A Friendly Moment

Have a drink at the "Le Montijo" bar

The Aigle Noir Hotel Fontainebleau - MGallery has always been an epicurean establishment at heart. In 2021, this space could not but be redesigned in its entirety to restore all its letters of nobility. The Honesty Bar has thus been replaced by the "The Montijo beautiful, neoclassical, intimate and wonderfully comfortable.

Did you know that " Le Montijo is the historic name of the bar in the MGallery L'Aigle Noir hotel. The idea was to pay tribute to Napoleon III's love of Eugénie de MontijoHis wife was only 26 years old when they met (45 years old for the latter). Napoleon III explained at the time that he had no choice but to marry for love, after meeting the woman considered to be one of the most beautiful in the country! "I come, therefore, gentlemen, to say to France: I have preferred a woman whom I love and respect to an unknown woman whose alliance would have had advantages mixed with sacrifices. Without showing disdain for anyone, I give in to my inclination, but after consulting my reason and my convictions", he declared.
