With the complicity of the Musée Grévin, Polka Galerie and Emanuele Scorcelletti have imagined, to celebrate the cotton wedding of the reopening of the prestigious hotel, crazy meetings between former residents.

From General de Gaulle to Louis de Funès, Edith Piaf to Madonna, discover amazing stories that could have taken place in the corridors of the five-star. It seems that the interpreter of "La Vie en rose" liked to push the song in the old bistro of the hotel. The soul of the place is still there, facing the Place de la Concorde. A few meters higher, located on the sixth floor, the Bernstein Suite, with its private terrace, offers a breathtaking view of the Grand Palace and the Eiffel Tower. She was named in tribute to the composer of the soundtrack of the movie "West Side Story", this year, in these images, it is Jimi Hendrix who played a piece ...
