Between Lyon, Grenoble and Geneva, discover a secluded destination, ideal for a weekend break in Isère, a spa getaway in the Rhône-Alpes region or a special moment with family or colleagues. Ideally located at the gateway to the Alps and on the way to the ski resorts, our charming hotel in Isère combines nature, gastronomy and well-being in an exceptional setting, in both summer and winter.
Set in the heart of the park and bathed in light, the château, its outbuildings and restaurants stand amidst lush greenery. Centuries-old trees stand guard over an area designated as a site of ecological, fauna and floral interest, a true haven for a discreet yet teeming natural world where does, foxes, owls, roe deer and other species live in complete freedom.
A peaceful haven at the gateway to the Alps, this little corner of paradise is perfect for both relaxation and outdoor activities: an early morning stroll, a run in the shade of the cedar trees, an outdoor workout, an impromptu game of chess on the giant chessboard or a friendly game on our pétanque court. As your stay unfolds, slow down, breathe and reconnect with what truly matters. Let yourself be carried away by the birdsong, seasonal scents and peaceful atmosphere of the estate, for a true nature escape just one hour from Lyon.
From mid-April to October, our spa hotel, ideally located between Lyon, Grenoble and Geneva, comes to life around its heated outdoor swimming pool, exclusively reserved for hotel guests.
Families are naturally welcome here: children aged 2 and over may access the pool, provided they are toilet-trained or wear a suitable swim diaper.
Enjoy a friendly and refreshing setting, perfect for extending your stay in the region or unwinding between activities, or after a relaxing moment at the spa.
The estate’s history dates back to the late 17th century when Pierre and François Gratet, sons of Pierre Gratet – a bourgeois ennobled by Henry IV – acquired several manors, including that of Dolomieu.
The estate then endured through the centuries, passed down from generation to generation, evolving with the changing times through renovations and extensions. Despite these changes, the château's architectural charm and spirit have remained intact.
Déodat Gratet de Dolomieu was born at the estate on 23 June 1750. He was a brilliant naturalist and mineralogist whose career was to leave a lasting mark. His expeditions and research led him to identify dolomite, the rock that would later give its name to the Dolomites mountain range.
In 2017, the estate underwent major restoration work led by renowned designers. The aim was clear: to restore the château to its former glory while incorporating modern comforts, discreet technology and top-class services.
Today, the 4-star hotel offers three distinct areas: the Château and the Aux Cyprès and Aux Cèdres buildings. They cater to travellers, families, business guests and connoisseurs alike, offering something to suit everyone’s tastes: a historic and refined atmosphere at the Château, or contemporary design and modern comfort in the two modern Aux Cèdres and Aux Cyprès buildings.
The Domaine de Dolomieu is also a conference hotel in the Rhône-Alpes region, offering a range of venues for meetings, corporate events and business gatherings.
In 2023, following this renaissance, the estate officially opened its doors under the Best Western Premier Collection brand.
