Hotels

The exclusive palace-style hotel is Saint Tropez' largest hotel, situated in the middle of a park with amazing scents and breath-taking views.

It features a spa, gourmet restaurant and poolside restaurant, bars, an art gallery and magnificent 25-acre grounds (an official French Bird Protection League / Birdlife International ornithological reserve) and a private beach club.

Built in the 19th century and fully restored since, the 5-star Château de la Messardière — regarded as a genuine institution in Saint‑Tropez — has maintained all its extraordinary original character. With 117 guest rooms, including 57 suites, this chateau hotel has a soothing and stylish ambience. The beautiful interior has a warm decor, typical of the Provence, with ochres, Oriental rugs and wrought ironwork.

This hotel is open from mid-April until mid-October.

The neighbourhood

The restored nineteenth-century castle is located on a hill beside Saint Tropez and offers incomparable panoramic views.

The pool

The hotel has both indoor and outdoor heated swimming pools, a fitness centre and a large luxury spa facility. They also have their own private beach club on the coast of the Mediterranean.

The Bar

The chateau bar and its terrace offer a delightful setting for an aperitif or a romantic evening. The bar area has a seductive and astonishing blend of stained-glass cathedral windows, antique furniture and English wood panels, coupled with a fireplace and lounge-library. Whilst the terrace is the perfect choice for our deliciously warm summer evenings, the Bar Terrace's comfortable armchairs and couches bordering the pool invite guests to simply let go and revel in the soothing vista of Saint-Tropez's starry nights.

The Restaurant

The gourmet restaurant at the hotel is the L'Acacia restaurant. This restaurant serves refined and creative Mediterranean-style cuisine in a truly exceptional ambience. The restaurant's vast terrace offers sweeping views over the beaches of Pampelonne. The poolside restaurant, A Ciel Ouvert, offers a selection of grilled fish and meats, salads, club sandwiches and dishes of the day. Here you can enjoy a light snack or linger over a full meal.

Child policy

Children over 12 are welcome in the hotel as long as the parents ensure them not to disturb other guests. An extra bed will be charged 100 Euros per night.
