Hôtel Ermitage

St-Tropez


Well, if you really want to hang with the jet set, the hip Hermitage is your kind of place. Self-consciously retro, the decor draws inspiration from St-Tropez’s midcentury heyday: bold primary colours, vintage design pieces and big prints of ’60s icons on the walls. The bar’s as cool as they come, with sweeping views over St-Trop.

Several rooms have been given their own artistic makeover by names like Marc Newson, Chloe Sevigny and Christian Louboutin.
