Inside Royal Champagne

A refined retreat where vineyard landscapes, historic charm, and contemporary French luxury come together to create an unforgettable experience in the heart of Champagne—thoughtfully designed for relaxation, beauty, and a deep connection to place.

Overlooking the golden slopes of Épernay’s vineyards, the Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa redefines what it means to escape to the French countryside. Once a historic coaching inn where royalty paused on their journey to coronations in nearby Reims, the estate now stands as a seamless union of legacy and modern luxury. Its location is ideal—perched above the village of Champillon, surrounded by UNESCO-listed hills and within easy reach of some of the world’s most prestigious Champagne houses. The hotel invites guests not just to visit the region, but to feel immersed in its rhythm, its landscape, and its centuries-old culture.

The design of the hotel reflects this blend of history and present-day elegance. A contemporary wing of glass and stone wraps around the original 19th-century structure, framing panoramic views over the rolling vineyards that change with the light. Inside, the interiors strike a balance between minimalism and warmth—natural materials, soft textures, and earth tones create a calm, sophisticated ambiance throughout the suites, common areas, and spa. Light floods every corner, and art is quietly integrated into the spaces, reinforcing the hotel’s dialogue between refinement and authenticity. Each suite opens onto its own private terrace, giving guests a personal window into the Champagne landscape.

Gastronomy is central to the Royal Champagne experience, led by Chef Paolo Boscaro, whose culinary vision bridges modern elegance with regional soul. At the Michelin-starred Le Royal, his seasonal tasting menus highlight local ingredients and classical technique with a contemporary edge. The more relaxed Bellevue brasserie offers refined French fare with breathtaking vineyard views—a perfect spot for long lunches or golden-hour dinners. Both restaurants feature wine lists curated with passion and depth, celebrating rare vintage Champagnes alongside small grower labels. Guests can take part in private tastings, visit historic Champagne houses, or join cellar tours guided by the hotel’s own sommeliers. Here, the food and wine are not an accessory to the experience—they are its beating heart.

Wellness is treated with equal care. The hotel’s expansive Biologique Recherche spa is a destination in itself, with nine serene treatment rooms, a hammam, yoga and fitness studios, and a stunning indoor-outdoor infinity pool that seems to spill into the vineyards. Treatments are personalized, emphasizing skin health, relaxation, and renewal. Guests can take guided countryside walks, schedule mindfulness sessions, or simply spend hours by the pool, soaking in the stillness. At Royal Champagne, the pace slows down naturally, offering space to disconnect from daily life and reconnect with something simpler and more beautiful .
