| | Hotel Le Parc Joins Marriott International’s Renaissance Brand Portfolio in Paris | | 2007-09-27 03:24:00 | | Almost a century-old, the Le Parc Hotel was formed by the merging of two main buildings and annexes. The first, at 55/57 Avenue Raymond Poincare, was built in 1912 and immediately became the residence of choice for the elite of Parisien society of the time. The second, the Hotel Particulier at Number 59, former residence of Alfred Nobel, is older, having been rebuilt in 1910 in the Art Nouveau style by architects Charles Letrosne and Camille Garnier, and holds a partial listing in the listings of French historical monuments. Its lush garden at the rear of the hotel is surrounded by buildings that previously housed the bronze and glassware workshops of the famous jeweler Bagues.

| | | | Fletch's Favored Five: Renaissance Films | | 2007-07-11 17:50:00 | | I figure its high time I class up this joint, and what better way to do so than to honor some films that have gone beyond their appreciation of film stock and enriched our lives with that more respected medium - painting. Keep in mind, I'm no art expert, and I don't know much, but I know what I like...While recently re-watching The Royal Tenenbaums, I was able to fall in love again with the Miguel Calderon painting to your right (and its complement - not shown) that is prominent in one of my favorite scenes. I'd rather not spoil it, so if you haven't seen the film - shame on you, first of all, as it's one of the best of the last 15 years - do so immediately and pay particular attention to a scene between Luke and Owen Wilson that takes place in Owen's characters' apartment.Some other objects of my affection:Much as I'm busying classing up the joint, John Hughes did so some twenty years ago with Ferris Buehler's Day Off.

| | | Venice, Renaissance Art, and the Police | | 2007-05-12 07:00:03 | |
The following journal entry was written Friday, July 24, 1998:
With no air conditioning, and five people in one room, last night was hot and uncomfortable. I slept well, especially after taking some cold medicine procured at a local pharmacia. Today, I learned our stay in Venice would only last two nights. For this reason, I set out to see some major attractions. But first we needed to find a cheaper hotel/hostel to stay in. After a failed attempt at this, we returned to the Hotel Leonardo and got ready to check out. As we dropped the key off, we decided to bargain, by quoting the 29,000 lire price of a room we didn’t have. Since the guy knew he was ripping us off already, it didn’t seem hard to bring the price down to 28,000 lire per person, for one room (down from 40,000 lire).
After this burden was lifted, I led the group to the Accademia which housed 15th-18th century Italian Art. The place wasn’t air conditioned, like I had expected. Therefore, I continued to sw | | By: GoBackpacking | | |
