The Zimmermans, owners of La Colombe d’Or Hotel, announced the addition and renovation completion and set the hotel’s opening date for March 29, 2021. A glamorous art oasis in the eccentric Montrose neighborhood, international design team Rottet Studio reimagines the hotel interiors for a modern yet timeless and gracious Texas experience.
Originally built in 1923 as a residence for Houston’s Fondren family, the La Colombe d’Or Mansion was acquired in 1979 and transformed into a hotel featuring suites, a restaurant and bar, an art gallery and notorious Le Grand Salon de la Comtesse—a Rococo ballroom outfitted in English oak, gilded-frame mirrors and chandeliers once built for French royals in the 1730s and purchased by The Zimmermans in 1995. In a collaboration with global real estate firm Hines, the property was reimagined, and a high-rise named The Residences at La Colombe d’Or now stands adjacent to the Mansion. The result is a spectacular new destination hotel and residences that deliberately contrast in architectural styles but are effortlessly connected by timeless interior design.
An iconic luxury property owned by The Zimmermans for 40 years, La Colombe d’Or Hotel has served as a distinctive boutique hotel for the city of Houston. Over the last four decades, the hotel has provided a bespoke hospitality experience for presidents, politicians, celebrities and guests.
