Founded in 1898 by Swiss hotelier César Ritz, the hotel has remained a destination for distinguished guests, such as Coco Chanel, Oscar Wilde, and The Duke & Duchess of Windsor. The hotel has also been mentioned in several novels, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald's Tender is the Night, Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, and featured in several feature films including Funny Face, with Audrey Hepburn.

Originally affixed to steamer trunks and suitcases, luggage labels were subtle markers of status—signaling where one had traveled and, more importantly, where one had stayed. Today, they remain highly collectible artifacts of early travel.
