As in every Handwritten Collection property, Hotel Maison Louise shares a singular passion through its very walls…
Its story? It’s that of François-Xavier Bourgeois, passionate about adventure and the art of hospitality—the story of a man who, since childhood, has dreamed of freedom, wide-open spaces, and pushing beyond his limits.
For several years, he lined up at the start of the legendary Paris–Dakar as an amateur co-driver. An intense experience he never forgot—and one he has subtly infused into this house.
But here you’ll find no flashy décor or heavy-handed references. Maison Louise is an elegant, welcoming place where this passion for elsewhere reveals itself to guests in the details.
Maison Louise is a unique property that moves to the rhythm of the North. To set off and discover the Capital of Flanders, simply step out onto the mythical Rue de Gand—an artery pulsing with Flemish memories and Lille’s legendary conviviality. Historic façades, cobblestones, and estaminets wafting gentle aromas immerse you in Lille’s most typical neighborhood.
Here, surrounded by vibrant energy, you stroll, you savor, and you stay at Maison Louise.
Coming by car and eager to soak up this distinctive atmosphere?
If you're arriving by public transport, Maison Louise is around a 15-minute walk from Lille Flandres and Lille Europe stations, and about a 15-minute drive from Lille–Lesquin Airport.
