history of this hotel

In 2006 while wandering in Paris, I accidentally ran across a plaque on the hotel where the Treaty of Paris was signed (the one recognizing American independence). The American signatories were John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and John Jay.

The Treaty was ratified in Annapolis, and Adams, Franklin, and Jay came to the restaurant in this hotel to celebrate. The restaurant has been called The Treaty of Paris ever since.

However, hotel management made a questionable decision recently in putting a Starbucks in the basement.
