Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and lovely with a private balcony providing both sun and shade, although there was a slight issue with plug-ins. The service was exceptional, and the location was fantastic, offering easy access to cafes, restaurants, and shopping. The dining experience was fantastic, but a bit pricey. The overall value for money was still excellent, making it a great choice for a relaxing getaway.
The hotel's location is fantastic, with easy access to shops and restaurants, but the room needs a makeover. The service was friendly and professional, although there was a hitch at the end. The dining experience was delightful, offering a variety of tasty options. Overall, a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The room was spacious and lovely, with a private balcony that provided both sun and shade. The central grass area faced the church square, adding to the charm of the view. The service was exceptional, and the location was fantastic, right in the middle of the town. The dining experience was fantastic, with a variety of delicious options offered. Overall, a great choice for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
The hotel's location is unbeatable, just a few minutes' walk to the market, the old city, shops, and restaurants. The rooms, though lacking some plug-ins for electronics, were still comfortable and faced a pretty, quiet courtyard. The service was friendly and helpful, but a minor issue took away from an otherwise pleasant experience. Dining was decent but not the most lavish. Overall, a great pick for exploring Saint Remy de Provence and the surrounding areas.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although appearing tiny due to furniture overload, have private balconies and are complemented by an excellent staff and wonderful breakfasts. The hotel's landscaped garden courtyard with a fountain and a central grass area adds charm, and even the cheapest rooms are spacious enough. However, there was a service issue that led to a somewhat frustrating situation during check-in. Despite this, the location is perfect for exploring St Remy, being just a couple of minutes' walk from the center of the charming town. The dining experience, while adequate, fell short compared to other options in Provence.
My stay was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were a bit dinghy but surprisingly comfortable. The service was superb, and the staff were very accommodating. The location was excellent for exploring St Remy, and the hotel is in a great spot for day trips. The dining experience was an indulgence, although a bit pricey. The facilities were satisfactory.
