Como Hotels and Resort to launch first French property

Como Le Montrachet will open on 15 April 2023 and pre-opening rates are now available

The Como Group has announced that it will open Como Le Montrachet,  the newest addition to its global portfolio, this month (April 2023).

Under the leadership of general manager Florian Bonnin, Como has reimagined Hotel le Montrachet, a 19th century ‘place du village’ inn located in Puligny-Montrachet, Burgundy. Como described it as "a celebration of French gastronomy, hospitality and style". 

The hotel is housed across three heritage buildings arranged around the village square, just steps from the 'Le Montrachet' vineyard.

The hotels feature 30 individual rooms and suites designed by Paola Navone, who also designed Como Castello del Nero in Tuscany. 

Navone’s redesign of Como Le Montrachet is elegant in its translation of the ‘esprit du lieu’, complemented by contemporary touches. The overall palette is inspired by the colours of the Burgundy countryside with vintage furnishings specially curated for the hotel.

The hotel is an ideal getaway for oenophiles. In addition to Montrachet, one of the most renowned vineyards in the world, four Grand Cru vineyards and 17 Premier Cru vineyards lie close to the hotel in the villages of Chassagne-Montrachet, Meursault, Volnay and Pommard.

The hotel’s own sommelier, André Berthier, is available to take guests on private wine tastings and trips to local wineries. Guests can also enjoy wine tasting workshops where they will visit a vineyard to learn about the vines and enjoy wine samplings in the vineyards with the sommelier or vintner.

The hotel is a 90-minute drive from Lyon or a 40-minute drive from the private airport of Dijon. From Paris, the hotel is a three-hour drive or is a 90-minute train ride by the high speed TGV train to Le Creusot.

Reservations are now open with pre-opening rates starting from US$425 for bookings made before 30 May 2023.
