The current Peruvian ambassador to France is Rolando Javier Ruiz Rosas Cateriano, also accredited to Monaco since July 11, 2022.

[3] In November 1942, Peruvian and other Latin American diplomats were moved to Bad Godesberg by German forces, being exchanged in a prisoner swap with the United States and moved to Portugal or Switzerland, leading to the consulate in Paris closing, with Switzerland acting as Peru's protecting power instead.

[4] In 1944, after Peru severed relations with the French State of Philippe Pétain and established relations with Free France,[5][6] the Peruvian legation in France—now based in Algiers—became known as the Representation of Peru before the French Committee of National Liberation (Spanish: Representación del Perú ante el Comité Francés de Liberación Nacional).

The Parisian consulate only reopened after the liberation of the city, with the Peruvian envoy arriving to the Hotel Bristol on October 5, 1944.

In 1912, the hôtel was purchased by Rafael de Miero, ambassador of Uruguay to France, and was remodeled by Émile Hochereau.
