Nicole Kidman was given the royal treatment this week as she attended Paris Fashion Week

The Australian actress, 57, is one of the flurry of stars who have descended on the French capital to take in the high-end designer shows.

The Academy Award winner has shared snippets of her lavish stay in a suite at the world-famous The Peninsula Paris, which costs around $30,000 (€18,050) per night.

Nicole appears to be staying in the Peninsula suite, the largest lodging inside the luxury hotel.

The suite sleeps up to three guests and features an expansive floorplan consisting of massive living and dining areas, as well as two dressing rooms that connect to a huge bathroom with two toilets and a bath tub.

A large fireplace and a grand piano are situated in the living room while the lengthy dining table seats 10 people.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle of Paris Fashion Week, the mother-of-four indulged in a bit of relaxation and showed off her radiant complexion while relaxing in a bathrobe. 

One snap showed Nicole sitting on her hotel windowsill at dusk, gazing out at the iconic Haussmann architecture of the Avenue Kléber.

She treated her fans to a few glimpses of other views from the room, including one of the Eiffel Tower lit up at night, shimmering over the darkened city rooftops.

Nicole’s posts came amid a social media furor over the fact she and her close friend Naomi Watts attended the Balenciaga show on Wednesday.

Nearly two years ago, the brand was plunged into scandal and forced to apologise over an ad campaign that prompted even frequent Balenciaga model Kim Kardashian to declare she was ‘outraged’ and ‘disgusted’.

Some pictures in the campaign showed children holding teddy-bear-shaped purses that were dressed in what appeared to be bondage gear.

One photo was of a handbag on a desk strewn with various papers – including a United States Supreme Court ruling involving child pornography. 

A particularly controversial picture showed a child lying down on a couch next to a coffee table that held empty wineglasses and Stella Artois chalices. 

Kim publicly announced that she was ‘shaken by the disturbing images’ and was ‘reevaluating my relationship’ with Balenciaga.

However Nicole – who had recently starred in a Balenciaga campaign – never buckled under the pressure to issue her own statement denouncing the brand, even while social media commentators furiously demanded she do so.

As the dust settled, Kim decided to remain in the Balenciaga fold, officially becoming the face of the fashion house this January.

Meanwhile, Nicole demonstrated her own loyalty to the label when she and Naomi cheerfully attended its latest fashion show in Paris this week.

Nicole brought along her 15-year-old daughter Sunday Rose, who is one of the two children she shares with her country star husband Keith Urban. 

Outraged social media users sprang online to condemn the two movie stars, making note of the fact both of them have children of their own. 

‘I simply cannot believe that anyone, particularly a parent, would associate with this brand. Much less GIVE them positive publicity and support,’ fumed one. 

‘Such poor taste to associate with this brand,’ seethed another, while a third recoiled: ‘Eww. Balenciaga are Not Like Us.’
