The transformation of this iconic building into a high-end hotel is part of a commitment to preserving and enhancing its historical past. Architectural elements such as the wrought ironwork, the grand glass roof, and the impressive high ceilings are carefully restored and seamlessly integrated into the hotel's new design.
This approach brings the story of this former bank to life through materials, colors, and decorative elements. An atmosphere inspired by the building’s heritage immerses you in a setting where every detail is designed to offer you an exceptional stay.

A Century of History…
Rozenn Branellec Dumon, General Director of the group, brings a unique artistic vision to this project.
What you discover here is not just a hotel, but a true living space where the building’s history blends seamlessly with the establishment’s decor. As always with Oceania Hotels, Rozenn Branellec Dumon ensures that every project, down to the finest details, has a soul.
It all begins with a reinterpretation of the historic setting: the transformation of the former bank vault into a swimming pool is one of the highlights of this place—a nod to the bank’s past while offering an exceptional wellness space.
In this spirit, the harmony between old and new is essential. The use of high-quality materials, from refined fabrics to light fixtures designed in collaboration with our partner DesignHeure, is carefully curated with a precise and, above all, unique vision. We do not follow trends; instead, we create timeless and enduring atmospheres. This approach, favoring uniqueness over conformity, defines the very essence of Hôtel & Spa Oceania Les Augustins 4 Lille*.
A Unique, Multifaceted Experience
The hotel offers a variety of experiences, from relaxation to vibrant social interactions, thanks to its many facets. Whether guests are on a business trip or vacation, they will find spaces where they can truly feel at home. The banking theme, woven throughout the project, finds its most striking expression in the vault room—the true heart of the hotel—where former safes have been magnificently repurposed.
Oceania Les Augustins also stands out for its communal spaces. The grand marble and brass hall serves as a meeting and social hub, alongside the central bar. But there’s more: lounge areas, co-working spaces, and a fitness room enrich the guest experience, offering both professionalism and comfort.
The hotel’s location in the heart of Lille adds to its distinctive character. This long-term project breathes new life into a historic site while contributing to the city center’s vibrancy. The integration of local architectural elements—brick, cut stone, and historical design inspirations from the former bank—demonstrates a commitment to preserving and celebrating its heritage.
The Result of a Collective Effort
Every Oceania Hotels property is the result of a collective effort, where teams of architects, designers, and project managers work closely together to bring a shared vision to life. In Lille, the hotel is more than just a real estate project—it is a human adventure. And as with all the group’s projects, Rozenn Branellec Dumon pays close attention to the details that make all the difference.
