9.6/10 Exceptional! (39 reviews)

This hotel is a perfect combination of luxury and comfort. Designed to convey rustic charm it actually provides high end amenities all round. We got an upgrade on check in. We had room 17 which was absolutely lovely with a large sitting area. The views from anywhere in the hotel are lovely and the staff very helpful.

Lovely property and helpful and warm staff. Close to Aix, but another world away. We stayed during a heat wave, and did not partake in the local biking and hiking, but enjoyed the peace and quiet. Shout out to Angelo at the restaurant who went way out of his way to make us feel at home.
