Hi Hotel

HI hotel in Nice, is a deluxe hotel located just steps from the Mediterranean Ocean and the Promenade Anglais in the popular tourist town of Nice, France. The capital of the Riviera, the city is the largest city between Genoa and Marseille and attracts visitors from all over the world. Designed my Matalia Crasset, France's leading young designer, the HI hotel is a bold departure from traditional accommodations. The hotel's name derives from the red mark, or hi, found on koi carp, and goldfish can be found in each guestroom. Nearby attractions include Musée Masséna, Musée des Beaux-Arts Jules-Chéret, the Cathedral of St Nicholas and the Boulevard Victor-Hugo. The fun begins as guests walk through the purple-tinted glass front door.
Crasset used a palette of raspberry, pistachio, vanilla and chartreuse for the interior. A mezzanine stacked with books donated by museums, galleries and publishers overlooks the double-height bar and dining area, where five-star chef Alain Llorca's cuisine is served in petits bocaux, or small rubber-sealed jars. Visitors choose their meals from a self-service counter in the kitchen. At the far end of the restaurant is "la nacelle", a birch plywood structure that surrounds guests in a light, protective embrace, and resembles the basket of a hot-air balloon. At night, the music volume goes up. Videos and lights turn the hotel ground floor into a nightclub.
HI hotel, Nice, offers 38 guest rooms with nine unconventional design concepts. The rooms follow four color themes, and each has a large walk-in, free-form shower, in some cases behind the beds, which are low on the floor on wooden platforms. The hotel's pool is on the roof with a splendid view of the city, the Alps and the Mediterranean Ocean. A Hamman with musical relaxation and massage rooms is also available for the guests. The beach is set with chic loungers and divided into zones for famil ies, groups of friends and those in search of peace and relaxation.
