Hôtel d’Angleterre

St-Germain & Les Invalides


If the walls could talk… This former garden of the British Embassy is where the Treaty of Paris ending the American Revolution was prepared in 1783. Hemingway lodged here in 1921 (in room 14), as did Charles Lindbergh in 1927 after completing the world’s first solo nonstop flight from New York to Paris. Its 27 exquisite rooms are individually decorated. Rates include breakfast.
