A striking example of the sensitive integration of contemporary architecture in the historical fabric of the City

Because of the existing situation and the height of the existing administration building of Morland, the Hotel can be the only “high rise building” in the entire Maris giving spectacular views on the historical Paris.

The hotel Morland will have a mix of contemporary architecture for the extension and respectful conservation of the existing building including some of its important art installation.

This spectacular reuse of the historical building of Morland will give to Paris, on the seine river bank, one of the most striking example of the sensitive integration of contemporary architecture in the historical fabric of the City.

The hotel Morland as this major beneficiary of the coming urban revitalization of the East of the Marais. The Hotel Morland can play its role by revitalizing in a spectacular fashion the river bank and the Quay Henry IV. Most importantly at this stage, the hotel Morland can finally be the major beneficiary of this urban revitalization of the East of the Marais.

The 5/6 star hotel will offer more than 300 rooms of different size and volume, mixing single volume space and double volume, with spectacular views on the river bank and the historical city

• Each room will be located in the existing building, opening to extension, lounge, balcony, reading room, developed as a new architectural layer

• Large areas for reception, restaurant, shops and café will be developed at the ground level and at the second level of the project.

• The top floor of the central building on the 15th floor will host spectacular restaurant and hotel lounges with amazing views of Paris.

• A large garden is developed at the 3rd and 4th floor over the 2 courtyards providing outdoor areas, pools and terraces with the view of the quay Henry IV.
