History & cultural connections
The history of the Hôtel Rivié
The Hoxton occupies the former Hôtel Rivié. Thomas de Rivié (1653–1732) made a fortune supplying horses to the army of Louis XIV, and in 1704 he bought the office of secrétaire du roi, a post that led to noble rank. He later lived in a house on rue du Sentier and died there in 1732.[1]
Thomas de Rivié's nephew, Étienne de Rivié, probably rebuilt the house between 1733 and 1739. Recent research attributes the design to the architect Nicolas d'Orbay. The carved decoration on the street portal and façades, including a central cartouche and brackets shaped like lions' mouths, is attributed to the ornamental sculptor Nicolas Pineau.[1][2]
In the 19th century the Sentier became the textile district of Paris. Around 1833 the textile merchants Charles Legentil and Casimir Chevreux bought the house, added a storey and built over the courtyard and garden. Shops, offices and warehouses used the site until the middle of the 20th century.[1]
In the early 2000s redevelopment plans threatened the house, including a proposed extension of the Grand Rex cinema behind it. In March 2001 the French state listed the street façades, roofs and interior decoration as a historic monument. After a full restoration, The Hoxton opened here in September 2017.[1][2]
