5 Bedroom Boutique Spa Hotel/B&B with spacious owners apartment and 7200m2 of land

A small hotel with the size and stress-free life of a bed and breakfast but with the prestige and commercial advantages of a luxury hotel. The company benefits from a dynamic business throughout the year with an annual turnover consistently around €125000. Whilst the business is open over 12 months, the owners enjoy over 160 days of leave/days off per year by choice to maintain a quality family lifestyle.

Chabanettes is an historic 170-year-old inn, famous in this beautiful mountainous region, which has been completely renovated, re-branded and marketed by the current owners as a modern boutique hotel and spa. Consistently in the best hotels in the area in terms of online reputation. The owners have invested nearly €200,000 of their annual profits over the last 10 years to make this property the busy and highly sought-after hotel it is today.

The hotel has 5 very spacious en-suite rooms, all modernised with luxury bedding, soundproofing, excellent thermal insulation and a capacity of up to 14 people in total. 2 double rooms, 2 stunning deluxe double rooms and 1 superior family/group room for up to 6 people. Due to the size and operational organisation of the business, the hotel could easily be re-classified and run as a luxury bed and breakfast if desired. The owners have also added a whiskey and cocktail bar, a modern riverside terrace, a new contemporary 24-cover dining room, and a spa with an outdoor hot tub and infrared sauna that attracts plenty of guests throughout the winter months. Thanks to the way the hotel has targeted its types of guests and positioned itself in the market, guest spending is also very high. The dining room is only open in the evening and could therefore be exploited for lunch if desired as the demand is proven. Over the past three years, the owners have also implemented a business model for weekends only, from December to February, with their highly successful all-inclusive “cocooning spa packages”.

You are not only buying the building and the business, you are also inheriting one of the best reputations in the centre of the France, and the peace of mind that it is already well established on all major global booking platforms, as well as its own SEO-optimised website with a secure online booking system that provides the majority of its customers and therefore reduces the number of costly commissions to agents. A strong social media presence will be inherited, along with all the accounting, food, beverage, and chemical supplier systems that are in place, so there is absolutely nothing you have to do for the next owners to ensure that this business continues as well as it does and provides you with a solid income and hassle-free life. A constant schedule of advance bookings and cash flow are guaranteed for new owners. On-Site laundry and fully equipped industrial kitchen meeting Haccp standards.

The hotel also has strong green credentials and policies, including its own composting system, electric car charging, energy-saving initiatives and is aiming to become carbon neutral. The couple has also invested heavily in the owners’ private apartment which now includes three spacious bedrooms, a mezzanine, a living room of 70m2 including an open plan kitchen and large sitting area, a large bathroom, a modern wood stove, excellent insulation and direct access to your large garden. The property also includes 6500m2 of its own forest
