The Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani has purchased the Hôtel Lambert. Designed by Louis Le Vau in 1640, the property, which sits at the tip of the Ile Saint-Louis, had been the Paris residence of Baron Guy de Rothschild, who died earlier this year, and his late second wife, society queen Marie-Hélène, since 1975, reports W Magazine.
