Designing tomorrow’s stays, with purpose. 🌍🌊 At Novotel, innovation has been part of our story since the 1960s, not just in how our hotels look and feel, but in how they respond to the world around us. Today, that spirit lives on through our commitment to sustainability and ocean preservation, in partnership with WWF-France. Last week at MAISON&OBJET in Paris, we proudly unveiled the winners of the 2025 Accor Design Awards, where interior design students from around the world reimagined the Novotel guestroom of tomorrow – a space that enhances comfort while lowering environmental impact and protecting the oceans. The ceremony opened with inspiring words from our Head Judges Isabel Blanco and Beatriz Blanco Rico of BURONDO Design Studio, alongside Bittor SANCHEZ MONASTERIO, Global VP Design, Midscale & Economy Brands at Accor; Damien Perrot, Global Chief Design, Technical Services & Innovation Officer, Premium, Midscale & Economy Brands at Accor; Jean-Yves MINET, Global Brand President, Midscale & Economy Brands at Accor; Aurélie Pontal, Head of Partnerships at WWF-France; as well as representatives from our valued sponsors. Together, we then had the pleasure of celebrating this year’s winners: • First Prize – "Polé Polé" by Coline Robilliart & Corentin Rolland • Second Prize – "Chowa" by Nora Chaumont & Fanny Monteyne • Third Prize – "Rosae" by Chloé Maudet & Erwan LOIRAT • Head Judges’ Prize – "Algae" by Rosalía Ordóñez Saldaña & Juan Bueno • Public Choice Award – "Whispers of the Ocean" by Camila Gonçalves & Andrea Felip Congratulations to all the winners, students of L'École de design Nantes Atlantique and IED Madrid for their inspiring projects helping shape a sustainable hospitality for tomorrow. A heartfelt thank you to our founding sponsors Roca Group and LAUFEN Bathrooms, our sponsors Flos, JVD Products that care, Ligne Roset Contract, LedsC4, and our partner MAISON&OBJET, as well as our Head Judges, jury members and teams who made this edition such a success. 🔗 Discover more about the event and the projects here: https://lnkd.in/eu7cg5Bb #AccorDesignAwards #DesignCompetition #Accor #Novotel

Congratulations, Prestigious and proud moment for our Honorable and humble Novotel family.
Congratulations to all the winners for their inspiring designs!
Proud to see Novotel once again at the forefront of design and sustainability. The creativity, talent, and innovation shown by this year’s students are truly inspiring - proof that the future of hospitality is in good hands. Their ideas remind us that when we put people, purpose, and the planet at the heart of design, we create hospitality that is not only relevant today but transformative for tomorrow.
Bonjour, Je propose des visites virtuelles 3D immersives qui permettent à vos clients de découvrir vos chambres et espaces avant même leur arrivée. C’est un excellent moyen d’augmenter vos réservations et de vous démarquer de la concurrence. Souhaitez-vous que je vous montre un exemple ?
An inspiring edition of the Accor Design Awards! These student-led projects reflect the power of design to rethink hospitality through sustainability and innovation.
Designing tomorrow’s stays starts with purpose. But tomorrow’s reputation is built today, on every guest review, every shared experience, every story told online. Sustainability and innovation deserve visibility.
