Overview

• The 'Maison Prestige Roberto Geissini' hotel in Grimaud is set to be auctioned on April 25, 2025, with a starting price of €1.5 million.
• French authorities allege the Geiss family improperly claimed tax benefits between 2010 and 2022, resulting in millions in unpaid taxes.
• The tax debts are tied to a Luxembourg-registered company owned by Robert Geiss, which the authorities claim misused property-related tax advantages.
• Robert Geiss has filed an appeal against the auction, asserting that the tax demands are excessive and expressing confidence in overturning the decision.
• Despite the scheduled auction, the hotel remains operational and continues to promote its services on social media without reference to the ongoing dispute.
