 Hi Hotel, Nice

     
Check in Show calendar Check out Show calendar Adults Children
HI is a new up-market hotel concept that marks a new departure from traditional luxury standards. Just 200 meters from the Mediterranean beachfront and the Promenade Des Anglais, HI invites you to enjoy the latest in contemporary living. HI was designed and invented by Matali Crasset and consists of 9 concepts, 38 rooms, the Happy Bar and HI Food.

Each of the 9 room concepts goes beyond decorative themes; these are areas to be lived in and experienced as alternatives to your everyday codified areas. The rooms become structures designed to allow micro-events in relation to each specific setting. The bar at the heart of the hotel is created around a suspended "nacelle", massive yet light, suggesting a modern alcove.

It organizes the entire space, filtering light coming in from both the street and the atrium garden. At night the atmosphere turns festive with lighting effects and the "nacelle" comes to life with live DJs (sound design by F-Communications, Lauren Garnier´s electronic music label) and video screenings.

The organic canteen is open 24 hrs a day and offers organic products, breakfasts, brunches, vegetarian plates and diet snacks. This is a restaurant where you eat healthy and simply prepared dishes served in a playful way. Enjoy your meal at the communal guest table or in the patio garden, a real cocoon surrounded by plants.
