Relais & Châteaux

Relais & Châteaux is a global association of independently owned and operated luxury hotels and restaurants, bringing together distinctive properties united by a commitment to exceptional hospitality, gastronomy and a strong sense of place. Founded in France in 1954, the collection includes hotels, resorts, villas and renowned restaurants across destinations around the world. Each member is selected for its individual character, quality of service and connection to its local culture and environment. Rather than following a standardized hotel model, Relais & Châteaux celebrates independent hospitality, personal experiences and culinary excellence, with many properties led by acclaimed chefs and hoteliers. The association also promotes responsible hospitality through initiatives focused on sustainable cuisine, local sourcing, biodiversity and the preservation of cultural and culinary heritage.
