Château de la Chèvre d’Or

About Château de la Chèvre d’Or
Not one building but a run of medieval houses threaded through the village of Èze, 400 metres above the sea on a rock between Nice and Monaco.
The 45 rooms and suites are scattered across the village and reached on foot through lanes too narrow for a car, which is the first thing to tell your guests and the reason this venue suits some weddings and not others.
The Rose Terrace is the main event space and holds 80.
The gardens take a ceremony of 60, the Café du Jardin 50, and the two-Michelin-star restaurant seats 50 when privatised.

We were both delighted to have had the opportunity to stay at this hotel. It is well placed in its locality. It has unique features as if you stepped back in time. A master piece of excellence in its conversion.

Questions about the venue
How many guests can the Chèvre d’Or take?+
Eighty on the Rose Terrace, which is the ceiling for the property. Ceremonies hold 60 in the gardens and 50 at the Café du Jardin, and the two-star restaurant seats 50 once privatised. This is a venue for a wedding under 80 people.
What does a wedding at the Chèvre d’Or cost?+
The hotel publishes starting figures from €64,500 for 50 guests, rising to a stated minimum near €311,000 for 120 across a fuller privatisation. Confirm the current bands with the sales office, because they move with season and format.
How do guests get around the village?+
On foot. Èze is a car-free medieval village of stepped lanes, and the hotel’s rooms are spread through it. Staff carry luggage, but guests walk between the rooms, the terrace and the restaurants, some of it uphill on uneven stone.
Is the venue workable for guests with limited mobility?+
It needs planning. The lanes are stepped and narrow and there is no vehicle access to most of the property. Tell the hotel in advance who needs help; they can allocate rooms nearer the entrance, but the village itself cannot be made flat.
How far is Èze from Nice and Monaco?+
Nice airport is about 30 minutes by car along the motorway or the Moyenne Corniche. Monaco is 15 minutes east, which makes it an easy add for guests and a practical helicopter arrival point from Nice.
