Wonderful stay
Pros:

One of the best experiences in service we have ever had for the hotels. Love the design and the quality of it. The receptionists are amazing, super helpful, super kind. The waiters were very helpful with what to do in St Barth. If we come back to this island, would definitely stay here!

Horrific!!!!!!
Pros:

Horrific. I come to St Bart's every year and stay with friends near this hotel. Tonight was my third visit to Topical since they opened and unlike my two previous visits this one was horrific. Tonight all I wanted was a glass of wine or two in their lobby lounge. A middle-aged woman helped me find a table and I never saw her again. Nor did anyone else approach me for my order. I had to take myself up to the bar (I am almost the oldest Baby Boomer, so I am a little creaky) to ask for the wine, which was given to me at the bar, not brought to my table. There were one or two young men scurrying around the room, lighting candles but not the one at my table, and none of them ever said a word to me; I was completely ignored. I have often gone to the Remy bar at the Eden Rock, which is just down the hill; there I am always greeted, seated, order taken, and given a dish of something to nosh on. How Tropical can call itself a 5-star hotel is a mystery.. Maybe those who rate it highly have never been to a real 5-star place. When I finally asked a few young men if any of them was the manager, and none of them were, they listened to my complaint but I believe I heard the words "shift change". I had to teach them that an apology accompanied by an excuse is no longer an apology. I will never go to this hotel again.

Paradis sur Terre, saison 2
Pros:

I had warned everybody that we would return! Our 2nd visit to the Tropical Hotel St Barth didn't disappoint any of us. This second stay was chill and peaceful and perfect, once again. A special thanks to Pauline, Kelly, Marion and Barbara for their warm welcome and very good work. My daughters had the best idea ever: they offered me a facial treatment with Valérie . She is a kind of magician and my hour spent with her was definitely one of my best moments in St Barth. As we say in French, jamais deux sans trois, see u soon then!

Most amazing hotel and staff in St. Barths
Pros:

I can't say enough amazing things about this hotel, and as I live in NYC my standards are a bit high, and wow wow wow Tropical Hotel far exceeds expectations. Not only are the hotel, the rooms, the view gorgeous, but the staff are beyond fabulous, they truly go above and beyond! I have stayed at this hotel several times (I've stopped counting :)) over the past two years, and the price is worth every penny. The standards here are so high that they have made traveling to other hotels around the world fail by far in comparison. The food here is beyond delicious! Your day starts with complimentary breakfast, and let me tell you that delicious doesn't even cover it, I think of their crispy bacon when away :) It is a good portion of food and drinks that you really don't need to worry about lunch which is nice. The hotel is write up the hill from the nicest strip of beach in St. Jean so you can easily walk there, and there is plenty of shopping there too. Or if you prefer a relaxing day at the hotel pool is an option. I am more of a beach person, but only here do I find myself spending some of my days at there pool instead because it is so nice and the service and food and drinks amazing at the pool. And in the last year they now have the most amazing spa services. I first tried the kobido facial massage here and wow wow wow, you can't find this caliber in all of NYC. The other massages and services are amazing, it is a special technique that you won't find elsewhere. Barbara and Pauline are just two of such a great team, and they feel like family at this point, even helping me to get a hold of a helmut to use! To say they go above and beyond is an understatement. Everyone is there for you 24 hrs a day. Their recommendations for places to visit is always super helpful, they arrange your taxi in advance, super responsive on WhatsApp 247. And the rooms are so lovely, just perfect and comfortable. As you can see I could go on forever about how fabulous this hotel is! I should add also as I work remotely I have spent time working from here, and the wifi is amazing, and room service is great so you can work and eat in privacy and comfort when you need to. In the past I had stayed at other hotels with wifi not so great, and while working this is key! I can't wait to return in 2026! You can't go wrong staying here, I promise!

Issue
Pros:

we experienced serious issues regarding payment and refund.
Despite multiple follow-ups, the refund that should have been processed was never completed.
In addition, the attitude and communication style of some staff members were unprofessional and unhelpful.

Boutique experience and high-class service
Pros:

Conveniently located (by St Jean Beach), this boutique gem offered a great room, delicious breakfast, and dedicated concierge service. The pool is a little small (didn’t use it at all) but not a big deal since the beach is 2mins away. Would stay here again!
