ARRIVAL IN FRANCE
A Discreet and Seamless Welcome
Upon arrival at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, you are personally welcomed by your private chauffeur and assisted with your onward journey.
For guests who prefer complete door-to-door service, your chauffeur can take you directly from the airport to your accommodations in Vichy, allowing you to settle in without changing trains or managing additional transfers.
If you prefer to travel by first-class rail, your transfer to the station and onward arrangements are coordinated for you.
FROM PARIS TO VICHY
Entering France’s Thermal Heritage
Whether you continue by first-class train or private chauffeur, the journey toward Vichy offers a gradual transition from Paris to the landscapes of central France.
By rail, your first-class journey is arranged in advance, with the necessary transfers coordinated as part of your stay. Guests choosing private transportation continue directly by chauffeur.
Nothing feels rushed. Everything feels intentional.
Arrival in Vichy
Your Stay Begins in Vichy
Upon arrival in Vichy, your private transfer takes you directly to your accommodations, where you can settle in and become acquainted with your surroundings.
Set along the Allier River, Vichy is compact, elegant, and remarkably easy to navigate. The thermal establishment, parks, restaurants, and much of daily life are within comfortable reach.
Your first hours are intentionally unhurried — time to unpack, rest after the journey, and prepare for the days ahead.
From here, the rhythm of your thermal stay begins.

Inside The Thermal Establishment
Your thermal program begins with a consultation with the thermal physician, who reviews your needs and establishes the protocol that will guide your stay.
From there, your days follow a structured schedule of prescribed thermal care, which may include mineral-water baths, therapeutic showers, thermal mud applications, aquatic sessions, and other treatments according to your individual program.
Each guest follows a different protocol. The treatments, frequency, and daily schedule are determined according to the physician's recommendations and may be adjusted during the stay.
This is the distinction at the heart of the French thermal experience: your program is prescribed for you, not selected from a spa menu.
A LIVING THERMAL TRADITION
Vichy's Thermal Heritage
Vichy’s relationship with its thermal waters reaches back centuries, shaping the architecture, parks, galleries, and daily life of the city.
Generations have traveled here to follow thermal programs while experiencing a destination built around a distinctive culture of health, rest, and movement.
Today, that heritage remains visible throughout Vichy — not as a recreation of the past, but as a living tradition that continues to define the city.
In Vichy, the thermal experience extends beyond the establishment itself and becomes part of the place.
