Your stay at the Demeures & Châteaux Hôtel de Greuze
Thanks to the hotel's secure, private car park, you can visit the town of Tournus on foot. A jewel of art and history.
Your first stop will undoubtedly be the Saint-Philibert abbey church, a masterpiece of Romanesque art. Admire the impressive dimensions of its interior, from its dazzling light to its vaults and pillars. The medieval mosaics, crypt and chapel of Saint-Michel will also transport you back in time.
The Hôtel-Dieu, Musée Greuze, is also a must-see. Its three wards and remarkable apothecary reveal the history of Tournus' hospitals. Then wander through the historic centre of Tournus, a maze of picturesque narrow streets lined with houses with colourful facades. Finish off with a visit to the Musée du Vélo.
What's more, the Hôtel de Greuze is the ideal starting point for discovering the riches of Burgundy. Take the blue route along the Saône to cycle to Mâcon, or hike through the heart of the Burgundy vineyards. The hotel is recognised as a cycling centre and offers electric bike hire.
The history of this hotel dates back to medieval times, on the town's ramparts.
The Philbertine monks, fleeing Viking incursions from Noirmoutier, took refuge here on 19 April 875, bringing with them the precious relics of Saint Philibert. These events subsequently gave the abbey its illustrious name, under the protective aegis of Charles II, known as the Bald. Thanks to his generosity, they received the monastery, the castrum and the very heart of Tournus as a gift.
In the past, the hotel served as the presbytery of Saint-Philibert Abbey, establishing an indestructible link with this religious establishment.
Over the centuries, the abbey has stood the test of time and the tumult of conflict. Rebuilt at the end of the first millennium, its rehabilitation extended into the 12th century, testifying to its historical importance.
As for the hotel, after having been home to several prominent families, it fell into disrepair until it was bought in 1985. The then owner undertook major renovation work. He succeeded in preserving the charm and authenticity of the premises, with elegant furnishings and decor. Today, the new owners aim to add a touch of modernity, while respecting the heritage that has remained unchanged since that time.
Finally, the name of the hotel pays tribute to the famous French painter and draughtsman Jean-Baptiste Greuze, a native of Tournus. His art, a reflection of his genius, is on display at the Musée Greuze.
Nestling in the historic heart of Tournus, the Hôtel de Greuze embodies French elegance. Here, history and refinement blend gracefully. As soon as you enter, the Burgundy stone floor greets you, announcing the prestige and authenticity of the premises. This establishment offers 19 sublimely appointed rooms, each with a unique experience. Carefully selected period furnishings give each room its own soul and character. You'll find a Louis XIII armchair, an Empire-style writing desk and even Louis XVI light fittings.
Some rooms have an uninterrupted view of the abbey. Enjoy a real immersion in the historic panorama of Tournus at any time of the day. The Hôtel de Greuze also boasts a private spa for two. Accessible free of charge for one hour, it includes a jacuzzi, a relaxation area, a sauna and a steam room. Relaxation guaranteed.
The outside of the hotel is just as pleasant with its two terraces, one of which adjoins the abbey. It's the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine or a sunny breakfast. Talking of wine, the Hôtel de Greuze celebrates the region's rich viticultural heritage in its wine bar. It features some of the finest local grape varieties, including Chablis, Givry and Saint-Véran. Reduce
