What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Parc Borély sits right next door, and the beaches of Plages du Prado are a short stroll away.
The rooms
Saffron yellow and deep ochres color the bedrooms. Selected rooms open onto private balconies looking across the racecourse toward the sea.
The spa
Bring a swimsuit.
Private Deep Nature treatment rooms host restorative body rituals and facials beside warm wood cabinetry.
The hot tub
A mosaic hot tub sits within a glass rotunda looking out toward the outdoor pool deck and palm trees.
The boxing gym
A yellow boxing ring stands in the center, flanked by heavy leather punching bags for training and sparring.
Restaurant Villa M
Woven wicker chairs and terracotta parasols line the terrace, where meals center on market fish and Mediterranean sharing plates.
At the table
Mornings begin at the tiled breakfast buffet. Later on, the lounge bar mixes aperitifs under woven wicker lamps.
How it began
Healthcare mutual Groupe Pasteur Mutualité took over the 2007 building, remaking it in 2025 as a seaside sibling to their Paris wellness hub.

Our shorthand
How we rate hotels.
The medals

Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Silver
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
Bronze
They did this well. You’ll notice.
Listed
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
