The global benchmark for charming hotels and gourmet restaurants in Europe

Buoyed by its mission “To discover, guide and help discover”, the brand presided over by Alain Ducasse has set itself the goal of becoming the benchmark for global travellers, charming hotels and gourmet restaurants in Europe. In 2017 les Collectionneurs drew together 585 charming hotels and independent restaurants in 17 countries that generate sales revenues totalling more than €800 million.

Thanks to its strong presence in the regions and more than 1,164 rooms and suites in Paris, les Collectionneurs are the only brand in France to offer such a broad and in-depth range. This year, the Collection has been enriched by four new European destinations: Germany, Austria, Greece and Portugal. Thanks to its alliance with Romantik Hotels & Restaurants, les Collectionneurs now offers 102 addresses in Germany and 20 in Austria. To allow Collectors to discover each of our destinations in the most beautiful way, we have selected 258 Tables de la Collection.

A strong brand

…to defend the independence of each and every member

To achieve this goal, les Collectionneurs focuse on a strong brand crafted by and for the entrepreneurs it represents. les Collectionneurs members are involved in corporate activities and play a proactive role in project committees. The brand is forged together with the people who make it up, its members – the independent hoteliers and restaurateurs. The strength of the brand has one sole objective: to enable its members to maintain their independence and ensure the sustainability of their structures.

Beyond the protection afforded by the strength of the brand, Les Collectionneurs provide daily support for its members in their sales activities, helps them to diversify their client base and avoid any dependency on the “pure player” websites that merely allocate room nights.
