Presentation

Behind a discreet facade, protected by a few trees and a wrought iron gate, lies Le Clos Raymi, a 19th-century house whose elegance does not seek to impose itself. Built for Mr. Chandon, this former residence retains a peaceful soul and a certain restraint, as if it preferred to let its volumes, materials, and the light that fills the rooms at all hours of the day speak for themselves.

The address is central, yet it escapes the hustle and bustle. You are just a few minutes' walk from the major champagne houses, in a residential neighborhood where life moves at a gentle pace. A garden surrounds the building, offering a few benches and a pleasant terrace when the weather permits. It's not uncommon for breakfast to be served there in the calm of the morning.

Le Clos Raymi offers seven rooms, each unique. Each is inspired by a theme, but without excess, with subtle touches and carefully chosen objects. The furniture evokes the 1930s, with simple lines and weathered materials. Some rooms feature decorative fireplaces that enhance the sense of space and intimacy. Nothing is ostentatious, but every element seems perfectly placed.

The bedding is inviting, the temperature well-regulated, and everything is designed for your relaxation. You’ll find a television, a desk if needed, free Wi-Fi access, and above all, a sense of being in a place steeped in history, without ostentation. This is not an impersonal hotel, but a home tastefully transformed.

The bathrooms also receive special attention: each is equipped with a shower or bathtub, a plush bathrobe, and organic toiletries. There is a discreet yet constant focus on overall comfort. Nothing superfluous, but a commitment to quality that is perceptible in the small details.

In the morning, a buffet awaits you in the dining room. This homemade breakfast varies with the seasons and stands out for the simplicity of the selected products: fresh bread, jams, juices, a few treats, all served in a bright setting. In fine weather, you might prefer the garden, where a few tables allow you to enjoy the morning tranquility.

Le Clos Raymi also offers private and secure parking, a rare advantage in this part of Épernay. You won’t have to worry about your vehicle during your stay. The train station is easily accessible, about two kilometers away, making it possible to consider a car-free stay if you wish.

The general ambiance of the place invites rest. People come here to slow down, to enjoy a certain atmosphere, without constraints. The staff ensures they remain discreet while being available, which enhances this feeling of independence and serenity.

This three-star hotel never overdoes it. It simply strives to do things well. What makes it unique is the blend of an old house's charm and the demand for well-maintained accommodations. An address remembered more for its atmosphere than for its promotion.

If you stay in Épernay, you’ll have the opportunity to discover the famous Avenue de Champagne, just steps from the hotel. It is home to major houses like Moët & Chandon, Mercier, or Perrier-Jouët. Some offer tours, others tastings or a glimpse into their underground cellars.

A stroll through the city center is also worth your time. The neo-Gothic inspired Notre-Dame Church can be discovered while wandering. A little further, Maigret Park offers a welcome green break. It’s a peaceful spot, frequented by both walkers and families.

If you wish to go a bit further, the city of Reims can be reached in about thirty minutes by car. Its cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a must-see. Sacred art meets key moments in French history in this monument of rare intensity.

Back in Épernay, you might also consider visiting the Museum of Champagne Wine and Regional Archaeology, housed in an elegant mansion. This venue provides a deeper understanding of the region's profound connection to its wine production through a contemporary and well-thought-out museography.

Le Clos Raymi caters to those who appreciate quiet, somewhat private places, where charm is not proclaimed but felt. By choosing to stay here, you experience independent accommodations that are both welcoming and discreet, in a city rich in heritage and gentle energy.
