The Westin Paris – Vendôme
The Westin Paris – Vendôme, at 3 rue de Castiglione on the corner of the rue de Rivoli, facing the Tuileries Garden opened in April 1878 as the Hôtel Continental,〔Karl Baedeker, ''Paris and Its Environs'', 1878.〕 It was designed by Charles Garnier's son-in-law Henri Blondel〔"Henri Blondel (1832-97), son-in-law of Charles Garnier" (Elaine Denby, ''Grand Hotels: Reality and Illusion'' (1998:85).〕 and was intended to be the most luxurious hotel in Paris at the time. It occupied a full block, the former premises of the Ministry of Finance, (burned in 1871) which had been designed by François-Hippolyte Destailleur in 1817, following the Bourbon Restoration.〔(see note) ).〕 During the first World War the hotel was used as a military hospital by the French.〔"Belonging and Betrayal", Gervase Vernon, Amazon, 2013〕 The Hôtel Continental remained the largest hotel in Paris for decades; the Russian Grand Dukes habitually stayed there;〔(Notes by Lord Hardinge ).〕 at the Liberation of Paris, bedsheets were hung from its windows as cheerful flags of surrender.〔(Vintage photo )〕 The hotel was renamed the Inter-Continental Paris in 1969, and then became The Westin Paris in 2005, adding the suffix Vendôme to its name in 2010.
