Budynek jest wpisany na Listę Światowego Dziedzictwa Kulturalnego i Przyrodniczego UNESCO wraz z trzema innymi brukselskimi domami zaprojektowanymi przez Hortę: Hotel Tassel (Rue Paul Emile Janson 6, z 1898 r.), Hotel Solvay (Avenue Louise 224, z 1894 r.) i Hotel van Eetvelde (Avenue Palmerston 4, z 1898 r.). W okresie art. nouveau, w latach 1893-1905, Horta zaprojektował ponad 40 budynków.
