The ambitious project of Quinquis #
Located in the heart of the charming town of Perros-Guirec, the Quinquis building, which has long served as a holiday center, will undergo a radical transformation. Pierre et Vacances is preparing to demolish the old complex to make way for modern aparthotels. The goal is to meet the growing demand for seasonal rentals on the famous Pink Granite Coast, thus offering holidaymakers accommodation close to beaches and services.
A swimming pool for the well-being of holidaymakers #
At the heart of this project, the presence of a swimming pool is an undeniable asset. This pool will be an ideal place of relaxation for families and couples looking to enjoy the Breton sun. However, the absence of a restaurant on site raises questions. Future residents will therefore have to explore nearby culinary options, which could influence their choice of destination.
The reactions of local hoteliers #
This initiative by Pierre et Vacances has not failed to raise concerns among hoteliers in the region. Many industry players are worried about the impact of this project on their business. They fear that the emergence of these new aparthotels may harm their clientele, who might choose to stay in this new establishment where the offer is considered more attractive.
The stakes for Perros-Guirec and its tourism #
Beyond the challenges faced by hoteliers, this transformation project could represent an opportunity for Perros-Guirec to enhance its tourist appeal. By bringing in a new accommodation offer, the town could attract a different audience, particularly families looking for a stay combining comfort and beach activities.
