Une belle adresse au coeur de la Provence
Pros:

Etablissement très bien situé, centre-ville accessible à pied. Magnifiques jardins bercés par le chant des cigales, personnel aux petits soins. Buffet du petit-déjeuner somptueux. Chambre simple, climatisée, efficace et calme si au dernier étage (nous avions la vue sur la piscine).

Cons:

Les extérieurs, bien que superbes et reposants, manquent d'entretien. Il y a énormément de fientes d'oiseaux un peu partout, notamment au bord de la piscine, cela dénature vraiment le lieu. Le mobilier d'extérieur était parfois taché, vieillissant, les tentures elles aussi crottées. La piscine justement mériterait aussi un rafraîchissement car le fond est décoloré.

Wer nach Aix en Provence fährt sollte nur dieses Hotel nutzen
Pros:

Die Zimmer sind gross genug, die Installationen sind neu vor allem die Aircondition war sehr gut.
Das Frühstück ist auf der Terrasse mit Blick in den Park nicht zu übertreffen. Das Angebot des Frühstücks war gross und ie Eier wurden auf Wunsch frisch zubereitet.
Also erholung pur

Ein schöner Ort zur Entspannung
Pros:

Wunderschönes Anwesen mit erholsamen Garten, sehr gutes Restaurant, Entspannung am Pool

Cons:

Manches in die Jahre gekommen..wir hatten dieses Mal 2 Einzelzimmer da ansonsten voll, und waren doch erstaunt, wie eng und schlecht gestaltet die Bad Situation ist. Eigentlich keine Ablagemöglichkeit und so eng, also nicht komfortabel. Schade fanden wir auch, dass das Haus innen so runter gekühlt ist, das braucht es aus ökologischen Gründen und zum Wohlfühlen nicht. Wir hatten den letzten Abend unser Dinner innen, da draußen Gewitter. Es war nicht sehr gemütlich. Aber sehr nettes Personal.

Excepcional hotel
Pros:

Todo en este hotel me encantó. Las instalaciones son hermosas, la decoración es de excelente gusto. Nos hospedamos en una villa con piscina casi exclusiva. El desayuno en la terraza del parque era una belleza, la cena en cualquiera de los dos restaurantes buenisima. Todo el personal es muy amable y dispuesto a ayudar.

Cons:

Nada podria haber ido mejor

Disappointing rooms, bad service, overpriced
Pros:

The gardens are beautiful. The breakfast was good.

Cons:

We were in a deluxe room, or had booked one. The first room we were given was genuinely one of the worst rooms I’ve seen in -any- hotel nevermind a 5 star hotel. It was in the ‘Villa’ aka not the main hotel. It was barely decorated and felt like a 3 star hotel. We complained - it was insane to spend over £600 a NIGHT to stay in this unpleasant, uncomfortable room. So we were moved to a deluxe room in the main house… with no shower, only a bath. Tiny not very nice bath pictured. I’m pregnant and can’t take hot baths. We were told by a frankly incredibly rude manager (not even receptionist) that this was somehow our fault for now knowing that this hotel has rooms with baths OR showers. Apparently we were meant to know that! So we had a pretty small room with no shower. Finally someone sensible on staff said why don’t we just give them a cheaper room with a shower. The cheaper room - over £150 cheaper - was nicer than the deluxe room. Same size room but bigger nicer bathroom, with a lovely shower. It was literally across the corridor. It was an insane experience. So I’d never go back and it was a waste of money. We spent the prior week at Villa Saint Ange which was 10 minutes away, cheaper and 10 times nicer.

Beautiful property, but not worth the price tag
Pros:

The gardens were beautifully landscaped and the hotel itself was clearly thoughtfully designed

Cons:

The bartending staff seemed inexperienced, did not come take out drink order, and forgot to prepare our drinks after we ordered at the bar. We made a reservation at the front desk for dinner, and there was no note of a reservation when we arrived. We were still seated after much back and fourth, but in the corner next to a table with two kids who were throwing things and breaking glasses the entire evening. The restaurant staff also seemed inexperienced, both with allergies and with ensuring guests knew the specials. Service was also very slow. We were also surprised there was no one at or near the pool to help; we had to set up our own umbrella, which required a separate stand that we had to find, and there were no chair cushions left.
