L'ORANGERAIE

What L'ORANGERAIE does

Hôtel L'Orangeraie is a 3-star Belle Époque hotel operating in central Menton, France, under the Miléade (formerly Vacanciel) hotel brand network. The property occupies a 19th-century palace with a UNESCO World Heritage-classified 1-hectare orange grove garden and sits 400 meters from the sea and 800 meters from the Menton train station, between Monaco and the Italian Riviera. It offers three room tiers (standard, view, and superior) at rates starting from €118/night, an on-site buffet-style restaurant with bar service, a wellness center (Espace Bien-être & Spa) with outdoor heated pool, sauna, hammam, and Phyt's-branded massages, plus 50-space private paid parking, 4 PMR-accessible rooms, and 2 elevators.

The hotel generates revenue through four transactional streams: overnight accommodation (core), restaurant F&B (buffet breakfast/lunch/dinner and half/full-board plans), wellness services (massages, treatments, and a surcharge for OTA-guest spa access), and ancillary parking. Distribution runs through the property's own multilingual (FR/EN/IT) booking website, phone reservations, Booking.com, Expedia, and the centralized Miléade brand platform. Thomas Bourdon serves as Director.

The customer base is dominated by individual leisure travelers and families, supplemented by tour groups and a smaller business-traveler segment. All rooms completed full renovation in 2025, and a new wellness space was launched to reposition the property toward higher-spend wellness and family-stay demand. Pricing varies by season, with peak August 2026 rates reaching €332/night, indicating meaningful seasonality in the underlying revenue mechanics.
