Origin and history

The Bony Hotel is a private hotel built in 1826 by architect Jules de Joly for René Bony, a public works contractor. Located at 32 rue de Treviso in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, it embodies the Charles X style, with a three-storey structure. Its facades, staircase decorated with First Empire motifs, and large living room in the style of Revolution have been listed as historical monuments since 1927. The entrance to the courtyard, visible from rue Bleue, and the facade on garden, accessible by rue de Treviso, highlight its architectural elegance.

The hotel was then inhabited by Marshal Édouard Mortier, Duke of Treviso, before being partially classified in 1976 (facades, staircase, living room) and to see his grid registered in 1986. In 2024, he was occupied by the French company Morning, marking a transition between historical heritage and contemporary use. Its history reflects the social and urban changes of Paris in the 19th century, between aristocracy, military and business.

The protection of the monument extends to specific elements: the hotel itself (classified in 1976) and its wrought iron gate (registered in 1986). These measures preserve a rare testimony of Parisian private architecture under the July monarchy, when the 9th arrondissement was transformed under the impulse of entrepreneurs and elites. Sources, such as Monumentum and Wikipedia, confirm its status as private property, while emphasizing its partial openness to the public via its iconic facades.
