The story
In the village of Lembach, within the Vosges du Nord Regional Park, the Cheval Blanc occupies a building that has stood since 1822. Originally a coaching inn, this Alsatian house has been a destination for generations. Since 2008, chefs Carole and Pascal Bastian have written its latest chapter, shaping it into a four-star hotel and a Michelin-starred restaurant.
The dining room serves as the setting for Pascal Bastian’s cooking. His modern cuisine is described as characterful, balanced, generous, and audacious. The foundation is local terroir, with occasional accents from other regions of France and beyond. The result is plates that surprise and provoke emotion, served in an atmosphere that balances intimacy and conviviality.
The restaurant is a fixture of the Alsatian gourmet landscape, holding one Michelin star and three toques from Gault&Millau. It suits a romantic dinner, a family lunch, or a business meal. For a complete stay, the property also offers a spa and twenty-one rooms and suites, making it a natural stop for those exploring the region less than an hour north of Strasbourg.
