Dutch hospitality brand citizenM (the M stands for Mobile, as in ‘Mobile Citizen’) recently opened its third location in Paris near the Gare de Lyon train station. In similar fashion with its sister properties, the new hotel incorporates art and technology into the hotel, offering travelers a modern yet comfortable place to call home for a few days without breaking the bank.
What distinguishes the citizenM brand from other hotels is that they offer smartly designed accommodations with thoughtful, innovative technology at an affordable price. Upon arrival, guests can initiate their stay at the self check-in desk and then continue into the living rooms. Like all citizenM spaces, the living rooms are designed so that guests can work, rest, meet and play. Dozens of fixtures in a variety of shapes and sizes light up the room where you’ll find a bespoke carpet designed to evoke the ticking clock of the Gare de Lyon station, furniture from citizenM’s official furniture partner Vitra, and citizenM’s signature black cabinets filled with quirky objects from all over the world, as if you’re in the living room of your favorite globe-trotting friend.
