Before becoming a charming hotel, La Gentilhommière used to be a hunting lodge. Hunting lodges were very popular at that time, usually built by affluent people or nobility. This property dates back to the 16th century and you can see architectural details from the era even now.

While the typical Burgundian facade will transport you back in time, the contemporary luxuries inside will ensure a comfortable stay. The hotel is also ideally situated to help guests discover the rich heritage of Burgundy.
