Bar M of the EHL Hospitality Business School

Although it is located in the existing building, it has positioned itself as a pivotal point between the glass roof, an iconic meeting place on the new campus, and the ground floor of the M building. The new bar has replaced the old one, which has been moved to a space at the junction between the two entities forming the future Hotel school.

Its original shape, located between the two patios, has made it possible to create a link between the two entities and offers numerous possibilities for use. It offers a generous surface area to accommodate the increase in the number of visitors and students. The preparation and consumption areas have been greatly increased, making it easier for students to be served. The separation between the bar and the back office is achieved by a perforated wooden screen, which provides a glimpse of the patio in the background.

The bar is based on an original design that meets the demanding needs of its clientele and users. It is a place for expression for students in training and their teachers, and therefore had to offer a space and innovative and appropriate equipment, reflecting the level of requirement of the teaching at the Hotel school.

The new Bar M was built in two stages, in order to minimise the impact of the construction work on student life and the running of the school during the works. The right wing of the bar was completed in the summer of 2021 and the left wing the following year.
