Como Hotels and Resorts to open first property in Bordeaux

Como Hotels and Resorts is set to make its debut in Bordeaux as it assumes management of the 19th-century Cordeillan-Bages estate.

Following a period of renovation, the property will reopen under the Como umbrella on May 1.

It will be the brand’s third outpost in France, joining Como Le Montrachet in Burgundy and Como Le Beauvallon in Saint Tropez, which is set to open on April 24.

Como Cordeillan-Bages will feature 28 rooms and suites, including two signature Como Suites, as well as a restaurant, outdoor pool, gym and sauna.

Guests will have exclusive access to experiences at Château Lynch-Bages, as well as some of the world’s “most-renowned” vineyards and the village of Bages.

Olivier Jolivet, chief executive of Como Holdings, said: “Following the success of Como Le Montrachet, we are delighted to expand our presence in another of the world’s great wine regions.

“The Médoc’s heritage and craftsmanship resonate strongly with Como’s values and with Como Cordeillan-Bages, we will reimagine Bordeaux’s traditions through a contemporary expression of quiet luxury in the heart of the Médoc”.
