Point WC, l'escale bien-être (the well-being rest stop) Luxury public toilets. The main website (in French).

I wandered into this place at 26 Champs Elysees last week, after asking at FDR metro station where the nearest public toilet was. My general impressions:
- expensive (1 euro, compared to 20-40 cents in most places)
- very very clean
- nicely decorated
- a good place to visit when in need of a toilet

From a description here (about halfway down the page)
Each bathroom has a different theme: classic chic, ethnic, zen, high-tech, etc. This works well to display products by POINTWC's sponsor: the Roca-Laufen Group, one of the world's largest manufacturers of sanitary ware and tiles.

Super. Je pisse par-là, ça fait chic.

Psst -- roryk -- sentcha an email...

okay, a few pointers:

- what does the provision of "luxury public toilets" say about humankind in these, the mid-twenty-noughties? are there two publics whose excretions cannot mix?

- is this form of marketing (termed brand spaces in the final link) a good idea? what are the potential benefits and costs involved?

- how much would you pay for a luxury public toilet?

- is roryk just jumping on the pisser bandwagon, or did he really think that this might be worth a front page post after visiting the luxury public toilet?

Don't worry, roryk. This post's golden.

I piss on your elitest toilets!

Gardyloo!
