Saint-Martin-de-R\u00e9, the island\u2019s capital, is a UNESCO World Heritage site. You might already have known that, having roamed through its winding streets and port all summer long. This postcard setting is also that of the H\u00f4tel de Toiras (and its twin sister the Villa Clarisse). And you might have also already known that these two Relais & Ch\u00e2teaux,<\/a>\u00a0firmly anchored in the 17th<\/sup> and 18th<\/sup> centuries, have earned their noble acclaim for years now. But what you might not have known is that whilst the Villa Clarisse has just closed its doors for a well-deserved winter rest, the Toiras hotel is going into extra time until the end of October, so that we can discover the Ile de R\u00e9 in All Saints' Day mode (and in SoBARNES<\/a> mode, of course).<\/p>\n Four centuries old, the stone fa\u00e7ades of the H\u00f4tel de Toiras dominate with their rustic elegance the entrance to the port of Saint-Martin-de-R\u00e9. This former ship-owner's residence with its typically Ile de R\u00e9 architecture conceals behind its walls this little gem of a charming hotel, which was the first 5-star hotel in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
