Come into the
hotel and discover the origins of Rue de l’Université. The “chemin des
Treilles” was one of the alleys of Reine Margot’s garden and became the “Rue de
l’Université” in the 17th century. This quarter of Saint Germain des Pres
was fist inhabited by Dominican, Carmelite and Visitation convents.In 1685, the
building of Pont Royal shortened the way between the two banks of the Seine River
and caused a considerable development of this part of the city. In the 18th century,
during the Regence, the place fulfilled its development and became the centre
of elegance and good taste.When entering the hotel, begin your trip through time,
art and history.
