The hotel, close to the vineyard, seems to have always been there, thanks to a well thought out Buco’chic architecture by Yves Collet. Les Sources de Caudalie hotel is a tribute to regional heritage, as is the authentic interior design. The luxury is discreet, not ostentatious. The architect transcribes the cultural heritage of the region by using antique furniture and artwork, recycled materials and dark woodwork. An enveloping and profound scenography that combines both the warmth of a family home and the luxury of a 5-star palace. A journey into the heart of the Aquitaine region, which continues in the rooms and suites. The decoration was entirely redone by Delphine Sauvaget: a great result.
