L’Auberge du Père Bise

What L’Auberge du Père Bise does

L'Auberge du Père Bise is a privately held luxury hospitality establishment located on the shores of Lake Annecy in Talloires-Montmin, France, founded in 1903 by François and Marie Bise and currently operated by Chef Jean Sulpice and Magali Sulpice under the legal entity ODYLAC SASU (capital 200,000 euros). The property offers an integrated portfolio of hospitality services: a two-Michelin-star gastronomic restaurant (Restaurant Jean Sulpice, 6- or 8-course Alpine tasting menus), a more accessible bistro (Le 1903, named after the founding year), a bar and lounge (Le Marius Bar), a 5-star Relais & Châteaux hotel with 22 rooms and suites, a full-service spa with indoor pool, hammam, sauna, Nordic bath and treatment rooms, an on-site and online boutique selling gourmet products, and a 50 m² seminar space opening in spring 2026. The 51-100 employee operation is marketed toward affluent leisure travelers, gastronomy tourists, wellness seekers, families, and corporate groups, distributed through direct website bookings, the Relais & Châteaux platform, all four major GDS systems (Amadeus, Sabre, Galileo-Apollo, Worldspan), telephone reservations, and walk-ins, with payment processing via Stripe, Paybox, and Credit Agricole.

The business generates revenue across multiple streams: per-night hotel accommodation (pricing not publicly disclosed), restaurant covers at the Michelin-starred venue, bistro and bar spend, spa treatments (€65-330 per service), boutique product sales, gift voucher purchases, and forthcoming corporate seminar fees. Distribution combines sales-led direct booking with partnership-driven travel agency and association channels. Pricing varies by season and is quote-based for rooms, while restaurants operate on fixed-price tasting menus and à la carte (e.g., Le 1903 menus at €85-105 per person excluding weekends).

Technology underpins the operation through SYNXIS/Sabre for hotel reservations, TableOnline for restaurant bookings, Stripe and Credit Agricole E-Transactions for secure payments, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for digital analytics, and a 360° live webcam on the rooftop providing public panoramic views of Lake Annecy, Talloires Bay, the port, and Roc de Chère nature reserve. The property holds two INPI trademarks ('1903 – Auberge du père bise Jean Sulpice' and 'Jean Sulpice') and operates in compliance with GDPR, CCPA via CookieYes, and a French Professional Equality Index of 92% for 2026.
