360°: the global hospitality news round-up, 13.11.2026 | From Marseille to Manila via Dublin and Quang Tri

🔎 Trend of the day: buildings given a second life. A legendary restaurant changing hands, a royal barracks in search of an investor, a former industrial site, a one-time health retreat, a 1959 modernist hotel and abandoned building sites in Vietnam: everywhere, hospitality is reinventing itself on existing assets rather than on greenfield land.

The establishment, which has 16 sea-view suites, will keep its name and close for a year of works. The chef stays on as special adviser to the family, which already owns the Yaca in Saint-Tropez. #LePetitNice #Marseille #Gastronomy
