Auberge du Château de Vaite in Champlive

The Auberge du Château de Vaite in Champlive – A charming inn in the Doubs region
A family story that began in the 1960s

Stepping through the threshold of the Auberge du Château de Vaite in the charming village of Champlive is much more than just entering a hotel. It's sharing the deep love our family has for this region of the Doubs, its art of hospitality, and its generous cuisine.
Nestled on the water's edge in the heart of a magnificent landscaped park, what was once a humble farm in a small village in the Franche-Comté region has become, over the decades, a renowned establishment known for its quality and warm hospitality.
Since the 1960s, we, the Beauquier family, have perpetuated this tradition of hospitality, adapting it to today's expectations. Our commitment? To offer you professional and attentive service, while preserving the convivial atmosphere that is our hallmark.

In the heart of a dreamlike garden...
