What domaine Dolomieu does

Domaine de Dolomieu is a privately-held 4-star hotel and resort operating under Groupe Épikur (French hospitality conglomerate) and affiliated with Best Western Premier Collection. The property comprises three accommodation buildings — a restored 17th-century château, the contemporary Aux Cyprès wing (housing reception, brasserie, and spa), and the independent Aux Cèdres cottage — set within a 20-hectare park in Dolomieu, Isère, equidistant from Lyon, Grenoble, and Chambéry.

The business operates as a multi-amenity resort across seven revenue streams: hotel accommodation (with most categories including complimentary spa access); three F&B venues (Brasserie Le 205, Bar Elisabeth, and the gastronomic La Table de Déodat launched May 2026); a 700m² Spa by Sothys with pool, hammam, and sauna; a 9-tee pitch & putt course plus François Gillot Academy with PGA-certified instruction and Trackman/Kvest/TPI biomechanics; private and corporate event hire; gift-voucher sales via Secretbox; and EV-equipped parking (60 spaces, €15/day). Reservations are handled through a layered third-party stack — Secure Hotel Booking engine for rooms, ZenChef for restaurants, Booksy for spa, Secretbox for gift vouchers — with a multi-language (FR/EN/DE) direct website offering a best-price guarantee.

The company targets leisure couples, families, wellness travelers, golf enthusiasts, corporate MICE clients, and weddings/private celebrations, marketed through direct digital channels, Best Western distribution, organic social, and seasonal event programming. Recent 2026 milestones include Clef Verte sustainable tourism certification and the launch of the upgraded gastronomic dining and golf practice facilities, indicating active product-line buildout.
