ACTIVITIES:

Located just steps away from Champs-Élysées on the right bank of the River Seine, the luxurious Hotel Lancaster is known for serving the glamorous elite. Built as a townhouse in 1889, the luxe property was later converted into the elegant hotel that stands before us today. Its private home origin can be seen from the grand galley, wide enough to allow a horse and carriage to enter the home and into the courtyard for parking. Now, this passage is where a spacious bar and restaurant reside, the latter a celebrated spot for French gastronomical dishes. Steps away from the Champs de Elysées and the Arc de Triomphe, the Hotel Lancaster reveals the French art of living. The property contains an extensive and valuable collection of artworks subtly combined with contemporary elements.
Markedly Parisian through and through, hundreds of antiques, paintings, gleaming parquet floors and Baccarat crystal chandeliers solidify the traditional French style. This address is a piece of heaven nestled in the heart of Paris that offers the utmost comfort and refinement to its guests. Most of the accommodations are situated around a beautiful courtyard that provides guests with a calm and peaceful atmosphere and an ideal place for a gourmet lunch or dinner of French cuisine from Monsieur Restaurant or an afternoon tea or cocktails carefully prepared at Le Marlène Bar. Contemporary and traditional elements merge to create a harmonious balance; every detail has been considered to create a classic and elegant ambience.
There is something eminently homely about the rooms – 56 in all, with street or courtyard view. Herringbone parquet floors with the occasional atmospheric creak, panelled walls, antique furniture and ample mirrors add bags of period vibe although the choice of wall art won’t be to everyone’s taste: Kiev-born Boris Pastoukhoff (1894-1974), official portrait artist to Russia’s last Tsar, lived here in the 1930s, and some 80 of his heavy, gilt-framed oils decorate rooms and public areas today. Compact bathrooms are geometric with bath and shower, floor-to-ceiling white marble, incense sticks and Clarins courtesy products. The ultimate is suite 401 where Marlène Dietrich lived – leaving behind her Érard baby grand piano and a glass-covered coffee table showcasing a pair of her gloves, a hand mirror, feather and framed photo.

More Marlène Dietrich
85 M² Double Bed. Street view. Bathroom with Clarins products. Decorated in the colors of Parma, the fetish color of the star, the suite brings together an anthology of memories and a magnificent grand piano. The decorative elements evoke, while modernizing, the fashion of the 30s.
Breakfast is served in the elegant salle de petit dejeuner with oyster-grey panelling, chandelier and more of Pastoukhoff’s gilt-framed oils. The buffet is the classic French mix of buttery croissants and pains au chocolat, baguette, fruit, cheese, ham, cereals and cooked-to-order eggs, but unless you’re a big eater you will derive more culinary satisfaction from an à la carte black truffle omelette, caviar-laced scrambled eggs or sweet brioche with eggs and homemade foie gras courtesy of Michelin-starred chef Sébastien Giroud. Kudos for the quick ‘café Parisian’ breakfast (coffee, juice, croissant and bread) served until noon in lounge bar Le Marlène.
Regional cuisine from southwest France stars in the enigmatically named Monsieur Restaurant (lunch/dinner menus, a nod to one of the famously bisexual Marlene Dietrich’s string of monsieurs or male lovers. Travel tastebuds with langoustine roasted with fiery Espelette peppers, saddle of lamb stuffed with sweet autumnal chestnuts or aromatic Noir de Bigorre ham air-dried in the Pyrenees. Somewhat maddeningly, the restaurant closes at weekends (Saturday and Sunday), but the bar serves enticing cheese and seafood tasting platters, salads etc. Its courtyard patio is a gorgeous spot to linger beneath the stars. Cocktail lovers, Un Air de Paris – champagne, cointreau noir and lemon – has your name on it.

Monsieur Restaurant
Built in 1889 by Mr. Santiago Drake del Castillo – from the Spanish nobility – the Lancaster hotel was initially a mansion of 4 apartments spread over 4 floors, in the spirit of those of the plain Monceau. In 1925, a Swiss hotelier – Emile Wolf – bought the building to turn it into a luxury establishment. Four additional floors are high. The work ends in 1930 and the Lancaster Hotel opens its doors and welcomes many illustrious visitors, such as Boris Pastoukhoff, Russian painter who paid for his room in paintings, or Marlene Dietrich who stayed at the hotel for 3 years in the 30’s. Its warm and family welcome, its decoration between authenticity and glamor make it an establishment where one likes to find refuge.

The Marlene The Lancaster Bar
Felted, contemporary, bright, The Marlène has the shapes and charm of the 30s. It is an oasis of calm a few meters from the Champs-Elysees, but if you talk to him about fashion, it will become intense the time of the parades.

The Lancaster Patio
Tourists, Parisians, businessmen, for a few minutes or more, all come to the patio to disconnect from Paris life. They must be at home, have a good time. If we succeed in creating a beautiful experience, we win a bet that is renewed every day.

Reception Fairs
To make your events exceptional moments, two intimate reception rooms of 30 m² each. A moment of relaxation, a birthday, a lunch with friends, a showroom or an incentive seminar will find their setting, and will be magically accompanied by the creations of the team of Mr. The Berri salon, intimate, plays the card of greedy colors, green almond and lilac. The Fontenoy salon, with its soft colors, expresses a charm full of patina and gives it a personality both strong and elegant sensuality.
A small gym and sauna is accessible from 7am to 9pm. The hidden courtyard garden, strung with pretty neon fairy lights and an abundance of foliage, is an oasis of peace and tranquillity – accessible in the frosty depths of winter too thanks to a heated transparent igloo cocooning a cluster of faux-fur-draped armchairs.

Fitness area
