History & Story
In 2021, Hôtel La Ponche, in the historic heart of Saint-Tropez, unveiled its new attire. Overlooking the small beach of La Ponche, this 21-room hotel has been given a makeover under the direction of interior designer Fabrizio Casiraghi. What was once a family affair with Simone Duckstein, will continue in the same dynamic as two discreet families (Hubert and Nicolas Saltiel with Georges Saier – players in the hotel industry). The management of this five-star hotel — from now on open year-round — will be entrusted to Audrey Brémond, a native of Saint-Tropez, with chef Thomas Danigo (Galanga, Monsieur George Hotel, Paris) at her side. On the program: summery rooms, a table in the sun, a bar to reconnect with the past (the Saint Germain des Prés), and a signature Wellness Center by Le Tigre Yoga Club…

Restaurants & Bars
Restaurant : On the terrace overlooking the sea or in the dining room, Chef Thomas Danigo offers Mediterranean cuisine based on local vegetables, fresh fish du jour, and market produce. A gastronomy that is both elegant and inventive, in the image of La Ponche.
Bar : The mythical piano bar Saint-Germain-des-Prés-la Ponche is back. After your first morning dip, the bar is open with a menu full of creations: Romy Schneider’s grand Piscine, Brigitte Bardot’s Love Me or Love Me Not, or Boris Vian’s Froth on the Daydream. The soothing and friendly atmosphere invites you to settle down in the deep sofas or to continue a conversation at the bar. When the evening comes, our pianist takes possession of the place. We play the melodies of the great French successes for which it is good to dance or sing, while at the horizon, the sun joins the sea.
Wellness

On the menu: treatments and massages provided by experienced massage therapists: Ayurvedic, Balinese, Lomi Lomi, and Swedish.
