Le Grand Quai - All the splendor of the Belle Epoque awaits diners here whether for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The walls are enlivened by gentle trompe l'oeil rural scenes, heavy red and gold taffeta drapes hang voluptuously from the ceiling and all lit up by a grand chandelier. In summer tables are also set up outside on the cobbled square. Cuisine is mainly classical French.
Bar - This quiet low lit piano bar opens onto the right side of the lobby, separating it from the Le Grand Quai restaurant. Guests plunge into leather armchairs or perch on a bar stool, gently accompanied in the evening by a some melodious tinkling on the grand piano.
Le Bistropôle - Opened in May, 2004, this reaturant offers sandwiches and wines by the glass in a contemporary setting.
