In 2008, Le Soir moved out of its offices and BESIX acquired the building with the intention of developing a new office building there via Royale 120, a company guided by BESIX RED. However, a crisis on the Brussels office market forces BESIX RED to examine other potential uses for the building. They opt for the hotel business. End of 2010, an agreement is signed with Motel One. Motel One is not a motel group, but rather a chain of low-price hotels. The brand responds to the new market demand in terms of rates, innovative design, quality and service. This ‘budget’ hotel concept offers several advantages: being in the heart of the city and working in synergy with it, it does not need to provide either conference rooms or restaurant.
