Accommodation
Built in 1889, the Lancaster was originially a private townhouse containing four apartments on four floors, in the style of those of Paris' Plaine Monceau. It illustrates the art of living à la Française, as it existed during the Second Empire. In 1925, Emile Wolf, a Swiss hotelier, purchased the building to transform it into a luxury establishment. He added four floors, the construction work ending in 1930 & the Hotel Lancaster was born. It offers rooms and lounges appointed with antiques and fine works of art, mainly 17th-century collectibles, precious items, crystal and porcelain, and traditional furniture.
The Hotel Lancaster was purchased from the Savoy Group of London by Mr. and Mrs. Andrieu in 1995. Its new owners undertook a complete renovation of the hotel to restore its distinctive character and splendour, bringing back to life the “tradition”, “elegance”, and “art of living” that made its international reputation.
Hotel Lancaster offers 60 rooms, including 11 suites.
