Pros:

The staff were friendly, accommodating and always able to assist.

Cons:

The bed was so comfortable, but unfortunately itchy so I slept on top of the duvet and got ill on something I ate which may have been a bad batch. But everything else was perfect. Thank you.

Excellent rapport qualité-prix à Valbonne
Pros:

Excellent séjour, nous avons particulièrement apprécié la gentillesse et la disponibilité du personnel. Nous avons particulièrement été touchés par les petites attentions laissées en chambre suite à notre signalement d'un souci technique, qui de plus, a été résolu dans la journée.
Les chambres sont propres, spacieuses, bien équipées et nous étions au calme. La piscine a été un vrai plus en pleine période de canicule. L'emplacement est parfait, proche de Grasse, Nice, de nombreux points d'intérêt et de jolis villages.

Cons:

Seul bémol pour nous: la qualité de la charcuterie (et du salé en général) au petit-déjeuner. Elle est très en dessous du reste des produits proposés et nous avons vraiment trouvé cela dommage. C'est un point qu'il faudrait réellement améliorer car cela dénote avec le reste.

Pros:

Отличный загородный отель. Очень удобно, если вы не хотите заезжать в Ниццу, но вам нужно остановиться недалеко от города. Бесплатный паркинг. Удобный заезд и тихая локация. Номер был просторным с большой ванной. Кофемашина в номере. Удобная большая кровать. И нормальная подушка. Отличный завтрак. Приятная зона у бассейна. Персонал очень приветливый и доброжелательный. Вокруг красивая территория, чтобы прогуляться и подышать воздухом.
