Les Caves du Roy is the nightclub of the Hôtel Byblos on Avenue Paul Signac in Saint-Tropez, in the Var department of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France. Open since 1967, it is widely described as France's most famous nightclub and has long been tied to the Riviera's celebrity and yachting scene. The club operates mainly during the summer season, with listed hours of daily 23:00 to 05:00 from June to September.
The crowd is affluent and international: yacht guests, holidaymakers, fashion and entertainment figures and well-dressed visitors out for the Saint-Tropez experience. The age range is predominantly twenties to forties. The unofficial dress code is stylish and polished; swimwear, flip-flops and sportswear are likely to be turned away, while smart summer evening wear is the norm. The atmosphere is glamorous, theatrical and image-conscious, with the energy building after midnight and peaking in the early hours.
The music is dance-oriented, built around DJ sets with house and commercial dance styles. Guests come as much to be seen as to listen, and the dancefloor, tables and champagne service all form part of the show.
The drinks programme is premium. Champagne is the signature order, with bottles from around €200, and cocktails and spirits are priced accordingly in the €€€€ bracket. Table service with bottles is the dominant way of spending an evening, and bottle-service tables are the most reliable way to secure entry and a seat.
A cover charge of roughly €50–150 is listed, which usually includes or relates to a drink depending on the night. Reservations are strongly advised, especially in July and August, and the door is selective. Booking a table through the hotel or club ahead of arrival typically eases entry compared with arriving as a walk-in group. Visitors should budget carefully, since a night out here can reach several hundred euros per person.
