Who are we ?
For over thirty years, "Châteaux & Hôtels Collection" has been reuniting privately-owned establishments. Taken over by the Alain Ducasse Group seven years ago, the label has become renowned world-wide for its attractive, homey hotels right across France.
The collection by “Châteaux & Hôtels Collection”, being presented in a harmonious and balanced manner, segments the hotel services into six distinct families: "Signatures" for those who only appreciate the remarkable or the exceptional; “Demeures de Caractère” for lovers of beautiful stonework recounting its history; “Exclusive Hotels” where practicality and charm walk hand-in-hand; “Compagnie des Auberges” for those friendly and generous bygone inns; “Gourmand” to savour those fine local dishes.
Italy, Spain and even Portugal benefit from exceptional dexterity, the image of their history and culture. Hence, for its first steps over the border, "Châteaux et Hôtels Collection" has naturally turned its attentions towards such countries.
