The total construction budget for the project has been increased in 2013 from $401 million to $460 million, financed by a non-recourse project loan of $300 million.

“Our investment in The Peninsula Paris marks our commitment to the French market,” said Sheikh Nawaf Bin Jassim Bin Jabor Al-Thani, chairman of Katara Hospitality.
