Since the 19th century, the Hôtel de France has been conceived as an invitation to the countryside. Ideally located two hours from Paris, at the gateway to Champagne and Burgundy, this unusual and historic guesthouse is part of a tradition of hospitality and refinement.
The hotel was built in the heart of the green village of Cunfin, at the same time as the railway line, with the aim of improving the living conditions of the rural world and bringing it out of isolation.
A royal road for the Impressionists: Reconnecting with nature and its fragmented light. The illustrious Renoir set up his studio there in Essoyes from 1888 to 1919.
In an unusual setting typical of the 1900s, the Hôtel de France is ideal for weddings, photoshoots, filming, seminars, wellness retreats, and artist residencies. In a unique atmosphere combining charm and romance, we help organize your events to make them magical moments.
Our bedrooms, lounges and reception rooms open onto a vast wooded park, cradled by the Landion River, where gardens and vegetable patches stand alongside local apple trees bordered by English roses.
The Hôtel de France also boasts a vast 4,000 m² estate: the hotel and its park to enjoy its shaded nooks, a village house located a 2-minute walk away and its private garden that can accommodate up to 3 people.
A total of seven private bathrooms, three kitchens and two reception rooms, each with an area of 80 m2, for your events.
Take advantage of its tailor-made services, artists, caterers, speakers and more in a Belle Époque atmosphere, your stay will become an unforgettable memory.
The establishment is fully privatized, offering an ideal setting for stays with family, friends or teams. Whether for a romantic weekend, a warm reunion or a professional retreat, the Hôtel de France guesthouse allows you to share unique moments in a friendly and refined atmosphere.
