Hôtel Barrière L’Hermitage La Baule: A Palace on the Atlantic Bay

Hôtel Barrière L’Hermitage La Baule presides over one of Europe's most beautiful bays, a belle-époque palace set on the long golden beach of La Baule on the southern coast of Brittany. A Leading Hotels of the World Sustainability Leader, it channels the seaside glamour of the early 20th century with the fresh Atlantic light and the salt marshes of nearby Guérande.

The dining faces the sea. Le Ciro's La Baule, designed as a refined yacht club by Friedmann & Versace, serves seafood such as lobster linguine right on the beach under chef Yannick Hochet; Le Pavillon celebrates seasonal French fare and Guérande traditions in a lush winter garden; and the grand lobby bar completes the offering.

For a grand, beachside stay on the Atlantic, L’Hermitage is a benchmark.
