After several years of extensive renovation, the H4 Hotel Wyndham Paris Pleyel Resort in Saint-Denis, Paris, opened its doors in July 2024. This modern, design-driven hotel, part of the H-Hotels Group, is situated between the Olympic Village and the Stade de France, making it a prime location for the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The hotel occupies the 140-metre-high Tour Pleyel, a notable architectural landmark in the Paris suburb. It boasts nearly 700 air-conditioned rooms that combine comfort with contemporary appeal, catering to a wide range of guests.
Merging design with safety and comfort
The H4 Hotel Wyndham Paris Pleyel seamlessly integrates innovative design with high-quality materials, ensuring that aesthetics and safety remain priorities. The bathrooms feature showers, and some include baths, all from Bette, with the addition of the highly slip-resistant BetteAnti-Slip Sense surface. This innovative surface enhances safety without sacrificing the bathroom’s sleek, glossy appearance.
BetteUltra shower trays: a core element of the design
Every room in the hotel is equipped with BetteUltra shower trays in pristine glossy white. Crafted from steel enamel, the precise industrial production of these shower trays blends perfectly with the hotel’s design aesthetic. The timeless, refined design of the BetteUltra trays includes tightly contoured 10-mm corner radii and flush-fitting waste covers, ensuring seamless integration into the overall interior concept.
Safety and aesthetic combined: invisible Anti-Slip technology
Bette’s BetteAnti-Slip Sense surface is said to enhance the safety of the shower trays without compromising their elegant finish. The surface’s high slip resistance is in compliance with evaluation group C of DIN 16165 and is only noticeable when body weight is applied to the wet surface. When dry, the surface feels no different from a traditional glazed surface.
This invisible anti-slip technology does not interfere with cleaning ease; in fact, BetteAnti-Slip Sense is highly resistant to wear, including abrasions and exposure to cleaning agents commonly used in shower areas. Bette also offers a 30-year guarantee on its bathroom products with the BetteAnti-Slip Sense surface.
Self-cleaning waste outlets for easy maintenance
The BetteSolid waste outlets, designed for self-cleaning, make maintaining the shower trays easy. These outlets prevent hair and debris from accumulating, allowing them to be washed away effortlessly with the water flow.
Baths featuring iconic design and practical functionality
In addition to the shower trays, many rooms at the H4 Hotel Wyndham Paris Pleyel are equipped with BetteStarlet baths, which also feature the BetteAnti-Slip Sense surface. These luxurious, glossy white baths bring both style and safety to the hotel’s bathrooms.
The BetteStarlet baths feature a minimalist design with a central waste outlet, making them perfect for comfortable bathing for two. The wide bath rim serves as a convenient armrest and provides ample space for toiletries. Crafted from impact-resistant, scratch-resistant, and heat-resistant glazed titanium steel, the baths can withstand accidental impacts from bottles or other objects and even the heat of candles, ensuring they remain in pristine condition over time.
A central hub for visitors and culture seekers
The H4 Hotel Wyndham Paris Pleyel is conveniently located near the new Saint-Denis Pleyel metro station, offering easy access for guests looking to explore Paris and its many cultural attractions. The 140-metre-high Tour Pleyel, originally designed in the 1970s by architects Bernard Favatier, Pierre Hérault, and Marcel Freva, stands as a symbol of Saint-Denis’ transformation from its industrial past into a vibrant hub of art and culture.
The hotel offers 697 rooms across a variety of categories, including “Comfort,” “Superior,” “Premium,” “Deluxe,” and “Junior Suite,” ranging in size from 18 to 37 square metres. A luxurious 129-square-metre presidential suite is located on the 37th floor. The hotel also features a 10,000-square-metre congress centre, multiple restaurants and bars, an executive lounge, and a fitness centre. Guests can enjoy panoramic views of Paris from the bar on the 40th floor or relax in France’s highest swimming pool.
The interior design of the H4 Hotel was conceived by the Parisian architecture firm Axel Schoenert Architects (ASA), who drew inspiration from the building’s industrial architecture, incorporating steel and glass elements. This industrial look is complemented by refined classic touches, such as French herringbone parquet floors and monochrome beds with structured headboards. The contemporary design is further enhanced by street-art-inspired furniture and mirrors framed with light bulbs, reflecting the urban cultural heritage of Saint-Denis.
