Marriott signs deal for two hotels in Les Mercuriales
Marriott International has signed a deal with Omnam Group to develop two hotels in Paris’ Les Mercuriales; a pair of mixed-use urban towers in the Bangolet neighbourhood. Scheduled to open in the coming years, each tower will house a Marriott-branded hotel, with a 570-key Sheraton property occupying one and a 272-key Moxy in the other. The dual-branded development will offer guests two distinct experiences, with Sheraton focused on connection, personalisation and service, whilst Moxy seeks to attract a younger, more playful demographic.
Xavier Grange, Vice President Development at Marriott International, France & Benelux comments: “We’re delighted to continue our collaboration working with the Omnam Group after signing the development in 2017 of the W hotel in Rome, and we look forward to creating yet another exciting hospitality experience together. Bagnolet acts as a gateway to the city, providing our guests with fantastic access to enjoy all Paris has to offer and is a strategic destination in which to expand our European portfolio. Marriott International has a current footprint of more than forty hotels in France across 13 of its brands and we continue to see new growth opportunities.”
Once complete, Les Mercuriales will seek to establish itself as a gathering place for business and leisure guests, as well as locals of the emerging area. The Sheraton will house a restaurant, café and rooftop bar, with the Moxy incorporating a lounge bar. Both will feature event spaces, ballrooms and conference centres, with a plaza connecting the towers containing F&B and retail outlets.
“We have an excellent and longstanding collaboration with Marriott International,” adds David Zisser, Founder and CEO Omnam Group. “Together, we are looking forward to bringing energy and buzz into the Bagnolet area. What Les Mercuriales, the Sheraton and Moxy brands have in common is that they offer such a well-rounded entertainment programme outside of just guestrooms, leading to an unforgettable experience for travellers and Parisians.”
