YOUR "COVID-SAFE" STAY AT LILY OF THE VALLEY
Ever since it opened in July 2019, Lily of the Valley has been dedicated to providing you with moments of pleasure, well-being and serenity. We are committed to taking care of you, and within the context of the current global pandemic, this commitment is stronger than ever. That's why, over the past few weeks, we've been working closely with our consultant, Jacques Fricker, so we can implement rigorous hygiene measures and ensure that you can stay with us safely. We can now welcome you to our hotel in pleasant and reassuring conditions, in the knowledge that we are doing absolutely everything to keep you safe with us.
Rigorous hygiene measures
In communal areas, our cleaning team regularly disinfects contact surfaces (handles, light switches, taps, faucets, etc.), in order to prevent transmission of the virus through contaminated hands. We've also strengthened our team so that, every hour, they can disinfect surfaces on couches, armchairs and tables in reception areas and restaurants. As for our wellness areas, our treatment rooms are thoroughly cleaned between treatments, all linens are changed, and the massage table is disinfected between clients and covered with a sterile material, which is changed for each new client.
Your room is disinfected every morning by the room service team, who are always wearing masks, face shields, gloves, and shoe covers. Particular attention is paid to contact surfaces, such as the TV remote control and the telephone. Once the room has been cleaned, it is "sealed" in order to indicate to other Lily of the Valley employees that it is no longer possible to enter the room without compromising the disinfection. The turn-down service is provided by staff members wearing protective clothing to avoid any contamination. Your room can be disinfected again in the evening on request. All hotel linens are owned by Lily of the Valley and are cleaned by our in-house laundry. This enables us to ensure they are handled by a limited number of laundry workers, while also allowing us to check that everything is thoroughly and efficiently cleaned.
Respecting social distancing
Restaurants have been rearranged to ensure a safe distance between tables. Similarly, deck chairs are spaced further apart so that you can enjoy the pool areas safely.
Waiting areas have been created, to avoid lines at the reception desk and in the wellness area. During busy times, we can seat you comfortably while you wait for a member of staff to take care of you.
We have also made the decision to limit the number of people allowed in the fitness room at the same time. This room is available exclusively for hotel guests. You are advised to book a time slot with the staff at our reception desk or wellness area, or with one of our coaches, so that you can enjoy your fitness session while respecting distancing measures. Throughout the day, our cleaning team regularly cleans the fitness room. All fitness equipment, as well as the floor, walls and contact surfaces, are kept disinfected.
To encourage guests to practice their fitness routines outside, where they can put aside any concerns about virus transmission, we have increased our range of outdoor activities, and have a wide selection available throughout the day. Accompanied by one of our coaches, you can now head to the Cap Lardier forest for some mountain biking (using an electric or standard mountain bike), go running through the vineyards (with your coach to encourage you), or discover the hiking trails in the region as you enjoy some walking meditation in the company of your coach.
Provision of protective materials
Whether you stay with us for a few days or a few hours, Lily of the Valley will provide you with a protection kit comprising two masks (per day and per person), latex surgical gloves, hydroalcoholic gel and disinfectant wipes. Hydroalcoholic gel is also available for you to use in the various communal areas (reception areas, restaurants, washrooms, cloakrooms, terraces, etc.).
All members of staff must wear protective equipment: gloves, mask, and face shield. This equipment is changed several times a day. Room service teams must change gloves and shoe covers every time they change room. The body temperature of our staff members is also checked when they enter the hotel.
"TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF": THE MISSION OF LILY OF THE VALLEY, NOW MORE THAN EVER
The vocation of Lily of the Valley can be summed up in a few words: "Take care of yourself." When you come to Lily of the Valley, it's because you want to take time out to take care of yourself – and you entrust us with this mission. Now, more than ever, our dedication to taking care of you is particularly important.
Space, nature, and care
Lily of the Valley is the perfect destination for anyone who wants to recharge their batteries and feel renewed and restored – so it's just what many of you need after spending weeks in lockdown. Surrounded by pine forests, sunshine, and the Mediterranean, you can breathe in the sea air and the fragrant scrubland as you gaze at the nature all around you. The rooms are located within "houses," without internal corridors, while the terraces provide plenty of private, outdoor space. It's a world away from the claustrophobic atmosphere of lockdown, which will soon be nothing but a distant memory. With a surface area of 37 to 115 m², each room opens onto its own spacious terrace with a table that's perfect for an intimate dinner, as well as a large "sunbed" that's big enough for two and ideal for a sumptuous siesta...
Take the time you need to feel good again…
If the past few weeks have taken a toll on you and left you feeling tired, the team at our Shape Club is here to help get you back to your normal, healthy self again through a customized program based on your personal objectives – whether you want to boost your natural defenses, detox your body or restore your physical strength. Through sport, expert treatments, and massage, we'll help you to achieve your goals.
…or to lose weight gained over the past few weeks
For many French people, the lockdown left them with lots of time for home cooking and comfort food, with inevitable consequences for their waistline... If you've put on a few extra pounds, our chef and dietician can give you dietary advice and put together weight loss menus to help you get your body back to the shape you want.
REMOTE WORKING AND COWORKING AT LILY OF THE VALLEY: YOUR OFFICE IN A LUXURIOUS SETTING THAT'S CONDUCIVE TO WORK
Throughout the lockdown, many of us have been working remotely – and many of us have found it to be both pleasant and effective. While the pandemic continues, the French government is encouraging people to carry on working remotely if possible. Lily of the Valley combines business with pleasure by bringing your office to you...
Lily of the Valley has created an environment that's perfect for remote working…
While each room is already equipped with a comfortable desk, a table inside and another on the terrace, Lily of the Valley has also found a way to transform its main restaurant (outside mealtimes) into a large, luminous, coworking space that looks onto the Mediterranean.
You can share one of our long, high tables, enjoy the comfort of a bench seat by an individual table, or sit on the terrace in the shade of the pine trees. Take your calls, manage your emails, organize a video conference... and let our team provide you with refreshments. Discreet staff, soft music and a studious atmosphere come together to create a luxurious and productive coworking space.
…with the help of 4 GB dedicated fiber internet access
Upload, download or do videoconferencing with the help of our dedicated fiber internet connection, with a speed of up to 4 GB. Lily of the Valley is one of the few hotels in the region that offers such high-quality internet access. The hotel is also equipped with numerous Wi-Fi extenders so you can move around the hotel without the risk of losing your connection.
And because it's always nice to relax at the end of the day, the Netflix app is installed on the televisions in each room, so you can carry on watching your favorite series (which you began during the lockdown) after a day of hard work!
