Rue Delhasse et rue Dagly

In the past, a large number of hotels catered for the tourists who visited Spa. There are two major 18th century hotels in this street: the Hôtel de Bourbon and the Hôtel d'Irlande. They date from the second half of the 18th century and have been repainted pale yellow.Question 25. What number does the old Hôtel de Bourbon bear? In what year was it built?This three-storey, five-bay mansion is a double-barrel building, with two rows of rooms distributed by a central corridor. In the case of double-family homes, the façade is symmetrical and always has an odd number of bays. The central bay, which houses the entrance, is slightly overhang. It is bounded on either side by the full height of the pilasters with refrets (slightly projecting pillars with regular horizontal slits), as are the corners of the façade. Here too, an attractive balcony surmounts the entrance. Its wrought iron railing bears the name of the hotel.Question 26. There are other old hotels in rue Dagly. What are their names?Dormer windows illuminate the attics (interior spaces under the roof) of the two former hotels. The roofs of the two buildings are both covered in slate, but the shape of the roofs is different. Number 32 has a gable roof. Number 30 has a broken roof. It has two different slopes on the same side, separated by a ridge.The route ends at the end of the rue Dagly to join the Pouhon Pierrele-Grand, another of Spade's great springs.ANSWERS 25. At number 32, the former Hôtel de Bourbon was built in 1774.26. In Rue Dagly, you will also find the Hôtel de Suède and the Hôtel d'Autriche, two 18th century buildings.
