Overview
The Chèvre d'Or is a unique diva, unaffected by the passage of time, a jewel glimmering in the heavens above the Mediterranean.
In 1953, Robert Wolf was captivated by the Château de La Chèvre d'Or and turned it into a restaurant.
On the advice of Walt Disney, as legend would have it, he bought up the village houses and converted them into rooms. The Hotel then became one of the 6 stopping-off points on the 'Route du Bonheur - Road to Happiness', from which the Relais & Châteaux Association was created.
Different owners would succeed each other and increase the number of guest rooms in the medieval village.
And now the Château de La Chèvre d'Or has 37 guest rooms and suites.
Residences like the Château de la Chèvre d'Or, the former abode of the Riquier family and later of Prince William of Sweden, have been converted into artists' workshops and crafts stores.
You can easily imagine, a century ago, donkeys coming back from the surrounding countryside laden with figs, carob, olives and mandarin oranges from Eze. The bell tower of Sainte-Croix Chapel of the White Penitents stands as a reminder that this village belonged to Provence until the end of the 14th century. The choir of the Church of Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption boasts Baroque décor and an Egyptian cross evoking for Eze the mysteries of the goddess Isis. The aloe, euphorbia and cactus of the exotic garden, created on the hillsides surrounding the village in 1949 by Jean Gastaud, provide the finishing touch to this heavenly spot.
The CHATEAU DE LA CHEVRE D'OR, nestling in the heart of the medieval town of Eze, midway between the Mediterranean and the sky, offers an atmosphere of singular family warmth.
