THE LOUVRE-LENS HOTEL IS PROUD OF PAYING HOMAGE TO HISTORY
The region is listed on UNESCO’s World Heritage and the city of Lens is in full revival. The Louvre–Lens Hotel was intended to point out this distinctive identity, pretty rough times in the past opposed to gratifying present days, and a future full of hope. It was set up in a former mining village where the dwellings still inhabited at the beginning of renovation have been united. Everywhere in the hotel, references to the former mining legacy will catch your eyes : the original charcoal grey façade , the door and window frames which have been preserved, the design fireplace in the lobby to remind you of the old smelter, the garden recalling the old kitchen gardens, and the industrial style inside with black wall panels to evoke coal.
WARM COMFORTING SPACIOUS ROOMS OF CHARACTER
Some of the bedrooms retain the reminders of life as it was in those days with their raw brick walls. Times were rough but people in the region have always been friendly, kind, and generous. And the hotel has inherited this kindness, friendliness, and generosity. Dark colors and silky fabric set a soothing atmosphere, room perfumes are made by a local craftsman, bathtubs which are found in 8 rooms in addition to Italian showers (suitable for the disabled), rooms overlooking the garden or the museum. Everything here is made for you to enjoy the place, relax, and feel well. You’ll feel like you never want to leave.
If you are looking for the perfect romantic destination dedicated to relaxation and well-being, well you’ve found it. The Hotel Louvre-Lens offers a large sauna with a big window overlooking the museum. Moreover it can be privatized on request, as well as massages, and there is also a fitness room.
A TASTY AND FLAVOURED GOURMET CUSINE TO DISCOVER
The charm continues all the way to the hotel restaurant, a bar-brasserie which welcomes gourmets as well as hotel clients. This hotel offers a lively, cozy bar. Here you'll also find a billiard table, chess set and foosball. Don't forget to enjoy a nice cocktail or a glass of great wine at the bar,
Or better yet on match nights, you’ll feel as excited as RC Lens supporters, and will even more enjoy the local brasserie cuisine from fresh and seasonal products cooked lovingly by Raynald Boucaut, the Chef.
