Hotel Meurice, Paris, France, 1977

Notes from the collector: Stayed one night as we arrived in town early and our hotel across the road was full. Would have slept in the car if I had known at the time the Gestapo used it as headquarters during the war. A good article on the property in AD years ago. Hotel Meurice in Paris is just around the corner from the Intercontinental which is just around the corner from the Ritz. I believe Ernest Hemingway was the first to enter it after the end of World War II. A man with impeccable taste.
