Set in the hills of Vence with sweeping views of the Côte d'Azur, this historic château was once a 12th-century Knights Templar Commandery. Today, it invites guests to enjoy panoramic vistas stretching from Nice to Cannes among centuries-old olive groves. Art enthusiasts will appreciate the hotel's proximity to masterpieces by Picasso, Matisse and Renoir, making it an ideal destination for those seeking a high-end stay immersed in the artistic heritage of the French Riviera.

The hotel features 40 rooms and suites and six private villas set among ancient olive trees. Each showcases the château's history alongside contemporary features and many offer private balconies overlooking the hills and the Mediterranean Sea. Options include the spacious Prestige Junior Suites with generous living areas and terraces and the romantic Duplex Suites in the château's historic tower with hidden bedrooms and sea views. The new L'Atelier Junior Suite provides 742 square feet of luxury, including a hammam shower, outdoor stone shower and a private loggia overlooking the hills of Vence. Families or groups seeking additional space will appreciate the one- to three-bedroom Provencal-style villas, each elegantly appointed with private outdoor spaces. The villas offer an intimate home-away-from-home experience with access to all hotel amenities, including in-villa spa treatments and 24-hour dining upon request.

Located atop a hill in the French Riviera, the hotel is a 30-minute drive from Nice Côte d'Azur International Airport (NCE). Private limousine transfers with multilingual drivers can be arranged. The charming village of Vence is only minutes away, featuring art galleries and local markets. The hotel also offers easy access to the beaches of Cannes and the cultural sites of Saint-Paul-de-Vence.
