Opening this month, the Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa will be the great wine region’s first contemporary luxury hotel the French countryside.
Situated on the outskirts of Epernay, surrounded by wineries and the Unesco World Heritage Site, the 16,000sq ft destination spa has been created in partnership with French skincare brand Biologique Recherche.
The spa offers nine treatment rooms, fitness facilities, a yoga studio, eucalyptus-infused sauna, and a mosaic tiled hammam. There is also two swimming pools – one indoor, one outdoor.
Biologique Recherche will offer signature treatments, including the ‘Second skin treatment’, a regenerating and lifting facial treatment. Gharieni has supplied ten MO1wellness beds for the spa.
Designed by Reims-based architect Giovanni Pace the 49-room hotel and spa – a sibling to the excellent Le Barthélemy resort on St Barths – form part of an original 19th Century Post House where it is said that King Charles X of France stopped over before heading to Reims for his coronation.
The hotel will be led by Nicolas Béliard, formerly general manager of the Peninsula Paris. He says: “It is my great pleasure and privilege to introduce Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa. 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.”
