On your arrival, vintage chests and suitcases, teddy bears, toys, music and fragrances will plunge you into the enchanting, traditional world of Christmas. This year, the fir tree in the lobby will hang from the ceiling, revealing its amazing golden roots symbolising the strength and powerfulness of our souvenirs, and the loveliness of our precious childhoods.
More delights to be discovered in situ are the creations of pastry-chefs who will propose gourmet chocolate treats in the guise of small cases, recalling decorations for year-end festivities. A party atmosphere liberally unfurled throughout the hotel.
This year, Perrine Guyonnet conjures up for the hotel a Christmas in soft colours of gold, caramel, brown, entirely shaped by her expertise. She whisks us off to travel back for an instant to our souvenirs, inner journeys, unexpected trips, voyages to the unforgettable. Our Christmas Voyages! The decorations are subtly positioned throughout the hotel: from tableware to gifts placed in the rooms, the team’s scarves and ties. Everything blends with the ambiance of the moment to offer guests a unique experience on each of their stays.
