Paris Marriott Champs-Élysées Hotel Unveils Couture-Inspired Renovation
Led by London-based design studio Muza Lab, the renovation reimagines the historic Champs-Élysées address with a concept inspired by Parisian haute couture. The transformation introduces redesigned guestrooms and suites, refreshed social spaces, and updated dining venues that blend classic French elegance with contemporary luxury.
Michel brings more than 25 years of experience with Marriott International across Europe, including leadership roles in Paris such as General Manager of the Renaissance Paris Nobel Tour Eiffel Hotel and involvement in the opening of the Courtyard by Marriott Paris Gare de Lyon.
His appointment comes as the hotel positions itself more competitively in Paris’s luxury hospitality market. Located on the iconic Champs-Élysées, the newly transformed property aims to attract both international leisure travellers and high-end business guests seeking a modern Parisian stay.
