MEININGER Hotel Paris Porte de Vincennes

The MEININGER hotel group is celebrating a major milestone in its growth and expansion strategy, entering the French hotel market with its fifth opening this year: the MEININGER Hotel Paris Porte de Vincennes. The project is being brought forward with French development partner Covivio.

The opening marks the beginning of MEININGER's strategy to become the market leader in French hybrid hotel market. Three more national hotel projects are currently under development in Lyon, Bordeaux and Marseille, which will combine MEININGER's typical service and comfort of an international budget hotel with exceptional facilities and a flexible room structure that is unique in the industry.

Stylishly-elegant new building with comfort and service

The MEININGER Hotel Paris Porte de Vincennes will become one of the group's flagship properties, with 249 rooms, 946 beds in total, a gross floor area of 8,000 sqm and a diverse food and beverage offer. A 24-hour reception, lobby, lounge, breakfast room, outdoor terrace, bar and the MEININGER-typical guest kitchen and game zone will all be found on the ground floor.

The project is being brought forward in partnership with Covivio, a European leader in hotel investment and owner of the building on Boulevard Carnot. "We are very proud to support MEININGER in its first French hotel and as it grows across Europe. It offers a hybrid product that has never been seen in France with one concept for different types of customers. We are confident in the success of this new innovative offer in Paris," comments Dominique Ozanne, Deputy CEO of Covivio.

Architecturally, the new building bears the signature of Daniel Vaniche (DVVD Architectes) who designed a dynamic, multi-layered hotel building that offers state-of-the-art environmentally friendly design and is a vibrant addition to the surrounding area. The building's rooms, facilities and installations are all designed to ensure a smooth day-to-day operation. The interior design, by Axel Schoenert Architects, is inspired by the French capital itself. From Bohemian culture to the formal gardens emblematic of the city, Parisian themes are recreated in the hotel's decor, colour palette and materials. The elegant, high quality furnishings create an inviting, cosy atmosphere, and on the ground floor guests can expect a stylish, light-flooded, spacious lounge.
