Where to Stay

With Hôtel du Petit Moulin decked out by French couturier Christian Lacroix, you’d hardly know it was once a bakery. Staying in one of the 17 themed rooms – from boudoir to artist’s studio – is as close as you can get to a peek in the designer’s atelier.

Where to Eat

At the popular restaurant and wine bar Bistrot Mélac, wash down the superb pot-au-feu or the duck foie gras with a glass (or bottle) of the owner’s homemade Château Charonne.
