Hotel Louvre Lens

The silhouette of the Hôtel Louvre-Lens is, like the mining basin that surrounds it, a UNESCO world heritage site. It bears witness to the industrial past which has shaped the memory of men and the landscapes of the region. It is that of an authentic settlement, formerly called Cité 9. To transform this group of workers' houses into a four-star hotel, tact and discernment were required. Esprit de France found these qualities in a local team. Hand in hand, the Maes Architectes firm from Lille and the interior designer Guillaume Da Silva from Roubaix were able to preserve the authenticity of the places and respectfully translate their identity. The regular scanning of the facades unified by two glass faults and a large garden now houses 52 rooms, a fitness and well-being area, seminar rooms, a brasserie and a bar. It projects into the present the history of a little-known destination, which has become essential since the opening of the Louvre-Lens Museum, located a 3-minute walk from the hotel.
