Origin and history

The Hotel de Lannion is a mansion built in 1754 by architect Jean Damun for Jacques Hocquart, treasurer general of artillery, and banker Pierre Salles. Located at 75 rue de Lille in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, it was designed as a rental hotel, twin of the hotel of Laubespin located opposite. He owes his name to Count Lannion, who was tenant of it.

In 1898, the building on the street and its cochère door, burned during the Paris Commune, were replaced by a building designed by Frédéric Honoré. The hotel preserves notable architectural elements, such as a symmetrical garden façade with a three-sided forebody decorated with double ionic pilasters, as well as Louis XV style interior decorations.

The hotel belonged to Hubert Guerrand-Hermès, son of the former general manager of Hermès, who died there. He appealed to François-Joseph Graf for his interior design. In 2022, it was sold for 47.95 million euros to a company manager. Parts of the building, such as the garden façade and interior decorations, have been protected as historical monuments since 1954 and 1958.

The protected elements include the garden façade, the interior decoration of the large Louis XV living room, the Louis XV alcove bedroom, and the stucco dining room on the ground floor, as well as the roof between courtyard and garden. These protections highlight the heritage value of this private hotel, witness to the architecture and aristocratic lifestyle of the eighteenth century.
