Hotel terbaik di Mormoiron

This is a beautiful hotel that unfortunately falls far short. It is eye watering to stay here and we booked it as a really lovely treat. The service was terrible. The front desk got the check in time wrong and we couldn’t access our room when we arrived, there was 0 service around the pool despite being told you could order a drink there. I had to go into the hotel to find someone, and the person I was directed to to order from didn’t know the drinks menu in either English or in French so it was a nightmare trying to order anything and the poor girl seemed completely put on the spot by the front desk. The breakfast is far too expensive for what is a serve yourself buffet (it cost over €40 for 2 people to have a coffee and a croissant). We left our pool towels in our room when we checked out only to be told we had to go and get them and that for some unknown reason they couldn’t just be sent to the laundry with the rest of the items up there. It took 20 minutes to check out as there was only one member of staff at the desk. The carpark (which is €15 a day) is barely accessible due to a ramp that almost takes the front off of your car. We have a VW camper so if you have anything that sits lower you won’t get it in the carpark. It cost over €300 to stay here for one night and we didn’t feel like the stay came close to any sort of value. The only good thing about it was the pool is lovely and so was the room. Honestly, book somewhere else where you’ll get value for money.

We stayed 4 nights in Room 33 ”La Tour” which is the best room in the hotel (we asked reception at checkout if we were to return if there was another comparable suite and she said she loved 33 the best). The room was outstanding, terrace, twin side by side tubs, upstairs bedroom, shower with room for two, gorgeous views over the valley to Mount Ventoux, it was ideal for romance. Crillon le Brave is rather isolated and that makes the hotel restaurant the most convenient option for meals. Breakfast was a rather simple cold buffet with the only hot option being boiled eggs that you made yourself. We food the lunch food to be very good and tasty. Dinner was a bit of a letdown, there was not one ”wow” dish in the 4 dinner meals we ate there, by the last night we were contemplating finding somewhere off the property to eat dinner but didn't want the hassle of driving or risking it after having some wine with dinner (roads in Provence are rather narrow). One minor issue we had was with housekeeping. The ”La Tour” room is all about the twin tubs and we made good use of them, quickly using up the body wash and shampoo. The maids never seemed to leave enough replacement soap even after calling to request more. This is a minor issue but at 740 Euros/night thought they could have been a bit more generous, next time we will pack a big bottle of bubble bath to take with us. Would have been nice if the hotel had included some extra bath amenities with the room though (bath salts, bubble bath, etc). We would love to return here some day and stay in the same room.

Pour les plus : un style, une gestion familiale bienveillante et à l’écoute, des chambres très vastes avec même des quaduples pour les familles, un emplacement idéal en milieu rural sur l’un des principaux accès au Ventoux, local à vélos, tarifs en bas de la fourchette des prix en Vaucluse, à savoir chambres doubles à 75€ et petit déjeuner semi continental à 9€. Il y a aussi un restaurant mais je n’en dirai rien n’ayant pu le tester pour cause de « fermeture exceptionnelle » lors de mon séjour. Quant aux « moins », ils sont sans surprise les corolaires des « plus », à savoir le bruit, pas celui de l’extérieur car le trafic est nul la nuit sur la route du Ventoux mais le bruit de vos voisins de chambre car malgré les gros murs d’époque c’est très mal insonorisé : par chance mes voisins se sont rapidement endormis ! Ensuite la chaleur en plein été sans clim. Il y a quand même des ventilos mais ils ne peuvent pas tout. Il y a aussi l’escalier plus que centenaire, typique des bastides, joli mais pénible à monter avec des grosses valises et compliqué pour les PMR. Pour terminer la salle de restaurant plutôt tristounette. Mais l’été on mange dehors. En conclusion une bonne adresse pour les inconditionnels du « c’était mieux avant », qui pourront vérifier si l’adage est vrai, les amateurs d’histoire hôtelière ou tout simplement pour tous ceux qui, en fonction de leur goûts et capacités physiques et financières y trouveront leur compte. Pour ma part, très satisfait.

The previous reviews aren't wrong! Our room was great - bigger than we expect in France - and very comfortable. The wonderful woman on reception was brilliant and helped us book a table in the only restaurant open on a Sunday night in Carpentras (it was a great meal, by the way!) The garage is secure and is, it must be said, a couple of minutes' walk away. But there is a little driveway at the front of the hotel so you can load/unload with ease. I was just glad to have secure parking! Breakfast was good, with plenty of choice and a calm a**osphere. All in all, a good choice if you're stayingg in Carpentras!
