Stylistic crash: between morals and housing

© Hôtel Espérance

Elegant showcases that conceal the pages of a pivotal era, Art Deco hotels bear witness to a suspended time, between the euphoria of the 1920s and the shadows of the crisis, a period when architecture and mores intertwined in a fascinating whirlwind. Each facade tells the story of a society hungry for modernity, cocktails and jazz. Silent witnesses to wild parties with vibrant music, women who dared to wear trousers and smoke...; follow the guide to hear what the hotels have to say.
