PASSION PROJECT
Relais & Châteaux's Laurent Gardinier looks back on 70 years
The art of living well, what the French call l'art de vivre, is one of the guiding forces
behind Relais & Châteaux, the collection of 580 independent hotels and restaurants
around the world that launched in 1954. As co-owner of Domaine Les Crayères in
Champagne and Paris restaurant Le Taillevent with his brothers, Laurent Gardinier,
who became president of Relais & Châteaux in 2023, has long cultivated an epicurean
mindset rooted in aesthetics and att ention to the smallest of details.
Gardinier, who sat on the Relais & Châteaux board of directors for 17 years, started
working in the family wine business at a young age. A former offi cer in the French
navy who studied economics, his background is well-suited to a leadership role in
hospitality. " I love all aspects of a hotel. It's gastronomy. It's real estate. It's design. It's
management. It's a special 360-degree business, " he explains.
Relais & Châteaux, Gardinier says, is an organization, not a company, " and I work
in the service of its members. " Some of the small, upscale properties, most of them led
by families, are in urban locations; many are in idyllic, remote sett ings. But they are all
united by " a soul, " he says. " They express the DNA of the local culture and the absolute
passion of the chef, owner, or manager. "
