BridgeStreet Launches the First Mode Aparthotel in Paris
巴黎BridgeStreet推出Mode Aparthotel公寓式酒店
The Paris location is in the heart of the 16th arrondissement. Close to the Arc de Triumph and nestled in a quiet street off Avenue Victor Hugo, Mode Aparthotel comprises two restored 19th century, neo-renaissance buildings with a brand-new building adjacent to a courtyard.
BridgeStreet introduced a new aparthotel experience this month in Paris called Mode Aparthotel. The concept combines the space and freedom of apartment living, together with exceptional 24/7 hospitality and facilities – alongside the advanced technology and comfort demanded by today's business traveler. Mode is a concept that is redefining the extended stay model by inviting guests to feel like they're a part of a local community and treating them as if they were home – wherever they are.
"Business travel today is catching up to the growing demands of a new generation of business traveler. New technology and duty of care must be considered at any great property – that's a given – but culture and authenticity matter and Mode embraces the very best of Paris. We're tremendously proud of creating this experience and excited to share it with travelers around the world," said BridgeStreet's Chief Operations Officer, Brian Proctor.
The Paris location is in the heart of the 16th arrondissement. Close to the Arc de Triumph and nestled in a quiet street off Avenue Victor Hugo, Mode Aparthotel comprises two restored 19th century, neo-renaissance buildings with a brand-new building adjacent to a courtyard. The interior spaces are classic and modern in harmony – with specially-commissioned artworks inspired by the city throughout the public spaces, studios and apartments.
In addition to the modern amenities you'll find at any accommodation (high speed Wi-Fi, guest lounge, 24/7 concierge) the 48 purpose-built studios and apartments are outfitted as an apartment might be. Dedicated working space, a kitchenette, crockery and cookware are all included. A lounge area provides a real sense of generosity and care – important for any traveler, business or otherwise, hoping to find comfort on their travels.
The immediate area around Mode Arc de Triomphe boasts some of the capital's best boutiques, stores, restaurants, museums, galleries, international schools and places of learning. The property is also conveniently placed close to corporate headquarters of the some of the leading names in business, finance, industry and fashion, as well as numerous embassies, consulates and missions. Mode is minutes from the local Metro station, 15 minutes from Gare du Nord, and 35 minutes from Charles de Gaulle International Airport.
The ability to build these unique properties in any city center is owed to Mode's attractive business model. By using prized existing structures – often vacant or underused – developers can build practically and efficiently, still preserving the special characteristics of a city's history.
"To adapt and provide unique experiences demanded by Modern, savvy travelers, we're continuing to target global hot spots, like Paris and Edinburgh, with retrofitted buildings using unique design aesthetics. It presents rare and unique building opportunities – perfect for travelers seeking those same experiences," said Steve Burns, BridgeStreet Managing Director of EMEA & APAC.

Denver’s Oxford Hotel Completes Property-Wide Renovation
丹佛的牛津酒店大翻新
The Oxford Hotel, a historic property in the heart of Denver’s LoDo district, recently completed a major renovation designed to celebrate the hotel’s rich past while enhancing the authentic urban experience sought by today’s modern travelers.
The refresh included updating the hotel’s lobby and 80 guestrooms with a lighter and brighter overall design, featuring fresh white and gray tones complemented by pops of vibrant blue and rich emerald green. The original antique pieces in the guestrooms have been mixed with contemporary pieces along with new drapes, bedding, and light fixtures.
The Oxford’s 10,000 square feet of meeting and event space has new carpet, lighting, wall coverings, and furniture. A popular destination for Denver urban weddings and corporate events, The Oxford offers three ballroom spaces including the Grand Ballroom and Oxford Theater, which are both housed in a restored carriage house next to the hotel and have capacities of up to 240 people, along with the Sage Room, which has large windows overlooking 17th Street and can host up to 100 people for a cocktail reception.
The Oxford Club, Spa & Salon—the hotel’s full-service day spa, hair salon, and fitness center—upgraded its locker rooms and treatment rooms as part of the renovation. The Club offers an array of fitness equipment for resistance training and cardiovascular health, as well as a studio for Pilates, Yoga, and additional group classes.
Last fall, modern steakhouse Urban Farmer, a concept by the co-founder of Sage Restaurant, Group Peter Karpinski, opened adjacent to The Oxford. Helmed by Executive Chef Chris Starkus, Urban Farmer’s seasonally-driven menu highlights nose-to-tail cuts of naturally-raised meat, including a communal charcuterie station. The Urban Farmer beverage program complements the whole-farm fare by highlighting early-American cocktails made with Colorado spirits, alongside local Denver craft beers and a curated wine list.
The Oxford is also home to Denver’s Art Deco martini bar, the Cruise Room. Modeled after a bar in the Queen Mary, the Cruise Room was the first Denver bar to open after Prohibition was repealed in 1933. Guests of The Oxford can enjoy the hotel’s complimentary Bourbon Hour offered twice nightly, where Denver’s Laws Whiskey and other local artisanal spirits are poured.
Originally opened in 1891, the hotel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Its collection of classic Western art has been revived and re-hung with new frames selected by Denver’s NINE dot ARTS. The Oxford recently earned a Four Diamond rating from AAA and was named one of the “Top Hotels in Colorado” on the 2017 Conde Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards.
