France: Fleur de Loire Blois, Loire Valley

A Michelin-Starred Chef’s Loire Valley Love Letter

Fleur de Loire began as a 17th-century hospice on the banks of the Loire River in Blois, and chef Christophe Hay has turned it into something closer to a love letter to the region: a 44-room hotel built entirely around the epicurean lifestyle. His two-Michelin-starred, Green Star restaurant, Christophe Hay, anchors the property, joined by a second gastronomic restaurant, Amour Blanc, and a dedicated pâtisserie kiosk. Much of what lands on the plate comes from the hotel's own permaculture garden, a detail that runs through nearly every dish.

Between meals, guests can take a Pilates class or a phyto-aromatic treatment at the 450 square-meter Sisley Spa, then unwind by the outdoor pool overlooking the Loire. Blois itself makes an ideal home base for exploring the region's famed châteaux, most within easy reach for a day trip.
