    52 rooms in Montparnasse area themed on the ‘Roaring Twenties’.

    Hilton has opened the Niepce Paris Hotel, the first Curio Collection hotel to open in the French capital, taking the sub-brand’s global total to just shy of 50 locations.

     

    Located in the Montparnasse area of Paris, the hotel is situated a few metres from Montparnasse train station, giving guests easy access to the most iconic monuments and sites in the city.

    The hotel is themed around the ‘Roaring Twenties’ in a nod to one of the most influential photographers of the time – Janine Niepce, whose shots are featured in the hotel’s public areas, in the corridors and on ceiling displays.

    Guests can choose from 52 rooms, including three suites, featuring tablet control systems and high-speed internet, with the suites also including a separate living area.

    “We are delighted to welcome Niepce Paris Hotel to Curio Collection by Hilton, as we make our debut in the iconic city of Paris” said Mark Nogal, Global Head, Curio Collection by Hilton. “The opening of Niepce Paris highlights our commitment to expand our collection in key destinations around the world, and we look forward to providing our customers with an unforgettable experience in the district of Montparnasse.”

    The hotel also caters to small meetings with a 73-square metre conference room with a 55-inch flat screen, wireless video projector and Wi-Fi. There’s also a ‘wellness area’ for those looking to stay fit during their stay, with a high-tech gym.

    “Last year, Paris welcomed 16 million travellers, a record number of visitors for the past 10 years. In light of this increase in tourism, we are very excited to develop our portfolio of hotels in the city and we are delighted to open our first hotel for the Curio Collection by Hilton brand in the capital city”, says Simon Vincent, Executive Vice President and President, Europe, Middle East and Africa.

    Niepce Paris Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton is also part of Hilton Honors, the loyalty program for Hilton’s 14 hotel brands.
