The rooms
Arranged across five historic houses, accommodations feature curated French antiques, Persian carpets, marble bathrooms, and wood-burning fireplaces in select suites.
The pool and lounge
Bring a swimsuit.
Stone pavers surround the outdoor swimming pool, and an open fire warms the indoor spa lounge.
The thermal baths
Soak slowly.
Natural geothermal springs feed sunken kaolin mud baths and wooden hot tubs set on the garden lawn.
At the table
The three-Michelin-starred dining room serves naturalist haute cuisine, and La Ferme aux Grives roasts meats over a roaring stone hearth.
The 20-acre park, open to the public, has palm and banana trees… the antiques collection is a melange of colorful Persian carpets, oil paintings, fine French cabinetry, and Asian objets d’art.
How it began
In 1974, the estate transformed this imperial spa town into a culinary sanctuary that pioneered lighter, gastronomic slimming cuisine.
