Hotel de Mougins
Peaceful Provençal hideaway surrounded by sun, gardens and timeless charm
Set in a historic 18th-century bastide, the four-star Hôtel de Mougins offers a tranquil retreat in the heart of Provence. Surrounded by Mediterranean gardens and filled with Provençal charm, it’s the perfect base for unwinding and exploring the Côte d’Azur.
Once a simple meadow shaded by olive trees, this elegant 18th-century bastide has been transformed into the charming Hôtel de Mougins. Today, it welcomes guests into a peaceful world of gardens and sunlit terraces, where the scent of lavender lingers in the air and time seems to slow. The hotel’s spacious park is home to cypresses, lemon trees, and centuries-old olive trees, creating a serene setting for strolls, sunbathing by the pool, or savouring Mediterranean flavours in the dappled shade.
Each day begins gently, with breakfast on your private terrace and the morning sun filtering through the trees. Later, you might relax with a cocktail by the pool, enjoy a massage in your room, or try your hand at tennis or pétanque. The hotel’s concierge is on hand to arrange everything from airport transfers to dinner reservations or beach bookings, ensuring your stay is as effortless as it is memorable. Whether you’re seeking quiet moments or Provençal adventures, Hôtel de Mougins offers the perfect mix of comfort, elegance and authentic southern spirit.
