PB hotel design editorial

Marlene Dietrich lived here. So did Boris Karloff, Clark Gable, and Noel Coward — drawn to a discreet Haussmann townhouse on the Rue de Berri, just off the Champs-Élysées, that had been receiving artists and actors since 1930. Hotel Lancaster, carved from a late-nineteenth-century residential building whose limestone facade carries the full vocabulary of Second Empire ornament — rusticated base, carved consoles, wrought-iron balconies trailing ivy — has always positioned itself as the quieter alternative to the grand palace hotels of the 8th arrondissement, more private apartment than institution. The interiors sustain that feeling across 57 rooms and suites. Herringbone parquet floors, original plaster cornicing, and ceiling medallions set the architectural frame, while the decorative approach layers Louis XV bergères upholstered in teal velvet alongside gilded mirrors and oil paintings in heavy gilt frames — a mix that feels assembled over generations rather than specified in a single pass. Guest rooms shift between a warm ochre palette, with saffron velvet throws and gold-leaf chandeliers, and softer mauve schemes with crystal pendants and Rococo marquetry commodes. The bar, lit by an original leaded-glass skylight, draws the garden light inward through arched steel-framed doors, Murano glass chandelier overhead, Louis Quinze chairs arranged with enough informality to suggest a very well-furnished private salon.

"Hotel Lancaster delivers a truly elevated experience from arrival to departure. I was warmly received upon arriving via Uber, with immediate luggage assistance and seamless service from the entrance to the front desk. Check-in was smooth, my room was ready, and I was personally guided to my accommodations. The room itself was exceptionally comfortable, featuring elegant touches like a chandelier in the bedroom and a beautifully appointed bathroom that met every need. While there was a brief issue during my stay where a neighboring room’s international converter caused a temporary power outage, it was resolved quickly and efficiently by staff. Breakfast was excellent overall, with a well-rounded complimentary offering that more than satisfied. I did try a few add-on items, including the French toast and scrambled eggs with truffle mushrooms. While both had great potential, they fell slightly short—served a bit cold, with the eggs somewhat watery and lighter on truffle than expected. That said, the standard breakfast alone was more than sufficient. Room service was a highlight, particularly the fish and chips, which was delicious and satisfying, complemented by a fresh bread selection. The hotel facilities are equally impressive, offering both indoor and outdoor dining spaces, as well as a spa. I opted for a massage, which was good overall, though it felt slightly shorter than expected. Additional thoughtful touches—like fresh fruit readily available in the reception area—added to the overall experience. I also found the restaurant convenient and functional for hosting a few meetings before heading to the HEC campus. While I didn’t have a notable view from my room, the comfort and quality of the space more than made up for it. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Lancaster, even for a short stay. It provided a strong, comfortable, and elegant start to my trip."
