Photos by NICOLAS MATHEUS best of 2022 Mutigny Resort Hotel France Overlooking the lush hills of France's Champagne region, the 101-room spa hotel is a lesson in minimalism with natural materials-including sustainable poplar wood that wraps the exterior-cultivating a raw and honest dialogue with the landscape. Warmed by oak panels that line the interior mezzanine, the communal hub of the property is centered around the fireplace, inviting guests to linger and take in views of the verdant hillside from the floor-toceiling windows and skylights.
