To tap the full potential of this market segment , Louvre Hotels Group is banking on intrapreneurship , a method that generates out-of-the-box thinking by tapping new sources of development ideas , as well as Louvre ’ s clout in the fields of distribution , revenue management , marketing , communication , purchasing , technical , etc . Cyril Vaussard , cofounder of the Hôtels & Préférence chain and previously director , then regional director for a residential hotel brand , will lead this charge .
Vaussard said the brand requires a minimum 3-star classification and a minimum footprint of 21 square metres for the studios , with the kitchen in the corridor . He said the brand is suitable for new construction as well as conversion of old aparthotels and perhaps office buildings when the structure of the building allows it .
