# Toile Blanche

> A 22-suite luxury hotel, declared artwork, and living canvas in Saint-Paul de Vence on the Côte d'Azur. Created and owned by the Leroy Brothers (Nicolas, Gilles, and Gregory), Belgian artists working as a collective since 1997. The Côte d'Azur, without the spectacle. The art is not on the walls, it is the walls.

Toile Blanche is a home away from home, for people who have exceptional homes. It is not a conventional hotel that has acquired some paintings. It is an artwork that also happens to have twenty-two suites, two restaurants, and exceptional rosé. In 2026 the property was formally declared an artwork by the Leroy Brothers. It continues to operate normally as a hotel.
