Grand Hôtel d'Houlgate, Historic monument in Houlgate, France.
The Grand Hôtel building extends along Baumier Street, featuring a central structure with brick pilasters and two prominent side pavilions topped by a domed rotunda.
Construction began in 1859 under architect Jacques Baumier's direction, with additions made by his son René-Jacques between 1896 and 1904, expanding to 350 rooms.
The building received official recognition as a historic monument in 2000, preserving its facade and roofing as key elements of Norman coastal heritage.
The former hotel now functions as residential apartments, offering direct access to the beach and nearby amenities including a miniature golf course.
During World War I, the grand structure served as a military hospital before its transformation into permanent residences following its closure in 1939.
