Hotel Banke Opera Autograph Collection

From its beginnings as a royal palace, and its subsequent transformation into the headquarters of an international bank, Banke Hotel treasures more than three centuries of stories and great secrets within its walls. A historical location, during the 18th and 19th centuries occupied by the Palace and gardens of Queen Hortensia of Holland, who gave birth to her son, Emperor Napoleon III, here in 1808. The current building was built at the beginning of the 20th century to house the headquarters of the Banque Suisse et Française, and it has recently been renovated by the Derby Hotels Collection to form part of the Autograph Collection Hotels.

Inspired by the history of the building and the splendour of the Opera Garnier, all the rooms and suites of the 5* Banke Hotel have excellent equipment and services. Mixing plush, modern furnishings with original details, the chic rooms offer free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs; some add whirlpool tubs, sofas and/or city views. Suites have sitting areas, while some include marble fireplaces and custom-made designer furnishings.
