Lussac-les-Châteaux, France
Les Orangeries
Les Orangeries earned France's first hotel eco-label, a distinction that runs deeper than a certificate on the wall. The kitchen at this old family house in Lussac-les-Châteaux draws from an on-site vegetable garden and a network of small regional producers, with Olivia Gautier shaping a seasonal menu that treats sourcing as the central discipline. It sits at the quieter end of French gastronomy, where the provenance of a carrot matters as much as the technique applied to it.
