At a height of 140 meters, the Concorde La Fayette dominates the French Capital and crowns the International Centre of Paris. It was the first skyscraper to be built in Paris and the first IGH (great height tower hotel) in Europe. From its opening in 1974, the Concorde La Fayette was one of the most technologically advanced hotels in the world – a position that it has maintained thanks to a continuous programme of investment and improvement. Most recently this has involved extensive restoration costing more than 20 million Euros, which has been carried out under the guidance of the hotel’s general manager. Over 1,200m of suites, 1,390m of bedrooms, 1,800m of corridors and 2,000m of kitchens have been renovated. Work has also been carried out to the Hall and to the exterior of the building, including the car park. Throughout this activity, which took place between September 2000 and April 2002, the hotel remained opened and maintained its usual high levels of service.
