Royal Champagne Hotel bubbles over with beauty
Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa reopens in the heart of the Champagne vineyards.
The utterly modern Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa made its debut as the first contemporary luxury hotel the heart of the Champagne vineyards and the region’s UNESCO World Heritage Site. The original property has been closed since 2014 after it was acquired by Boston-based Champagne Hospitality collection, a group of boutique luxury hotels and spas that includes the award-winning Le Barthelemy Hotel & Spa in St Barths. The hotel will be led by Nicolas Béliard formerly General Manager of the Peninsula Paris.
“It is my great pleasure and privilege to introduce Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa,” ~Nicolas Béliard
The hotel is set in the hills above the area’s most famous villages, Champillon and Hautvillers of Dom Perignon fame. As well as the amazing 16,000sq ft spa and cuisine by a two-star Michelin Chef Jean-Denis Rieubland in two in a choice of two gourmet dining areas, guests have exclusive access to private Champagne houses, harvesting sessions with local wine producers and tastings with Champagne producers, personally curated by the in-house concierge team.
“We are embarking upon something absolutely unique in this very special place, enveloping our guests in a sensory experience that is wholly restorative and as uplifting as the bubbles in a glass of champagne. The beauty of our surroundings will be matched only by the inner sanctuary we’re creating at Royal Champagne.”
Local Reims-based architect, Giovanni Pace designed the property in the style of a contemporary amphitheatre, incorporating the original 19thCentury Post House, where it is said that King Charles X of France stopped over before heading to Reims for his coronation. Each of the 49 rooms and suites affords spectacular views of the Champagne valley, appointed with Hermès amenities and state-of-the-art comforts.
