The hotel star
Skypie
Orange male cat, 4 years old, official mascot of Hôtel du Marché and unmissable personality of passage du Marché.
His story
It all started four years ago, when a small ginger kitten appeared in passage du Marché, drawn by the warmth and activity of the hotel. The team immediately adopted him — or perhaps it was he who adopted us.
Named Skypie, in reference to his bouncy and mischievous personality, he quickly became the soul of the place. Curious, sociable and affectionate, he greets travellers at reception, slips through the corridors, and takes his nap on the terrace of Café L'Ateapique.
Guests often return to Hôtel du Marché not only for the comfort of the rooms or the charm of the neighbourhood, but also to find Skypie — who always remembers regulars with a welcoming purr.
