A hotel that is much more than special

A treasure steeped in history, this private mansion in Salins-les-Bains has managed to preserve its charm and character of yesteryear. A fusion between past and present, each piece is a living tableau telling a story. With this attic ready to be transformed and his tourist accommodation project already approved, he offers endless potential to create your own personalized refuge.

A mansion that preserves the brilliance of the past:
This emblematic private mansion, located in the heart of Salins-les-Bains with a surface area of 400 m², has preserved all its charm of yesteryear. As soon as you arrive, you will be greeted by an ancient, still-functioning fountain that whispers a soft, refreshing sound. This fountain sits at the entrance, which is entirely clad in dressed stone, a testament to the know-how of the time. Then, the superb oak double doors dating from the fifteenth century invite you to discover the hidden treasures of the house. Two imposing stone columns, magnificently restored in 2016, support the upper part of the building. Every architectural detail of the living rooms has retained an authentic character: from the mouldings to the fireplaces, everything has been meticulously preserved to guarantee this private mansion a timeless charm.

The Great Outdoors, a fusion of past and present:
Let yourself be enchanted by the baroque atmosphere that reigns supreme. Whether in the entrance hall, or the living room, medieval elegance is omnipresent. Only some rooms of this house have been renovated with contemporary materials such as the equipped kitchen and one of the bathrooms.
It is on the third floor of this private mansion in Salins-les-Bains that the sleeping area is located. Three beautiful bedrooms with generous spaces where it is good to relax and rejuvenate. The seventeenth-century style, carefully preserved through the centuries, permeates every corner of the sleeping area. Solid wood furniture, wall tapestries, gilded walls add a touch of magic to every room. Add to this a lovely terrace that offers an ideal outdoor space to enjoy the balmy summer evenings. This subtle combination of styles and eras creates a unique environment between the past and the present.

A prime location in a rich cultural heritage:
Ideally located in the very heart of Salins-Les-Bains, a famous spa resort, this private mansion is in the immediate vicinity of the Town Hall and the Marché des Halles, where cultural events and lively markets take place regularly. In front of the house, the superb fountain of Arion dating from 1577, and sculpted in stone by Claude Arnoux enchants passers-by. For gambling enthusiasts, the casino in Salins-les-Bains offers access to a multitude of activities and entertainment. In addition, quaint shops, lively cafes and restaurants dot the surrounding streets. History lovers will be delighted by the diversity of cultural activities and tourist sites nearby. The Salt Museum and the Great Salt Works, historical witnesses of the salt industry in the region, offer a fascinating dive into the city's past.

The attic, a potential to be exploited:
The convertible attic with a surface area of 400 m² offers a 100% virgin space with immense potential ready to be transformed. With the exposed beams, the attic exudes a rustic and authentic atmosphere. Whether it's by turning them into extra bedrooms, an apartment, offices, leisure spaces or artist's studios, with a little creativity they can become the hidden gem of this home. The possibilities for making it an additional space to grow and express yourself are as vast as your imagination.

A gîte project already approved by the municipality:
The idea of setting up a gîte within this mansion aroused palpable enthusiasm, both from the owners and the municipal authorities. After submitting a project file to the city, the positive response received confirms the enormous potential of this initiative. Indeed, transforming this 800 m² residence into a welcoming and warm gîte is a superb opportunity to share the charm and history of Salins-les-Bains with visitors from all over the world. This cottage promises an immersive experience in the very heart of local history and life. The city's cobblestone streets, historic buildings, and iconic sights are within easy reach, providing total immersion for those who would have the privilege of staying there.
