The building of the Hotel Lyon-Mulhouse as well as n°2, 4 and 6 of boulevard Beaumarchais have been built on the site where the writer had his particular hotel..
This particular hotel has been constructed on the embankments of Canal St.Martin a channel that permit to join the north-east of Paris to the Seine by the maritime way.
The Hotel Lyon-Mulhouse has been in existence since 1920. The Breakfast room was a restaurant and the reception desk a coffee shop. In conclusion our establishment is 80 years old and the successive landlords -who are only to the number of four- have always considered this hotel as
belonging to their family. It is a reason, since generations, one always made the necessary to improve and to renovate this hotel, because the goal remained unaltered since 1920 : To satisfy our guests who they are tourists or businessmen.
We undertook the complete renovation of the rooms In march 2006 in order to add a little parisien style and to offer air-conditionning in all our rooms.
The name of Lyon-Mulhouse was given to the hotel because in the old days the stage-coaches to Lyon and Mulhouse were leaving from the Place de la Bastille near boulevard Beaumarchais.
It should be known that in our district at n°10 of boulevard Beaumarchais there was the " Pacra Concert" that was up to 1968 the Olympia of the time.. Charles Aznavour made his beginnings there!
In front of the hotel is " Le Marais " an historic district of Paris.
It should be known that the first castle of Kings of France was " rue des Tournelles " just opposite the " Jean Beausire "street. It was wooden built and burnt down. Nowadays there is no trace left .
