Destination Gourmande

What Destination Gourmande does

Destination Gourmande is a French boutique hospitality group operating under the holding company Atout Seine, SARL (SIRET 494 225 956 000 15), headquartered at 5 route de la Corniche, Rolleboise. The group runs six wholly-owned establishments across the Yvelines and Eure departments along the Seine Valley near Giverny: Domaine de la Corniche (a charming hotel with a Michelin-starred gastronomic restaurant, a wine bistro, and the Spaquana wellness center); La Ruche (a bakery-patisserie combined with hotel and restaurant services in Rolleboise); Les Ruchettes (three satellite bakery-patisserie outlets in Pacy-sur-Eure, Gasny, and Vernon); Le Moulin de Fourges (a riverside auberge with traditional cuisine, spa, and uniquely decorated rooms, operating seasonally from late March to late October); La Base (a daytime restaurant and evening bar in Vernon); and Les Canisses (a hotel and restaurant in Saint Pierre la Garenne). The group was previously known as Destination Giverny and is led by Jérôme Crepatte as Gérant of Atout Seine SARL.

The company's offerings are organized around three thematic experience concepts: Côté Papilles (dining, including cafés, gourmet meals, and artisanal ice cream), Côté Chill (wellness including spa and hotel accommodations), and Côté Énergie (leisure, swimming, sports, and entertainment). The business model is direct-to-consumer hospitality through physical properties, with revenue streams spanning hotel accommodations, restaurant dining, spa and wellness services, leisure activities, bakery-patisserie sales, and event hosting (receptions and seminars). Distribution combines direct property visits, telephone reservations, and partner platforms including Lafourchette.com for restaurant bookings and Avail pro for hotel channel management. The group operates a unified loyalty program administered by Adelya in which 1 euro spent equals 1 point and every 500 points converts to a €20 voucher redeemable across all properties.

The technology stack is entirely third-party and comprises Bétisoft (PMS for rooms, tables, and billing), Sales Force (CRM and database), Avail pro (hotel channel manager), Qualitelis (pre/post-stay surveys), and Adelya (loyalty plus newsletter/SMS campaigns). No proprietary technology platform is disclosed, and Google Analytics is the only data-collection tooling mentioned on the website. Customer segments are led by leisure and wellness travelers (individuals and couples seeking multi-experience getaways), with corporate event planners (séminaires et réceptions) as a secondary segment. Geographic scope is regional, limited to Île-de-France and Normandie in northern France.
