Matthieu Chavanel is launching Vilaj, a new hotel concept wishing to reinvent the conviviality of a village square in the heart of the territories by mixing different types of activities within the same place.
It is about (re)creating an innovative living space in the heart of the city, where residents and travellers can meet. Each Vilaj will be the ambassador of local identity through its activities, its local supply strategy and the very appearance of each of the buildings which will take on the specific heritage of the territory. Accompanied by EXTENDAM, the initiators of the concept are betting on a daring renewal of the French accommodation offer, adapted to changing public expectations.
