Located in Château-Arnoux-Saint-Auban, the hotel has been managed by the Gleize family for several generations and is the perfect retreat for those seeking a discreet luxury experience focused on fine living and high cuisine.

Every space is designed for the well-being of the guest, with views of the gardens or the surrounding countryside.

Michelin-Starred Restaurant: Heart of the Experience

The use of local aromatic herbs and fresh produce from Upper Provence is fundamental, offering memorable dishes with great sensory impact.

The presence of an aromatic garden and the possibility of participating in cooking classes make the experience even more connected to the culture of food and the territory.
