POUENAT and the new Hôtel Metropolitan
Radisson Blu recently opened a new hotel in Paris located within walking distance from the Trocadéro and close to the Champs Elysées. The Metropolitan’s interiors display modern lines in a cosy environment. But more exclusively, the hotel bears a signature suite with an amazing view of the Eiffel Tower.
To turn the 19th century Haussmannian town house into a haven for business travellers and jetsetters, Radisson Blu appointed interior architect and designer François Champsaur.
Champsaur’s imagination was largely taped into, and Le Figaro’s culinary critique François Simon,
comments positively. Simon appreciates particularly how the entire hotel offers a welcoming environment in which nothing is overbearing.
Champsaur’s level of attention to detail could only be paired by the suppliers he selected. POUENAT Ferronier, a high-end metal workshop founded in 1880, was brought in to manufacture the architectural elements, furniture and lighting fixtures imagined by Champsaur. The Mediterranean brasserie, the cocktail lounge, the spa, the rooms and the suites are all equipped by POUENAT.
