Le Méridien Nice

A 1974 hotel on the Promenade des Anglais in Nice — 318 rooms and suites whose interiors no longer matched the contemporary traveller (competition for Covivio).

My role

Chargé de projet at Saguez & Partners / CV2A: architectural proposal and drawings through the APS, APD and APD PRO stages.

01 / Project

Context

Built in 1974 on the Promenade des Anglais, Le Méridien Nice holds a strategic position at the city's tourist heart. An important asset by scale and reputation, but with interiors no longer meeting the expectations of the contemporary traveller.

02 / Project

Two complementary scales

Developed for a competition, the project rethinks the interior identity at two complementary scales: the intimate scale of the 318 rooms and suites — comfort, atmosphere, individual experience — and the collective scale of reception and lobby, which carry the first impression and orientation.

The requalification of reception and lobby was strategic: turning arrival into a more fluid, representative experience through materials, lighting, furniture and spatial perception. For the rooms, a logic of repetition, cost control and feasibility proper to a large-scale hotel operation.

My role

As chargé de projet I contributed to the architectural proposal and the drawings through the French project stages — from preliminary to developed and technical design (APS, APD, APD PRO).
