Paris, Apr 29 (EFE / EPA) .- (Camera: Marta Garde / Ian Langsdon) Film lovers in France, where cinemas have been closed since November due to the pandemic, have a space to fill the absence of the big screen in the recently opened Hotel Paradiso in Paris, the first of its kind and designed to make the most of the cinematic experience.The project of the French production company and distributor MK2, an emblem of independent cinema began to take shape about seven years ago, but its inauguration this March coincided in the middle of the uncertainty for the sector.FOOTAGE OF THE PARADISO HOTEL/CINEMA IN PARIS. SOUNDBITES OF NATHANAËL KARMITZ (in French), CO-LEADER OF THE MK2 CHAIN.Translation:1. It is the first cinema-hotel in two respects. It is the first conceived with a cinema and, something unique, in the room we are in, there is a real cinema in your room.2. There is a set of elements with which everything is designed so that it is not like watching something at home, so that it is a complete projection with a level of quality, programming and selection of films that you cannot find elsewhere.3. It is not a replacement for the movie theater, it is a complement, another way to experience movies.4. It is not a hotel to which we have added cinema, it is a hotel conceived around the cinematographic experience.5. You will find the cinema through a thousand little details. For example, the vintage telephone that you find in each room, an indirect tribute to Hollywood in the 50s, but above all two very important details: the hotel's phone number ends in 2001, and more importantly, if you want to call reception, for room service or an assistant to help you, you have to dial 007, and 007 comes to your room very quickly.6. If there are proposals in Spain we will be delighted to hear them because we are a true Franco-Spanish company, almost 50% of our activity today is done in Spain. Obviously, if there is an opportunity to develop this concept of Hotel Paradiso in Spain, we will study it with enthusiasm.

The concept vehicle not only embodies the Mercedes-Maybach design language, it also reflects the traditional brand values while continuing the successful Mercedes-Maybach story. True to the principle of creating ""the very best from the very best"", Mercedes-Maybach stands for the ultimate in luxury while uniting the perfection of Mercedes-Benz with the exclusivity of Maybach. Smooth, extravagant surfaces with no beads or sharp edges create an image of sporty elegance: the Vision Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury has a majestic look. With its balanced proportions, the vehicle has tremendous presence. The interior of the Vision Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury features an exciting contrast between high-level sportiness and luxurious spaciousness. This show car is the ultimate embodiment of a luxury dream automobile.
