Bernard Bernard Magrez & Pierre Gagnaire, the ambassadors of excellence.
To make the heart of a traditional Bordeaux house beat, passion is imperious. One must know how to listen to the aspirations of travellers, to discover the part of madness that overthrows a hotel concept, to understand what each host comes to look for to offer it to him.
Bernard Magrez, owner of four Grands Crus Classés in the Bordeaux region, Chateau Pape Clément (Graves), Chateau La Tour Carnet (Haut Médoc), Chateau Fombrauge (Saint-Emilion) and Clos Haut Peyraguey (Sauternes) Excellence through wine, arts, gastronomy and prestigious hotels.

STAY AT LA GRANDE MAISON
Refinement and Elegance were the key words for Frédérique Fournier, the decorator of the rooms. Decorated in a revisited Napoleon III style, they are adorned in pink, green, flowery violet and striking raspberry-red. They place the emphasis on French crafts, with embroidered Braquenié silk taffeta fabrics from Pierre Frey, Houlès trimmings, Moissonnier furniture and products by Guerlain in the bathrooms.
“I was looking for very floral decoration, quite bold for Bordeaux, creating a new, very French approach, where the clear presence of luxury is offset by charm and elegance”, explains Frédérique Fournier, who chose all the decorative elements from the work of French artisans, in line with the hotel’s respect for tradition.
Although each room has its own character, they all offer a snug sense of comfort: thick bath towels, bathrobes and soft slippers make the Carrara marble and grey travertine bathrooms a veritable ode to relaxation. Discover Espérance (Hope), Lumière (Light), Contemplation (Contemplation), Sagesse (Wisdom), Harmonie (Harmony) and Passion d’Une Vie (Passion of a Lifetime).
