Les Meilleurs Hôtels de Luxe à Reims

The greatest country-house hotel in Champagne, Les Crayères occupies a Belle Époque château in a park of centenary trees with two Michelin-starred restaurants — Philippe Mille's Le Parc and the more accessible Le Jardin — a spa, and twenty rooms of devastating elegance. The cellar, built over ancient Roman chalk quarries, is one of the most well-appointed in France.

The twelve rooms and suites are appropriately elegant.
