Toile Blanche – A True Hidden Gem in the French Riviera

Chic & antique.

Toile Blanche is located just outside the center of picturesque Saint-Paul de Vence and near the glitz & glam of the French Rivièra. Within a seven-minute drive you’re on the French Riviera’s most artsy and chic hilltop village.

Often labeled as the ‘second most beautiful village in France,’ Saint Paul de Vence seems a world apart from the glittering azure sea, the star-studded streets of Cannes or the bustling city of Nice. And yet Saint-Paul de Vence is just a mere few kilometers away.

As said, the location is very convenient to Nice Côte d’Azur Airport which is the closest international airport (just 15 minutes by car).

Even though the hotel hasn’t an in-house spa, it does offer massages and alfresco yoga sessions on your terrace for the ultimate me-time experience.

The hotel is family-friendly although it focuses on grown-up activities, and babysitting can be pre-booked for €20 per hour.

Just a small stroll from each suite you will find two nicely designed pools to cool-off the French summer heat. Or book a room with your own private pool for more intimacy.

As the hotel lives up art & creativity; a not to be missed addition is the brand new art gallery which you can visit and inspire yourself during your time off.

Fun fact to mention is that the Leroy-Brothers, the creative family behind the hotel, completed a trial of over 40 different bed brands and settled on Parisian-crafted Tréca mattresses, ensuring a good night’s sleep.

Choose between a wide range of rooms from the idyllic Suite Cabanat to the private pool of Maison du Pénéquet. all very beautiful and well-equipped with Bluetooth speakers, smart TVs, air-conditioning, gourmet minibars stocked exclusively with local and organic products, Les Choses Simples bath products, board games and playing cards, bean-to-cup coffee machines, and a tea-making kit.

All suites have a balcony or terrace, double glazing (welcome in chilly early spring or autumn), and exposed lovely original features like beam ceilings and arches.

Bathrooms come with rain showers and most of them with separate bath tub, butler sinks, and some naturally lit via translucent panels.
