Résidence de l'Ambassadeur Britannique en France
39 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré 75008 Paris
The Hotel de Charost is a private mansion located at 39 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, in Paris, close to the Élysée Palace. Built in 1722 for Armand de Béthune, second duke of Charost and governor of Louis XV, it was designed by the architect Antoine Mazin. After being an aristocratic residence, it has known several prestigious uses, including as an imperial palace under Pauline Borghese, sister of Napoleon Bonaparte, who bought it in 1803\. In 1814, it became the official residence of the UK ambassador to France, a position he still holds today. With its richly decorated lounges, English gardens and diplomatic history, the Hôtel de Charost is a strong symbol of Franco-British relations.
