Beaune is the wine capital of Burgundy, but it has another, older identity as a centre of medical care. The Hospices de Beaune, founded by Nicolas Rolin in 1443, treated the sick of the region for centuries on the income from the surrounding vineyards. Hotel Le Cep occupies a fourteenth-to-sixteenth-century Burgundian mansion in the same medieval centre, classified as a historic monument. Marie de Bourgogne's spa connects two of the region's long traditions: the wine that funded the hospices, now distilled into Pinot Noir-derived treatments, and the cross-cultural pharmacology that European medicine has always borrowed from. Ayurveda is the latest layer.
At Hotel Le Cep, the healing philosophy embraces 5000 years of knowledge. The in-house Spa Marie de Bourgogne offers the latest spa technology and treatments to help you relax, restore and revive. Try cryotherapy, chromotherapy, balneotherapy or a flotation bed, as well as massage and rituals using products with anti-aging extracts derived from local pinot noir grapes.
There is also an Ayurvedic Centre offering personalized treatment programs created in consultation with an Ayurvedic physician. Programs range from half-day sessions to weeks-long retreats. Explore traditional Ayurvedic treatments and cures, yoga and meditation, and sample an Ayurvedic diet customized for you, to help you detox and rebalance.
„Holistic spa treatments and Ayurveda in a 16th century mansion in the heart of Burgundy’s wine country.“
Hotel Le Cep is steeped in history. It combines several mansions dating from the 14th to the 16th century – King Louis XIV is said to have slept in one – with gardens and courtyards classified as historic monuments. Every room has its own unique character, decorated in a style that complements the building’s historic charm; antique furniture combined with the modern comforts you’d expect from a 5-star hotel. This sensitive re-use of historic buildings, and a commitment to the preservation of local culture, is central to the hotel’s approach to sustainability.
Hotel Le Cep is located in the medieval town of Beaune in the heart of Burgundy’s vineyards, and it includes the Saint-Felix Wine Tasting Cellars, where you can taste 1000 Burgundy wine appellations. There’s also a gourmet restaurant serving traditional regional cuisine. It’s the perfect base to explore some chateaus, take in an arts festival, or follow the Route des Grands Cru to enjoy the mystical charm of the picturesque rolling hills while visiting some of over 600 winemakers.
