Hip Hotels - France

France has it all - a rich history, an incredibly varied geography, a gastronomic culture that is unsurpassed, and a tradition of good living that remains blissfully untainted by the stresses of modern life. It alos offers an unparalleled choice of world class places to stay - from medieval chateaux and grand city hotels to rural farmhouses and Alpine chalets - and, of course, the very lastest in interior design.

HIP HOTELS - FRANCE brings together the most authentically individual of these hotels in the country's choicest destinations. Choose the futuristic vision of Jean Nouvel or the hearty hospitality of an Alpine farmhouse, a remote fortress on the Breton coast or the hip modernity of Le Corbusier's Unite d'Habitation in Marseilles, a Mecca for devotees of modernist architecture. Some are established, some virtually unknown, but every one of these hotels is a unique response to the geography, cuisine and design heritage of its location.
