Having just won the award for Best Lobby from the 11th edition of the European Hotel Design Awards, the Trianon Palace Versailles is certainly one of the most beautiful hotels to be staying in when in France.
The award-winning lobby itself features a Murano glass structure from Andromeda. It is a custom-made creation with knit element, created by Karim Rashid with conception by Michela Vianello, Art Director of Andromeda.
It was also announced that the hotel is to be a opened as Waldorf-Astoria Collection hotel early next year, “signalling the French debut of the luxury brand in one of the country’s most historic locations.”
The estate itself was originally built in 1909 by architect Reni Sergent, who also designed the Plaza Athene in Paris. It features royal gardens and now has the elegant mix of historic splendor and luxurious modern-yet-antique-inspired interiors.
“Trianon Palace Versailles is a spectacular hotel that has deservedly gained a reputation as one of France’s leading luxury retreats,” said Patrick Fitzgibbon, Senior Vice President of Development for Hilton Hotels Corporation in Europe & Africa.
