La Maison d'Estournel
It’s set in the Bordeaux wine region, about halfway between the city of Bordeaux and the sea, alongside the Gironde estuary. This is the real-deal wine country, with nothing but green as far as the eye can see. And the grand old 18th-century mansion that houses La Maison d’Estournel certainly looks the part. From the outside it’s an absolute period-piece classic, even as its interiors indulge in a little bit of idiosyncratic personality: first, with Indian antiques, courtesy of its original owner.
And the rooms bear a pronounced contemporary-luxe influence, thanks to designer Alex Michaelis, of Soho House fame. Visually they blend classic opulence with modern focus, and in terms of the comforts they’re state-of-the-art luxury-boutique rooms and suites — just fourteen of them, which ensures the Maison always feels like a maison.
The wine, quite naturally, is among the main attractions — tastings are available in the house’s stunning vaulted cellar, and many of Bordeaux’s finest wineries are set within a short drive. And a hotel like this isn’t complete without an extraordinary restaurant; this one features an open kitchen, allowing diners an unusual view of the chef at work.
