Questions about this section

Do all Cheval Blanc properties feel the same, or does each have its own personality?

Each property has a distinct identity, even though service standards remain consistently high.

Cheval Blanc, LVMH hospitality in five addresses

Cheval Blanc has grown through five highly selective addresses, linking French hospitality, authored design and destination-led positioning.

Dining: the Alléno and Donckele signatures

Cheval Blanc’s culinary identity is defined by place, with Yannick Alléno and Arnaud Donckele shaping its most distinctive dining addresses.

Cheval Blanc spa: Guerlain, Dior and sense of place

Cheval Blanc’s spas reveal each Maison’s identity, through Guerlain in Courchevel, St-Barth and Randheli, and Dior in Paris and the Seychelles.

What to keep in mind before booking

Choose Cheval Blanc by trip style first: ski in Courchevel, city in Paris, Riviera in Saint-Tropez, Caribbean beach in Saint-Barth, or island retreat in Randheli.
