The recent change of ownership has given this Logis de France a new lease of life right across the board. The renovation is almost complete and it is a triumphant success.
The Rossini restaurant is situated in the main building with tables spilling out onto a little terrace for fine weather dining. The look, even after redecoration, is straight-forward and somewhat unpretentious so the excellence of the cuisine comes as a bit of a surprise. Interestingly, you can choose a menu which includes a selection from the reasonably-priced wine list.
Directly across the minor road is the Villa Saint-Bernard, the annexe where every room and bathroom has been totally refurbished to a high standard. When the rooms in the main building follow suit, the hotel is likely to graduate to three-star status. In a resort with such a huge amount of accommodation, the Lutetia stands a cut above the crowd.
The charming young owners clearly know their stuff. Their avowed aim is to provide ‘whatever will give guests most pleasure’. With the added advantage of a tranquil location only about 100 yards from the superb sandy beach and an easy stroll into the animated centre of town, how can they fail?
