50 Hotels in Three Years – and Still Counting.

The Vignette Collection brand of IHG Hotels & Resorts continues to expand at a rapid pace and conquer the field of luxury and lifestyle hotels in Europe.

Now, the brand announces the expected opening of its first hotel in France, a significant move that strengthens its presence on the continent.

The new project, expected to open in 2026, was born from a collaboration between IHG and Global Hotels & Resorts (GHR) and will include two historic and luxurious hotels – Tiara Miramar and Tiara Yaktsa.

These two unique buildings will maintain their charm and history, while undergoing significant upgrades and entering the luxurious Vignette Collection brand, offering top-level hospitality with unique experiences for travelers seeking uncompromising standards.

Dream Location on the French Riviera

The new hotel is located in Théoule-sur-Mer, a picturesque town on the French Riviera, offering breathtaking views of Massif de l'Esterel. Guests will enjoy panoramic views of the Mediterranean coastline, alongside iconic red rock beaches, Michelin-starred restaurants, and a rich luxury experience environment.

Vignette Collection – A Rapidly Growing Luxury Brand

The Vignette Collection brand, launched just three years ago, is an integral part of IHG's strategy to expand its luxury and lifestyle portfolio.

In a short time, the brand has already surpassed the halfway point towards the ambitious target of 100 hotels by the end of the decade, making it one of the fastest-growing luxury brands in the world.

The new hotel in France joins 10 existing brand hotels in Europe, including:

The Halyard – Liverpool

Both opened in the past year and have enjoyed great success among tourists and business people seeking a unique and personalized experience.
