Food & Beverage

Our goal? To capitalize on our addresses' excellence, simplicity and authenticity to make them fully-fledged destinations in their own right. An essential part of city and community dynamics, whether for travelers or locals.

Aiming for excellence combined with conviviality

Food & Beverage is a key ingredient in our hospitality and has always influenced the reputation of our addresses. But our environment has changed: new travelers hunger and thirst for ever greater simplicity, excellence and authenticity and are demanding and tasteful in the way they choose their addresses.

The worldwide success of cookery programs is evidence of the ever-increasing number of gourmet food enthusiasts. The public have become real experts, and demanding experts at that! Before choosing a venue for lunch or a drink, our guests spend a long time perusing online reviews and ratings. They spend less and less time sitting at the table, but are hungry for simplicity, quality and transparency: they are concerned about the provenance of the food they eat and its impact on their health.

In order to meet all these expectations, we undertook to win people over once more with a tempting new Food & Beverage offering, with lovingly prepared new concepts, fitting in with our teams' strong personalities and we reexamined our procurement. Because we have a firm belief: our restaurants and bars will play a key role in the coming years in building a new form of hospitality that generates emotion and powerful moments.

Bringing pleasure to our guests, responsibly

Healthy, local and responsible eating is a major concern for our guests. And because we are absolutely determined never to disappoint them and always act positively, we have introduced a Healthy and Sustainable Food Charter for our restaurants. This charter is not dependent on labels but is based on sharing our convictions and our commitments and on the local particulars, specific to each.

We do not take this issue lightly. Especially as F&B represents a not-insignificant proportion of our environmental footprint, particularly upstream, at the farming stage, whether in terms of water consumption or our carbon impact. What is the goal of the “Food” element of PLANET21, our social and environmental responsibility program? To offer our guests healthy, sustainable food, whilst eliminating food waste.

F&B, done to a T

One of the key objectives of the revamping of our F&B approach is to create a true area of excellence. We have strengthened the training given to our teams and their managers, with genuine career paths, in order to further increase the warmth and authenticity of the service and welcome offered in our restaurants. We have also been innovative as regards the recruitment methods we use in order to attract people with different talents and individual personalities, for example by organizing casting sessions or allowing each individual to express their passion for customer service… including their culinary creativity. In future, our attractive F&B division will be seen as setting the example for all employers… and for our guests' taste buds too.
