What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin

Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Parc Paul Mistral sits across the street with its 1968 Olympic cauldron, and downtown cafes are a short walk away.
The rooms
Bedrooms follow a tailored monochrome palette, enlivened by a single bold block of either crimson or turquoise.
The spa and gym
The spa has a traditional hammam and hydromassage bed, and the fitness room has treadmills and stationary bikes.
Restaurant
Breakfast Room
Morning buffets serve regional breads and pastries in a dining salon arranged with display shelves.
At the table
