La Flèche d'Argent – Michelin-Recommended Modern Cuisine in Clermont-Ferrand

La Flèche d'Argent – Royat

Within the five-star Hôtel Princesse Flore in Royat, just outside Clermont-Ferrand, La Flèche d’Argent offers a dining experience that has earned a Michelin recommendation. The restaurant is overseen by Chef Clément Lorente, who orchestrates a style of modern cuisine that draws on the fresh products of the Auvergne terroir while introducing Mediterranean notes.

The setting itself is part of the appeal. The hotel, a late 19th-century building, retains the spirit of the Belle Époque, and the restaurant reflects that same sense of refined calm. It is a place for dinner, where the kitchen’s approach is both grounded in the region and open to southern influences. The result is a menu of discoveries, built on local ingredients and executed with a contemporary touch.

For lunch, the hotel’s other dining space, Le Grand Prix, offers a bistronomic alternative, and on Sundays, a generous brunch. But for the full gastronomic experience, La Flèche d’Argent is the destination. The restaurant is part of a larger wellness-oriented property that includes the Royatonic spa, a bar, and a rooftop lounge with panoramic views, making it a complete destination for those seeking both relaxation and excellent modern cuisine.
