Hotels Own Introduction
A Château Above the Vineyards of Sancerre
Perched above the rolling hills of Berry and surrounded by vineyards, Les Hauts de Sancerre is a refined retreat where history, landscape, and quiet elegance come together in harmony. Suspended between sky and vines, the estate offers a serene escape shaped by calm surroundings, timeless beauty, and a deep sense of place. Every stay unfolds at its own gentle rhythm, inviting moments of stillness, connection, and discovery.
Suites Framed by Views
The château’s eight suites have been designed as intimate sanctuaries where understated luxury meets warmth and tranquility. Some overlook the rooftops of the village, others open onto peaceful gardens or sweeping vineyard landscapes. Spacious yet deeply personal, each suite carries its own atmosphere while sharing the same sense of comfort, elegance, and quiet refinement.
Seasonal Cuisine by Chef Arnaud Munster
Led by Belgian chef and Top Chef finalist Arnaud Munster, the culinary experience celebrates precision, creativity, and a deep respect for ingredients. Contemporary and seasonally driven, his cuisine highlights the richness of the local terroir through refined flavours and thoughtful compositions that feel both modern and deeply rooted in the region.
Gardens, Forest Paths, and Stillness
Spanning 4.5 hectares, the estate weaves together wooded trails, carefully tended gardens, and expansive views across the surrounding countryside. Inside the château, minimalist interiors create a graceful contrast to the eclectic historic façade, balancing heritage with contemporary calm. Every space encourages guests to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the simplicity of the landscape around them.
