Amongst the personalities who were welcomed here, we remember a famous painter and master of surrealism - Max Ernst, the versatile genius Jean Cocteau, the most popular queen of the American cinema of that time - Mary Pickford, the journalist and writer Elsa Maxwell, Gabriele D'Annunzio, the pianist Arthur Rubenstein, Princess Winnie De Polignac.
