Hotel Crillon le Brave Appoints Chef Christian Delteil, as Hotel Director
January 17, 2011 - Christian Delteil has been named Director at Hotel Crillon le Brave, one of France's most notable boutique hotels. A former chef, Christian will also serve as the leader of the hotel's restaurant team.
The Southern France native brings over 35 years of experience and a profound knowledge of the hospitality industry and French cuisine. Christian established his career with a stint at La Gavroche, a well-known London restaurant, followed by an Executive Chef position at Chewton Glen, where he won his first Michelin star. Over the years, he rose up the ranks and opened his first restaurant, which earned him a second Michelin Star. In the 90's he became Managing Director of Bank Group Restaurants and most recently worked as a consultant collaborating with a number of restaurants and hotels throughout Europe.
As Director, Christian will oversee all hotel and restaurant operations for Hotel Crillon le Brave. The property is a relaxed haven of simple sophistication; made up of seven beautifully restored stone houses dating from the 16th and 17th centuries that are linked by bridges, cobblestone walkways, and hidden courtyards. Embodying the region's famous southern fare, Crillon le Brave's restaurant serves up local dishes such as gigot d'agneau (leg of lamb) and filet de rougets (fresh wild sea bass).
The hotel offers experiential packages throughout the year, including Truffle & Wine weekends, hands-on cooking programs and participation in the yearly Vendanges (grape harvest for wine).
