Hotel terbaik di Maussane les Alpilles

I rarely write reviews but this hotel warrants special attention. I stayed there for 4 nights with 2 of my children who are in their 20s and we all absolutely loved it! It’s a family run hotel which is evident through the warm and detailed level of service. Many thanks to all the family and staff for their superb care and special thanks to Victor who was exceptional! We ate several times at the restaurant and everything we ordered was mouth watering. They only bring in fresh produce so you may not necessarily be presented with the same menu every day which is a testament to the high quality of food you are presented with. The room was large, super clean and comfortable with a lot of wardrobe space and a spacious bathroom with a great shower and bath. There was a beautiful balcony outside with sun loungers and table and chairs. There are 2 pools to choose from. One is almost private - it’s so peaceful and surrounded by beautiful plants and trees. If you want a relaxing and calming break with a great zen vibe, good food and wonderful surroundings this is THE place to go. I would definitely go again and would highly recommend to family and friends without hesitation.

We stayed at Domaine de Manville in September 2023 and had a wonderful 3-night visit. We later planned a return to Provence for September 2024 and reserved 4-nights at the Domaine. We did so knowing that our first visit might have been wonderful by luck and that a return might “regress” to a more mundane experience. But no -- our second visit was even better! Our room was large, beautiful, and meticulously maintained. The grounds were as beautiful as we remembered and the bar/lounge area just as impossible to resist as in 2023. The Concierge went above and beyond to help us plan day trips and to arrange transportation for dinners in St. Remy. And the courteous, welcoming staff at the Michelin-starred restaurant served us truly memorable food and wine. St. Remy and its charms and amenities were close by. We have stayed at other fine hotels near Les Baux and enjoyed them, but Domaine de Manville has been by far the best.

Unfortunately, we did not have the experience we were hoping for at Le Vallon de Valrugues. I think this hotel is misclassed -- it's a solid 4-star experience, but otherwise the luxury is largely skin-deep. Also, the art around the property is egregious and they really need to get rid of those tacky country flags outside 😂 The aspects that met a 5-star standard for us were: 1. The quality of the steak and vegetables at dinner; 2. The overall aesthetic of the outdoor areas (though much of this can be attributed to the natural beauty of Provence); 3. The bed sheets. These are some areas we found especially disappointing: 1. We were placed in a room directly over what we can only assume was the utility area and/or loading dock of the premises. We actually wouldn't have minded the view itself if it hadn't been for the excessive amount of mechanical noise first thing in the morning. As we only stayed one night and were eager to leave, we didn't raise this issue with management. 2. Mandatory valet is not ideal or accessible for everyone who is travelling by car. For people who require more time and personal space -- especially after a long journey -- it's very uncomfortable to have members of staff hovering over you while you disembark. I think more awareness and discretion around the actual needs and preferences of the guests in this regard would improve the quality of service. 3. While most of the staff were courteous, we found our server at The Valrugues Bar to be excessively rude and obnoxious. When we asked to sit outside, this Particular Server insisted that reservations for the outdoor area were fully booked for the entire evening. Not only was this the opposite of what hotel reception had advised us, but we couldn't help noticing that more than half the outdoor tables were empty for the 2 hours or so we were there. Perhaps we can just chalk that one up to quirky seating operations. The rest of the experience, however, was less ambiguous. Despite the rest of the staff being proficient enough in English to help manage our stay and the dinner menu including an English version, this Particular Server claimed not to speak any English at all and then acted like he didn't understand my basic French -- which thus far has been sufficient enough to get me around the entire rest of the country. I may not be able to orchestrate a rocket launch in French, but I can definitely order a meal. Then when we ordered our food, this Particular Server actually PUSHED BACK to say he didn't think what we were ordering was suitable (we wanted to share a salad and a steak) and launched into a long explanation *in French* about what we *ought* to order. Funny behavior for someone who seems so aware of dealing with people who don't speak French. Another behavior we found quite aggressive is that every time he passed our table -- meaning not when he was coming to address us or drop off a drink, but simply passing by to get elsewhere -- he would DRUM HIS HANDS on

A cute accommodation in magical land to explore the beautiful countryside that Provence presents. We chose La Regalido in Fontvielle as we couldnt get reasonable accommodation in Saint Remy where we wanted to base ourselves for our week long visit to Provence. The hotel is a bit difficult to find with myriad of one-way streets around the hotel but once you park at the dedicated spot and get to the hotel, you enter an oasis. We had a large room - and the bathroom equally spacious - but the WC is separately located. This was a bit inconvenient - but we took that on stride. The bed was large and comfortable - pillows great too. The restaurant in-house was pricey but served authentic french three course meal which was magnificent. We decided to have breakfast outside the hotel but there are limited choices in Fontvielle - so it will be better to have the breakfast in-house overlooking the pool and the garden. Unfortunately the spa was not working when we arrived - so the hotel allowed us complimentary parking in lieu which otherwise would cost 20 euros a night. The reception staff were courtious and we had a fantastic stay. Given a choice - I would still stay in Saint Remy simply because of better choice of food and restaurants - but La Regalide is a comfortable and nice accommodation to explore Provence.
