Hôtel le Vallon de Valrugues & Spa ★★★★★

Provence has a jewel-like constancy, where the faithful sun shines for over 300 days a year, the mountains are the unvarying backdrop and nature is your permanent companion. It was the land that inspired artists such as Van Gogh, Matisse and even Picasso, who leave their legacy in Provence´s divine light.

Van Gogh’s routes, where he gained inspiration for many of his paintings can be traced back to the centre of Provence. Walk the Chemin Canto Cigalo or visit the enchanting villages of Saint Rémy-de-Provence itself to explore the wanders that Van Gogh once saw. Only half an hour away is the photogenic city of Avignon with the world´s largest Gothic Palace, Palais des Papes, and exciting theatrical venues. This area is rich in history, culture and so you’ll never be short of things to do.

There´s no welcome like than the one you´ll experience upon entering Le Vallon. Romantic lighting and kind staff lead you into the building and up to your room to reveal evermore elegance and sophistication. The rooms have a chic, modern decor and cater for your every need with its 5-star facilities.

The Restaurant Gastronomique run by head Chef Thibaut Serin Moulin wows with his Michelin-starred creations which have been carefully constructed to become a work of art. Innovative and elegant Chef Moulin´s seasonal menus are inspired by his motto “bien manger c´est le début du bonheur” (“eating well is the beginning of finding happiness”), and we couldn´t agree more.

To de-stress and unwind find yourself in the very capable hands of Le Vallon´s spa team. The spa boasts a heated indoor pool, jacuzzi, steam room, counter-current pool, and fitness room. There´s an array of spa treatments, from hand massage to Swedish massages, baths, body wrapping and Dead Sea body scrubs. We´re feeling relaxed already...are you?

At the end of it all however, there is one thing that VeryChic can´t predict, and that is how you will experience every moment of la vie en Provence, that cannot be foretold and is completely up to you...
