Bar toilets


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know wether or not it is a legal requirement in France to provide a toilet in a public bar?

we are buying a small hotel with a bar (the bar is open to the public but, being remote, attracts little or no passing trade apart from the local postman). Most users are hotel guests before and after dinner. We are looking to renovate the bar which will mean that it no longer has a toilet.

Can we do this legally or do we need to install one?

Are you serious?

I've never been in a French bar or restaurant where a toilet hasn't been available. Do you really expect your guests to go back to their hotel rooms for a pee?

Mind you most of the French men I know prefer to go outside up against the wall!!

Even if the loo isn't in the bar area itself, I would expect you will have to have one available elsewhere in or near the bar area.


regards,

Paul
