About the Fauchere The Hotel Fauchere was opened in the mid-19th century by Louis Fauchere, the Swiss-born French-speaking master chef at New York City’s world-famous Delmonico’s restaurant. Run by the Fauchere family for 125 years, the Fauchere guest book registry reads as a veritable “Who’s Who” of the 19th and 20th centuries including such luminaries as Robert Frost, Sarah Bernhardt, President Theodore Roosevelt, President Franklin Roosevelt, President John F. Kennedy, General William Tecumseh Sherman, Franz Liszt, Jr., and captains of industry such as Henry Ford, the Carnegies and the Rockefellers. Early film pioneer D.W. Griffith shot several of his silent epics in the area, and was thus a regular of the Fauchere, along with many early stars of the silver screen, including Dorothy and Lillian Gish, Pearl White, Mary Pickford and Charlie Chaplin.
