Hotel Sezz - Saint Tropez

In the heart of the French Riviera, the beautiful town of Saint-Tropez has come to be known for rows of private yachts lining the quay and a stream of movie stars. It is the region's natural beauty that attracts them, of course. Here, Shahe Kalaidjian and Christophe Pillet have crafted their beautiful second collaboration. With their first - Hôtel Sezz Paris in the city's 16th arrondissement - they developed a language of their own. In Saint-Tropez, they translate it from an urban lexicon into one that exudes the ultimate in luxury vacation. Situated on the town's Route des Salins, the hotel is built of light and air - guests can smell and feel saltwater and warm breezes from their beds. With 37 elegantly-appointed guestrooms and villas engulfed by a lush wooded park and a swimming pool at its hub, Sezz Saint-Tropez is as warm and inviting as it is fresh creative vision.
