Just an hour from Paris, the Vexin français regional park is the perfect destination to relax for a weekend, far from the hustle and bustle of the capital. With its castles and vast estates, this region invites you to escape to settings that are almost princely yet always authentic. We've made a selection for you of most beautiful Hotels of Vexin.
The Château de la Bûcherie
One hour from Paris, hidden between the woods and hills of the Vexin, the Château de la Bûcherie is the discreet theater of the French art of living, with a history dating back to the 20th century. On this confidential 65-hectare estate, bourgeois style dialogues with nature, between Haussmannian walls and poetic ponds, without falling into ostentatious clichés. Its 33 rooms reveal the soul of a family home: antique woodwork, antique furniture, natural light caressing floral fabrics. Le Moulin, an independent gîte nestled at the edge of the lake, complete the offer with charm, evoking holidays of yesteryear, in a peaceful country setting. On the dining side, restaurant From the hotel, chef Valentin Bouilleveaux sublimates the garden's harvest in a refined locavore gesture, served facing the canopy. Nestled between a hidden library, stone vaults, and a hushed atmosphere, the experience is immersive, almost timeless. A place to reconnect with the essential, with grace.

The Corniche Estate
Close your eyes and imagine: a suspended dwelling with the tranquil meanders of the river as its horizon. This is what Domaine de la Corniche, just an hour from Paris, offers. This four-star establishment, founded in the early 20th century, is perched on a chalk cliff, inaccessible to hustle and bustle. Visitors come for its Michelin-starred restaurant, cleverly named Le Panoramique, given the exceptional view of the surroundings. Orchestrated by Chef Gaëtan Perulli, the cuisine is a carefully revisited take on French culinary tradition. Le Belvédère, on the other hand, focuses on brunch and buffets, while Le 20 du Domaine celebrates grandma's cooking in a decor found in flea markets. Spread across several pavilions of understated luxury, the 43 rooms complement the hotel's 600m² spa with a hammam, sauna, and suspended pool, as well as the cinema, tennis court, and kids' club. A typical slow travel destination where everything comes together for a delightful weekend.

The Gardens of Epicurus
A few kilometers from Giverny, ideal for a Weekend less than 1 hour from Paris, Nestled in a clearing on the banks of the Epte River, Les Jardins d’Épicure reveals a secluded estate where romance flirts with hedonism. Three 19th-century buildings – Castel Napoléon III, Villa Florentine, and Anciennes Écuries – house 20 rooms and suites, some with private jacuzzis, such as the alluring Suite Marquise or the themed accommodations blending exoticism with mountain cocooning. In the tree-lined park, a pool invites leisurely strolls before surrendering to the calming rituals of the hotel's spa: hammam, on-demand massages, and bubbling baths. Under the chic bohemian glass roof of the gourmet restaurant, between velvet banquettes and a green ceiling, the chef's cuisine is bold and creative: truffle-infused beef medallion with a rich jus, lemongrass-smoked lobster… Here, epicureanism finds its home in a bucolic setting.

Hermitage Castle
In Ennery, at the gateway to the Vexin and the Valley of the Impressionists, the Château de l’Hermitage reflects these 18th-century manor houses, carefully renovated and with a discreet charm. Nestled in a wooded park, the three-star hotel offers 13 neo-classical style rooms, a touch princely, including a refined suite with generous volumes. We love the hotel's 9-hole, 600-meter golf course as well as the 15-station driving range, perfect for a sporty break before a canoe trip on the Oise or a detour to the landscapes painted by Van Gogh. In the evening, head to the restaurant Le Club, a hushed setting where French gastronomic classics are reinterpreted. The Château de l’Hermitage offers a suspended weekend in nature, where you take the time to stroll through the gardens and reconnect with yourself.

Maudétour Castle – Tilleul Estate
Nestled in the heart of the Vexin Natural Park, Château de Maudétour has lost none of its former splendor. Classified as a Historic Monument, this majestic 17th-century building seems suspended in time, surrounded by 14 hectares of perfectly manicured lawns, peaceful woodlands, and shaded pathways. Twenty rooms, including three suites, are tucked away between the castle wings, old outbuildings, and secondary pavilions. Inside, every detail is an elegant replica of a bygone era: floral fabrics, canopied four-poster beds, and patinated furniture with aristocratic curves. A unique atmosphere emanates from it, a true journey. There is no gourmet restaurant here, but a delicately served breakfast is offered, as in a grand family home. Splendor and authenticity perfectly summarize this heritage site.
