Given the challenging times the world is going through right now, it feels particularly exciting to give our guests something to look forward to and a place to get together with loved ones.”
The combination of international ambiance of the Grand Hôtel and the timeless elegance of Ruinart will treat guests to an unforgettable, world-class experience. In addition to a wide range of prestige champagnes, the bar will also serve appetizers specially created to highlight the different champagne characters.
“We are delighted and proud to have the opportunity to realise this exclusive champagne bar together with the Grand Hôtel. Ruinart and the Grand Hôtel are alike in our history-rich heritage filled with elegance and exclusivity,” says Frédéric Panaïotis, Chef de Cave at Ruinart. “We therefore look forward to creating a fantastic experience for all visitors.
