A Coastal Retreat on the Pink Granite Coast
Overlooking the dramatic shores of the Pink Granite Coast, Les Bassans rises within the former Manoir du Sphinx in Perros-Guirec. Shaped by sea winds and ocean light, the house celebrates the spirit of exploration and the transformative journeys of great travellers.
Inspired by the Northern Gannet
The hotel takes inspiration from the majestic Northern Gannet, Europe’s largest seabird, which finds refuge on nearby Rouzic Island—the only breeding colony of its kind in France. Here, life follows the rhythm of the tides, the winds, and the open sea.
Rooms Open to the Horizon
Its 25 rooms, all facing the water, combine authentic Breton architecture with a quiet sense of refinement. Every stay unfolds to the sound of waves and seabirds, creating a peaceful retreat suspended between land and ocean.
A Restaurant with the Spirit of an Ocean Liner
With the atmosphere of a 1930s transatlantic liner, the Bassans restaurant and bar reimagine the legacy of the historic Manoir du Sphinx. Panoramic views stretch across the ever-changing coastline, where sea and sky continuously reshape the landscape.
Breton Flavours, Refined
In a warm, wood-panelled setting, Chef Jean-Pascal Gebka crafts refined cuisine rooted in Breton terroir and the rhythms of the sea. Iodised flavours, exceptional local ingredients, and elegant technique come together in dishes that reflect the character and soul of the coast.
