Hotel de Pologne, Former hotel building in Leipzig, Germany

Hôtel de Pologne is a five-storey building at Hainstraße 16–18 with a thirteen-axis facade arranged in a 3-1-5-1-3 rhythm. The facade, remodeled by Arwed Roßbach in 1891–92, quotes Florentine Renaissance style: rusticated ground floor, a narrow cornice between the second and third floors, round-arched windows that shrink by floor, and paired arched windows with small columns on the mezzanine. A projecting dentil cornice tops it.

In 1819 the innkeeper Christian August Pusch bought the Gasthof Zum Goldenen Adler, recorded under that name since 1600, and in 1823 the Gasthof Zum Birnbaum two plots south, where King Stanislaus I Leszczyński had stayed in 1706. He renamed that inn Hôtel de Pologne in 1832 and in 1843 joined all three properties under the name, adding a decorated ballroom by Eduard Pötzsch. A fire on 29 August 1846, started by an employee smoking in the turpentine store, destroyed the houses and killed eight people; the new five-storey building with 130 rooms opened in 1848.

The name comes from King Stanisław Leszczyński, who stayed in the predecessor inn Zum Birnbaum in 1706; innkeeper Christian August Pusch renamed it Hôtel de Pologne in 1832. The two neo-baroque festival halls on the upper floor, designed by Ludwig Heim, held 1,500 guests. They now have their own entrance and are rented out separately.

The building at Hainstraße 16–18 is in active office use, and the two neo-baroque ballrooms on the upper floor have their own separate entrance and are marketed independently. The ground floor houses a Starbucks branch opened in 2024. Since the upper floors are working space, visitors should arrange access to the ballrooms in advance.

A plaque on the facade has commemorated since 1983 that Martin Luther stayed in 1519 at the predecessor inn Zum Birnbaum. The site's earlier guest, the Polish king Stanislaus I Leszczyński, lodged there in 1706 and gave the hotel its name.
