Hotel Royal Barriere

About the venue

Just two hours from Paris in the seaside town of Deauville, the Hotel Royal Barriere is open from March to October when the so called Queen of Norman Beaches is at its most alluring.

A chic crowd comes for the annual film festival to enjoy one of France's most fashionable coastal playgrounds. At the Royal Barriere, they saty in an oceanfront palace, with Jacques Garcia-designed rooms ans suites, and a Michelin-star restaurant, L'etier. Chef Eric Provost, who trained with Joel Robuchon and Alain Ducasse, devises a delicate menu based on seasonal and local availability. During the day, guests can claim a sun lounger by the heated swimming pool or a cabana on the beach, or they can tour the area on one of the complimentary bicycles.
