Hotels Own Introduction
A Seaside Legend in Deauville
Just two hours from Paris, this storied Anglo-Norman mansion rises in the heart of Deauville, mere steps from the sea and the town’s iconic boardwalk. Built in 1912, the hotel has long embodied the elegance of Normandy’s most refined coastal resort, offering an ideal base from which to discover its charm.
Gastronomy and the Art of Living
Within the hotel — and throughout the city — guests can explore a vibrant mosaic of gourmet, sporting and wellness experiences. At La Belle Époque, refined regional cuisine takes centre stage, while the distinctly British Hotel Bar serves perfectly crafted cocktails. Beyond its doors, a further collection of Barrière restaurants and bars across Deauville expands the culinary journey.
Wellness and Wellbeing
The spa invites moments of deep relaxation, with a pool, sauna, hammam and fitness centre complemented by exceptional treatments and massages in collaboration with Biologique Recherche and Algologie. It is a space dedicated to restoration, whether after a day of leisure or adventure.
Sport and Family Pleasures
From golf, tennis and horse riding to padel and countless outdoor pursuits, activities abound for every level of enthusiast. Younger guests, from three months to 17 years old, receive a royal welcome across three dedicated Kids’ Clubs tailored to babies, children and teens.
A Century of Glamour
Over the decades, illustrious figures such as Coco Chanel, Charles III and Claude Lelouch have contributed to the hotel’s enduring mystique. For more than 45 years, it has also hosted the annual American Film Festival, celebrating cinema in a setting that has long been intertwined with the silver screen — reinforcing its status as a living legend on the Normandy coast.
