Versailles: when luxury hospitality restores heritage

Jan 14, 2026 | 9:40 AM - 10:00 AM

Description

The Airelle project at the Château de Versailles tells the story of how a wing of the palace, formerly occupied by the Ministry of the Armed Forces, was fully restored through a bold partnership with a hotel group.​ A prestige hotel, designed in the very spirit of Versailles, has enabled the rebirth of an exceptional heritage asset while opening up a new economic model for public institutions.​ This is a fascinating case study of a rare and exemplary alliance between heritage enhancement, high-end hospitality and financial innovation.
