Guests at Hotel Bourgogne & Montana will have the privilege of waking up in the morning next to the Palais Bourbon, the prestigious monument that is home to France’s National Assembly, the seat of the French Parliament.

 

The Palais Bourbon is located in alignment with the Bridge and Place de la Concorde, whose splendour can be admired from Room 67 of Hotel Bourgogne & Montana.

The Palais Bourbon and Hôtel de Lassay were built simultaneously, from 1722 to 1728, on land acquired by the Duchesse of Bourbon in 1720, part of which she ceded to her lover, the Marquis de Lassay. The Palais, completed in 1728, in a style resembling the Grand Trianon, was considered during the 18^th century as “the city’s grandest ornament after the royal residences”.

First the seat of the Council of the Five Hundred, then Chamber of Deputies, it is now home to the National Assembly. Under heavy protection, the National Assembly and the environs are among the most secured areas in Paris.
