Hotel Bristol

When it closed in 1916, its name was fought over, and finally won by Hippolyte Jammet,[3] who opened Hôtel Le Bristol Paris in nearby Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, today one of the city's five-star palace hotels.

According to his biographer: "So widely famed was the Bishop as a traveller, and so great his reputation as a connoisseur of all good things, that Lord Bristol's hotel...came to be the best known and regarded in every city or town where he sojourned and was thus the precursor of the Hotels Bristol to be found all over Europe.

"[4] Lord Bristol died in Italy at the start of the Napoleonic wars (1803–15), which interrupted the Grand Tour.

The Bristol in Paris was one of many opened in the ensuing peace, hoping to re-establish the Continental tourist trade.

Modern hotels to use the name include those in Frankfurt, San Diego and Gurgaon, India.
