Historic Bed & Breakfast Questionnaire
Year erected: 1755
What is the history of the property?
Unfortunately local archives cannot supply sufficient information about original owners but we know that at some stage the chateau was a summer residence of one of Napoleon's generals.

Given the architecture and the location of the house we think it was rather a bourgeois house than an aristocratic residence. Although the presence of the tympanum on the facade and the lack of internal decoration (usually a coat of arms / family insignia) may indicate the removal of aristocratic emblems during the Great Revolution.
What was the era and/or the architectural style in which the property was built?
Louis XV
Is the property surrounded by other historic buildings?
There are further historical buildings on site like stables, dovecote or the Orangery. The property is situated 14 km from a historical town of Pezenas (most buildings date back to the 16th century) well known of Molier.
Has restoration work taken place?
Yes. We started the renovation works in 2014 and conducting it in several stages (converting all existing buildings into accommodation, SPA and wine tasting room) we terminated in 2018.
Are there any elements of particular historical importance at the building?
We managed to restore a couple of mosaic floors, one of the guest rooms suites has a stucco decorated ceiling, we preserved 19th century troughs which are exposed in one of the gîtes, several rooms have oryginal fire places. In our kitchen we discovered a 16th century bread oven. The property is full of antique furniture and garden statues/fountains.
Are there any important guests or previous owners worth mentioning?
In terms of our guests we try to keep their privacy and do not announce to the world whom we host, sorry. In terms of previous owners, as mentioned before, the house used to be a summer residence of one of Napoleon's generals.

What is the history of the property?
The first mention of Rosenegg Castle dates back to 1187. The manor house, located in Fieberbrunn, Austria, today a 4-star hotel, is of medieval origin and is made up of three structures joined together and high towers soaring into the sky.
Family Hotel Schloss Rosenegg has stood the test of time and the many vicissitudes associated with its history. Its walls have borne witness to the stories and destinies of those who lived there and left their marks. Famous people such as Countess Margarethe Maultasch or Napoleon, for example, lived here.
It was the Rosenberg family’s residence from 1555 to 1760. Baron Rosenberg, a faithful friend of Nostradamus, maintained intensive correspondence with the scholar, physician and astrologer.

Historic Hotel Questionnaire
Year erected: 1617
What is the history of the property?
When you walk through the doors of Hôtel Reisen — you don't travel back in time. You merely stroll into the memoirs of an eclectic, flamboyant past.

The hotel is set directly on Stockholm's scenic waterfront and uses the historic Old Town (Gamla Stan) as its picturesque and telling backdrop. The building's foundation dates back to 1617 — a time when Gustavus Adolphus the Great was the King of Sweden and the world had just invented telescopes and steam turbines.

For centuries, the building has served numerous functions. The name originates from the Dutchman Fredrik Reiss who ran a semi-legal coffeehouse in the 1750s. But — it's also been used as storehouse, drinking den, and an epicentre for some of the most prominent poets in European history. In here, Carl Michael Bellman was reciting «Drink out thy glass!» whilst chirping up naughty beauties. Fritiof Nilsson Piraten was using room 705 and six half-bottles of Château Margaux to find an exit to his writer's block. The Russian-American Nobel Prize winner, Joseph Brodsky, locked himself in a corner room drafting poems to make cracks in the Soviet Empire.

And, the list goes on as their nights were long.
Is the property surrounded by other historic buildings?
Yes, the property is located in the middle of the historic Old Town Stockholm.
Has restoration work taken place?
The hotel underwent a full renovation that was finished 2021.
Are there any elements of particular historical importance at the building?
As early as the 1690s, the cross vaults were built down in the basement, which today houses the hotel's relax, and forms part of the old city wall. Those who worked on the construction of carrying bricks were often women and were called wall snails. One of these women put her footprint, size 37, in a stone sitting on the wall in one of the arches for public viewing. Shortly after these arches had been built, the castle Tre kronor was ravaged by fire in 1697. To a large extent, the castle burned down, but Reisen's vault lay underground and thus survived well, despite its proximity to the castle.

Our conference room and separate chamber Per Brahe originates from the boat S/S Per Brahe that were built in 1908.
Are there any important guests or previous owners worth mentioning?
