de Rivoli， Paris. Especially for the guests from the UK， Le Meurice has always been their first choice. It was because one could converse in English without trouble in the hotel， which was very rare in France at that time.
When Queen Victoria visited France， Le Meurice was undoubtedly chosen for her stay. Since then， European royals had frequented， making Le Meurice the hotel of Kings and Queens. The King of Spain Alphonse XIII stayed regularly in Suite 106-8， bringing his own furniture.
In the long span of time， too many famous names have been associated with this hotel. In 1857， the young Lev Tolstoy came to Paris for the first time in his trip to Europe， and he stayed in Le Meurice on the first night； in 1879， at the peak of his fame，39 year-old Tchaikovsky held his solo concert in Paris， who also lived in Le Meurice； after 1918， the 37 year-old genius painter Picasso held his first wedding dinner in Pompadour Salon of Le Meurice with his Russian dancer bride Olga Khokhlova whom he met in Italy a year ago； and then， for thirty years since 1950， Spanish surrealism painter Dalí spent several months every year in Le Meurice. Between age 40 to 70， this hotel has literally become Dalí's home in France； In 2011， Woody Alan wrote and directed the film Midnight in Paris， and the key scene is filmed at Suite La Belle Etoile on top of the hotel......
Today， numerous celebrities stays in Le Meurice， and it is known that heads of state favor this elegant residence the most when they visit Paris.When foreign heads come to stay， Le Meurice would still be open to the public as usual and maintain the highest level of security in its reception， for which the hotel has long been praised.
