Also in AFAR.
the rooms and suites are modern in style, but are thoroughly charming all the same; each is individually designed, but all share more or less the same expansive vineyard view.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set on the hills of Champillon, the property is minutes from the cellars of Epernay and the historic abbey of Hautvillers.
The rooms
Rooms and suites frame vineyard panoramas from private balconies, featuring freestanding soaking tubs, pale woodwork, and subtle golden bubble motifs.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated indoor pool stretches along sunlit windows, and an outdoor infinity pool extends across tiered limestone terraces.
The spa
Treatment suites feature circular soaking tubs, and thermal whirlpool baths sit against iridescent mosaic walls.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Michelin-starred Le Royal serves dinner under golden bubble chandeliers, and Le Bellevue opens onto an open-air valley terrace.
Designed to place the Marne Valley and its rolling vines on prime display, the hotel features a combination of local quartz stone and glass...
How it began
Once a coaching inn where French kings and Napoleon rested en route to Reims, the property was rebuilt with pale regional limestone.
“There, a contemporary wing is curved into the hillside, creating an amphitheater with the vineyards of the valley below as the main show.”
