Summary Young, but not in the least bit shy. Chic and stylish, but at the same time relaxed and uninhibited. Regionally connected, but also open to the world. Situated close to Saarlouis‘s city centre, the LA MAISON hotel invites you to a rendezvous between tradition and modernity. The former Higher Administrative Court is celebrating a stylish comeback as a place of hospitality and enhancing the cityscape. The redeveloped villa with a modern extension and its own park reflects Saarlouis‘s culture and way of life: charming and with a contemporary French flair. Thus, the 4-star superior hotel with 38 rooms, meeting rooms and PASTIS bistro & feinkost positions itself as an individualist with an exciting character. The historical grande dame has increased in size with a linear extension on its north side, bringing together the old and the new, and creating an intensive quality on a 5,000-m2-large area. Thus, historical architecture meets modern design language. The finest ingredients and skills are combined to create sophisticated cuisine, French flair gives rise to a casual bistro culture, and old trees are transformed into landscape architecture. References to the city of Saarlouis - named after Louis XIV - resonate throughout, guiding guests through design and indulgence. Occasionally obvious, sometimes hidden, often tongue in cheek or even unconventional - but always consciously special. PASTIS bistro with its conservatory exudes the French way of life being both casual and informal, and has been awarded the Bib Gourmand in the Guide Michelin 2016. The integral delicatessen sells artisanal delicacies from the hotel kitchen. Owner Günter Wagner‘s aim is to enable friendly social encounters between people: „We want everyone to feel welcome“, says the hotelier. Business and individual travellers, international gourmets, visitors from neighbouring France and Luxembourg, and naturally the citizens of Saarlouis. The interior creates the perfect setting for this, with its warm elegance, original change in perspective and details with object character. „This is not your run-of-the-mill stuff“, smiles Hotel Director Alexander Reber, referring to the hotel‘s furniture, which is anything but standard. „Whether by a sculptural staircase, a glazed conservatory that floats above the park, a walk-in wine cabinet or themed suites, our guests will be surprised“, says the owner. On account of all of this, the LA MAISON hotel is a member of DESIGN HOTELSTM - a select range of over 250 hotels with personality in destinations all over the world. Prälat-Subtil-Ring 22 66740 Saarlouis T. 06831-89 44 04 40 F. 06831-89 44 04 44 [email protected] www.lamaison-hotel.de p. 6 MEDIA INFORMATION 3. Details 3.1 HOTEL ACCOMMODATION The redeveloped villa forms the entrance to the hotel ensemble designed by CBAG.studio. A double, curved staircase leads guests to the raised ground floor. Here the hotel hall functions as a place of communication: The reception serves as a linchpin for requests, questions and a warm welcome. The lobby is a place of flowing transitions, open encounters and quiet corners into which to retreat. It leads from one area to the next and at the same time sets the design tone: the delicate handling of high-quality materials, changing colours, exquisite designer pieces and creative references to Louis XIV. A few steps further on, the open kitchen becomes visible to the right of the reception, followed by LOUIS, the former courtroom. It offers the perfect setting for special occasions and meetings. Noteworthy here is the impressive ceiling height of almost six metres, the extravagant chandelier and the direct access to the park terrace. Alongside, LOUIS salon can be used as a private dining room or as a billiard room. It has a range of vintage objects, a contemporary interior, and fine details such as the gold-coloured wallpaper with an eel-skin appearance. The LOUIS bar with library is a lively place. Here people talk, laugh, read or work, depending on their preference and time of day, and the afternoon changes to evening seamlessly. There is a great deal of coming and going, a relaxed bar culture with competent service and good-quality drinks. Wine storage shelves structure the area as room dividers, and in the library the fireplace, chairs, books, volumes and board games together engender a living-room atmosphere. And there is a wonderful view of the park to boot! Those who wander further will comes to the former caretaker house, which is connected to the villa on its southern side. Completely gutted and extended with a conservatory that floats above the park, the CBAG.studio architects have created a home for PASTIS bistro here. It has a French feel to it and a casual atmosphere. Its strength is the clever interplay of creative cuisine, original decor and a humorous twist: On the walls, specially-designed graphics recount anecdotes about Saarlouis, and in the PASTIS, pots hang from the ceiling that turn out to be lights in the open roof structure.
