Côte d’Azur Grandeur: The Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel

Cap Ferrat, France
At the far tip of the Cap-Ferrat peninsula, above the shimmering waters of the Mediterranean, the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel stands amongst the most iconic luxury addresses on the French Riviera. With more than a century of history and an enviable location, this property offers guests not merely accommodation but an experience of glamour, sophistication and coastal serenity. 

Location & Setting

Situated at 71 Boulevard du Général de Gaulle, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat (Alpes-Maritimes), the hotel occupies six to seven hectares of landscaped gardens overlooking the sea.  The peninsula’s position means guests enjoy sweeping sea-views from Nice nearly to Monaco, and the sense of isolation paired with high-end elegance is distinctly Riviera. 

Accommodation & Design

The Grand-Hôtel combines Belle-Époque architecture with modern luxury touches. Suites and rooms feature white-toned décor, Murano-glass chandeliers, expansive terraces and high ceilings — each designed to frame the view of sea or garden. Interiors are described as “an opulent mix of Old World grandeur and sleek, pristine modernity.”  Many suites offer private plunge pools or expansive terraces overlooking the Mediterranean. 

Dining, Wellness & Experiences

Culinary offerings are among the most refined on the Riviera: the resort houses multiple Michelin-starred venues and elegant bars, each pairing exquisite cuisine with coastal views. The wellness facilities are equally distinguished — an expansive spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and immersive treatments set in tranquil garden surroundings.  Beyond the hotel grounds, guests might explore the peninsula’s walking paths, private beaches, or simply surrender to the sense of retreat that defines the stay.

If your vision of luxury is rooted in legendary locations, refined comfort and raconteur-worthy views, the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat stands out. For romantic getaways, high-end holidays or simply indulging in Riviera style, this hotel offers a stay that is both lavish and deeply memorable.
