Saint-Tropez’s newest hang-out is White 1921, a monochromatic boutique hotel that has opened on the site of the former Maison Blanche. Located in an elegant townhouse on the Place des Lices, the property consists of eight rooms and suites, furnished with crisp white bed linen and Metro bathroom tiles, with contrasting details in dark grey, blue and purple. The hotel’s bar and lounge, designed by Parisian architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte, boasts a great Mediterranean garden setting: customers can sit at a back-lit glass bar, surrounded by jasmine and pine trees, and sample the many vintage champagnes available by the glass while nibbling on white truffle popcorn.
