Château de Mercuès

Nestled amidst rolling hills and vineyards, Château de Mercuès—a Relais & Châteaux property—stands as a majestic testament to the grandeur of the 13th century. The château's history is evident in every weathered stone and ageless vine that graces its surroundings, creating an atmosphere of timeless rural charm. Each guest room is a sanctuary of tranquility, featuring warm décor and uniquely selected furnishings that complement the original stone walls.

Château de Mercuès not only invites guests to indulge in the opulence of its accommodations but also in the culinary delights that grace its dining options. Its Michelin-starred Le Duèze Restaurant serves gourmet creations that pay homage to the region's rich gastronomic heritage. Savory flavors and carefully selected wines from the château's own vineyards make each dining experience a journey through the senses.

While the property embodies refinement, it is first and foremost a retreat into the French countryside—serene, pastoral and authentic. Guests will find themselves surrounded by vineyards and picturesque villages rather than bustling shopping districts or cosmopolitan nightlife. The experience here is one of slowing down while being immersed in the rhythms of rural France—its landscapes, cuisine and history.

Rooms differ in size and décor, but each offers views over the valley, vineyards or the garden.
