Spanning 52,117 m², the hotel offers 200 elegantly designed rooms with expansive terraces that provide panoramic views of the coastline.

La Flamme, a striking 100-meter-high timber hotel situated on a reclaimed car garage site in the South of France, is redefining the standards of sustainable luxury. The hotel’s design features a partial indoor-outdoor lagoon pool and spa that seamlessly blend with the landscaped surroundings, offering visitors a tranquil and luxurious experience.

The tower’s timber construction, combined with advanced parametric design techniques, ensures optimal energy efficiency. By choosing timber over concrete, La Flamme reduces embodied carbon by 60-75%. Furthermore, sustainable systems such as solar panels, rainwater collection, and geothermal energy significantly slash operational emissions, enhancing the hotel’s eco-friendly credentials. Transforming a polluted site into a vibrant green space contributes an additional 5-15% in carbon savings compared to new builds, solidifying La Flamme as a true icon of eco-friendly hospitality.

Guests can indulge in a range of experiences, whether enjoying a concert from the terrace, relaxing by the lagoon, or dining in world-class restaurants. La Flamme embodies a perfect blend of entertainment, luxury, and sustainability, providing the pinnacle of eco-luxury in one of the world’s most beautiful coastal regions.
