Sleeping in a castle: an unusual stay
Who hasn't dreamed of sleeping in a historic castle, where the stigma of the past meets the comfort of a luxury hotel? Of all unusual stays, a night in a château is probably the most unforgettable. Good news: it's now possible in Haute-Savoie, in one of the rooms at Château de Thorens!
A night in a historic monument just a stone's throw away from Annecy
It's not every day that you wake up to find yourself in the middle of stones that have been standing since the 11th century. Yet it was in 1060 that the first foundations were laid for Château de Thorens, later to become the property of the de Sales family. Sleeping in this medieval castle in the heart of the Haute-Savoie region is like taking a trip back in time to discover the historical heritage it contains.
During your stay, you'll be able to appreciate all the richness of the château's medieval architecture: 12th-century guardrooms, a mid-13th-century keep, the fortified entrance and the superb archive tower, dating from the mid-15th century... A veritable treasure trove of Haute Savoie history.
The comfort of a luxury hotel at the foot of the Alps
From restoration to refurbishment, Château de Thorens has regained its former prestige to welcome guests in a resplendent setting. This 4-star residence features two superb apartments, two resplendent suites and two bedrooms, all with top-of-the-range amenities: remarkable furnishings, breakfast served in the château's dining room, views of the main courtyard and the Usillon valley.
