What to expect

The Hôtel de la Marine is one of the most emblematic buildings in Paris. Located at 2 Place de la Concorde in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, it has been a symbol of the city since its construction was completed in 1774.

Ange-Jacques Gabriel is the architect who designed it. Born in Paris in 1698, he was one of the most famous architects of his time and held the title of First Architect to the King. His best-known works include the Place de la Concorde and the Hôtel de Crillon, the Château de Compiègne, the Petit Trianon and the Royal Opera of the Palace of Versailles, an extension of the Louvre Museum, the Palais du Luxembourg and the Château de Rambouillet.

The Hôtel de la Marine is also part of the Centre des Monuments Nationaux, an organisation that oversees and maintains many of the most important historic monuments in Paris, such as the Arc de Triomphe, the Sainte-Chapelle and the Conciergerie, as well as throughout France, such as the Mont-Saint-Michel Abbey.

Today, the Hôtel de la Marine is open to the public and offers a unique insight into the history of Paris. Visitors can admire its superb interiors refurnished in 18th-century style and enjoy a breathtaking view over the Place de la Concorde and the Champs-Élysées.

The Hôtel de la Marine is also home to the superb Al Thani Collection, one of the most impressive private art collections in the world. The collection, presented by the Al Thani Collection Foundation, comprises more than 4,000 works of art from all over the world, including paintings, sculptures and decorative arts. The Al Thani Collection was created in the 1990s by Sheikh Hamad bin Abdullah Al Thani, former Emir of Qatar. Passionate about art, he collected works of every style and period.

If you are looking for a truly unique and memorable Parisian experience, be sure to add a visit to the Hôtel de la Marine to your list. Whether you are interested in history, art or simply breathtaking views, the Hôtel de la Marine is well worth the detour!
