Mirbeau Inn & Spa at The Pinehills

In the past, you might have hopped the Concorde to walk among the lily-filled ponds and gardens immortalized in Claude Monet’s Impressionist paintings. Mirbeau Inn & Spa at The Pinehills saves guests the jet lag and adds a touch of time travel, too. This Old World-style manor house feels like it was transported from the countryside just outside of Paris, where stone fences and warm architectural details are bathed in soft, amiable light. There are just 16 guest rooms in the manor house, including two fairytale turret suites, and all are outfitted with a cozy fireplace and oversized French-style soaking tub. In the converted 19th century Family Chapel, Henri-Marie restaurant preserves an upscale Art Deco ambiance, while a more casual bistro serves up 1930s-style cocktails.
