Located on avenue des Trois-Dauphins in Le Lavandou (83), Hôtel Les Roches is linked to the town's seaside history and the golden legend of the Côte d'Azur. Set between sea and sky, this five-star establishment, which today boasts 40 keys, was founded in the 1930s, at a time when the Mediterranean resort boomed. Over the decades, the hotel has evolved. It was first enlarged in the 1950s, then extended in the 1980s. The site's identity was built through juxtaposition, combining white rendering, blue shutters, cut-out volumes and, above all, a strong presence of local Bormes-les-Mimosas stone. Over time, the site has gradually drifted away from contemporary standards of comfort and sophistication. In 2009, a French family-owned hotel group acquired the property and entrusted its renovation to the PietriArchitectes agency.
