Villa M: remember that hotel in paris , because it will be your next temptation in the french capital . Located in the Boulevard Pasteur , in Montparnasse , its vertical garden that covers the façade of the building makes it an accommodation with a singular conception.
With Groupe Pasteur Mutualite —an insurance and mutual services group with a wide range of activities— and, in particular, Thierry Lorente (Managing Director) and Amanda Lehman (Deputy General Director of the group), at the head of the project, Villa M establishes itself as a holistic refuge.
Thierry Lorente and Amanda Lehmann came up with the concept of Villa M.
Intended for both health professionals, travelers and locals, this wellness area seeks essential needs such as sleeping well, eating delicious, working, exercising, treating yourself, innovating, and even dreaming, are the coordinates of Villa M.
So in its 8,000 square meters we find a hotel and a restaurant , but also a training center, an innovation showroom, work and co-working spaces, a conference and business center, a care and prevention center, a concept store, and a boxing and fitness club.
Convened by Amanda Lehmann and Thierry Lorente, Philippe Starck , In collaboration with Triptyque Architecture , led the architectural design and management of the spaces , with the architecture always at the service of the landscape in pursuit of establishing a naturalist architectural manifesto there.
For Villa M. Philippe Starck , and architect-designers Olivier Raffaelli Y Guillaume Sibaud , were inclined to manage the disappearance of architecture in favor of nature , thanks to one Exterior facade fully planted.
The balconies of the rooms in Villa M.
So the Villa M building becomes the support vertical garden , which, depending on the season, will grow and occupy the entire façade, expanding the leitmotif of the vertical and medicinal forest.
Having been selected by the landscaper Paul Giorgeff —from the studio I place — so that they adapt to the climate, medicinal, perennial, herbaceous, fruit-bearing plants and other native species intermingle on the terraces, gardens and the façade of the place.
On the ground floor of the structure we find the electronic check-in/check-out, a personalized welcome, a open kitchen , large tables for guests, a bar and a exhibition gallery.
Three floors above, the streets begin to break through. 67 rooms and 6 suites of Villa M , each named after a woman or man who has left their mark on the history of medicine or science.
The jewel of Villa M, the Pasteur suite.
Although a good part of the rooms offer formidable views of Paris , and some of them even have a balcony or terrace, the jewel of Villa M is the Pasteur suite.
Located on the corner of the seventh floor, the suite is decorated with colossal windows, a double green terrace and a salon open to paris , with a vision that reveals the splendor of the Eiffel Tower , the Dôme des Invalides, the Montparnasse Tower and the evocative rooftops of the capital.
Those superlative views find a similar charm inside, which boasts bright rooms. “Staying at Villa M it means finding a cocoon of comfort and absolute calm, away from the hustle and bustle of urban life”.
Villa M restaurant.
The noble and sustainable materials, the harmonious tones and the eco-responsible products, in addition to wood and marble, bring together some of the most precious details chosen by Philippe Starck.
The hotel also makes its high-end amenities available: concierge service, treatment and massage rooms , and even a hairdresser and barbershop.
