Breaking news (well, for a certain subset of people anyway): The White Lotus season four will take place in France.
But where, exactly? That is still unconfirmed—and France, famously the world’s most visited country, has a number of high-profile tourist destinations that would make a juicy setting for the hit HBO show. However, just as in prior seasons, we do know that it will likely be filmed at a Four Seasons hotel. (The show and the luxury hotel group now have an official partnership.)
For us prestige TV sleuths, that narrows it down quite a bit: there are only three Four Seasons located in the European country. So without further ado, the shortlist of locations.
Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

Not to be confused with the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat is a grand dame hotel on the peninsula of Cap Ferrat near the town of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. Cap Ferrat has long been a stealth-wealth European getaway, famous for its Belle Époque estates owned by the Rothschilds and Belgian royals. The Hotel du Cap is of equal grandeur: originally built by the son of a carriage operator in the early 1900s, it was soon bought by a wealthy widow who sold it to a pair of hoteliers in 1922. After shuttering in WWII, it emerged as a glittering destination for the world’s elite, such as Picasso and Winston Churchill. While F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Tender Is the Night took place at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc an hour away, The White Lotus could put the second most famous hotel on the Côte d’Azur in the spotlight.
