Built in 1774 by Alexandre Brongniart, then a young architect, at the request of Princess Marie-Catherine of Monaco, the palace was built "between courtyard and garden" according to a classical arrangement. Acquired in 1838 by billionaire Williams Hope, the son of a banker, the hotel was transformed with the addition of two wings and the installation of modern 19th century comfort. It was bought in the early 1930s by Poland.
