AC Hotels By Marriott Signs First Hotel in France

Marriott has signed the 143-room Elysee Palace Hotel in Nice, which will be rebranded AC Hotel Nice following an extensive renovation.

The hotel, which joins over 80 existing AC Hotels by Marriott throughout Spain, Italy and Portugal, is expected to open in early 2013 under a management agreement with SNC Hoche Promotion.

Nestled along the south-west coast of France in the world-renowned Cote d’Azur region, the picturesque city of Nice attracts visitors from around the world in search of relaxation and inspiration. With a location in the city center of Nice, the AC Hotel Nice will be situated within a stone’s throw of the old town and a mere 50 meters from the magnificent blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea.

“We are thrilled to announce the expansion of our AC Hotels by Marriott brand in to France,” said Amy McPherson, president and managing director for Marriott International in Europe. “We see tremendous opportunity for the brand here and are aggressively pursuing numerous development opportunities for AC throughout Europe and Latin America.”

The AC Hotel Nice will offer 143 guestrooms boasting contemporary design, plush bedding, gleaming hardwood floors and complimentary mini-bar.

With a lively rooftop terrace featuring an outdoor swimming pool and restaurant offering panoramic views of Nice and the Mediterranean, the hotel is set to become one of the most stylish addresses in the city.

Guestrooms in AC Hotels by Marriott feature a contemporary look and feel with crisp white bedding, hardwood floors, modern bathrooms and free mini-bar.
