The idea of building the hotel belongs to René Traversack, the founder of the Grandes Etapes Francaises network, which unites luxury hotels located in ancient castles and estates. He acquired 16 acres of land in one of the most beautiful parts of the Cote d'Azur and invited the famous architect Fernand Puyon, with whom the exterior and design of the hotel was designed. In full accordance with the original idea, the hotel is designed as a typical southern farmhouse and separate apartments with private pools, surrounded on all sides by primeval nature. For 1971, when construction began, it was a truly revolutionary level of comfort and service. These highest standards have been maintained by the hotel for many years, and today it continues to be one of the best places for rest for the most sophisticated travelers. A complete renovation of the hotel was carried out in 1998. Location: The castle hotel is located in the center of a pine forest of 8 hectares, facing the Mediterranean Sea and Saint-Paul-de-Vence.
