Saint-Raphaël hotellia

Plussat: Such a lovely hotel, with very nice people! We would definitely return to spend a few more days there. It feels like home!

Miinukset: Lovely hotel .friendly people made to feel very welcome.

Plussat: The owners built a very nice and cosy hotel! Warm welcomed and always happy to help and support. The area is very nice and the old Harbour is close with a lot of good restaurants! Always good to go!

Plussat: Lovely family run hotel providing excellent value for money. Although this was only a standard room in a 3 star hotel we had everything we needed: safe, fridge, comfortable bed, water, facilities to make a hot drink. We paid 11€ for breakfast on the terrace which was excellent value in an idyllic setting. There is a beautiful cove 150 yards from the hotel.

Miinukset: Nothing really. Bath robes, body lotion and English breakfast tea would have been nice but to be honest for the price we already had more than we expected. The hotel has no restaurant so perhaps a bit more information about local establishments but we found somewhere easily enough.

Plussat: It’s a beautiful “ Maison de Provençe’ the breakfast is really good. And the staff attention, I think they own the house, is flawless. The room is stylish and elegant.

Plussat: The staff were very friendly explaining everything to us. We were upgraded to a room facing the sea, although the views were not great. It was appreciated however. The room was well appointed and the property has a wonderful atmosphere. It is easy to walk to St Raphael from here and there are also other beach walks to attempt. The area is beautiful and the property is to be recommended.

Plussat: Overall a nice little boutique hotel. Good breakfast and location. Best staff ever. Super nice people. If you want a quiet place and a beach 30 seconds away between St Tropez and Cannes, this is it. Mostly a residential community but apartments, b and b, other small hotels available. If you are ok with a small room at a great price, stay here.

Miinukset: Room was very small, barely adequate. Bathroom looked like it was installed in what might have previously been a closet.

Plussat: Breakfast Excellent

Miinukset: Tea & coffee making facilities in room would have been good.

Plussat: Terrific location ,right next to a super beach . We had an upstairs superior room with a balcony with a sea view , great .

Plussat: Perfect place for a stop over on the Mediterranean.

Plussat: The location of the hotel was beachfront but our room (6) was set back from the road so was nice and quiet. Also this room had a private balcony which was lovely and cool at the end of the day. The room had aircon which was a plus. Tom and all of the staff were friendly and helpful. Although we had a car there were plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Other pluses were that you could park the car in a secure spot which was locked at night for minimal cost and there is a lift in the hotel. We booked for 2 nights but stayed for 4 nights. Lovely and relaxing.

Miinukset: Minor issue, some mornings the breakfast supplies were running low but when asked for top ups, this was done quickly and with a smile.

Plussat: Siistit huoneet ja hyvä ilmastointi. Parveke merinäköalalla. Todella ystävällinen henkilökunra. 100 m siistille ja rauhalliselle hiekkarannalle. Hyvä asmiainen.

Plussat: Excellent location. We had a room with a side sea view. The buffet breakfast was good value for money with some hot choices as well as the usual continental offerings and you could eat it in the courtyard which was very pleasant. The hotel was also very dog friendly which was a bonus for us as we had our small bichon with us.

Plussat: Personnel was very kind and friendfull. Location is good. There is a convenient parking. It is possible to leave a car for next day and there is a shower at the parking. Hotel provides beach towels.

Miinukset: Really nothing to complain.

Plussat: Great place to stay in Saint Raphael with friendly staff knowledgeable of the area. Convenient walk to harbor and beaches. On site parking.

Plussat: Everything about this place was perfect! Amazing food, great hospitality, and the only downside was that we only booked for 2 nights and not a full week!

Plussat: The owner was really nice helping us with usefull tips, making for us a list of the best beaches of the surroundings.

Plussat: The staff were lovely and very attentive. Food was great, lovely garden area to eat in. Would visit again! :)

Miinukset: Little bit of a walk from the beach (uphill on way back) but wasn’t an issue as we drove down.

Plussat: Service, hospitality and the friendly environment make you have a real holiday and a pleasant stay. We absolutely can recommend their kitchen ! Surprising and very good and original dinners ! Bravo Linnea and Susanna

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: We loved that we could park the car in the secure Carpark area, check in was welcoming and informative, room had aircon and the garden area was restful and relaxing. We read the reviews that the evening meals were lovely, so as we were tired we ate in the restaurant which was in the garden. Well the meals were more than lovely, they were delicious, complimented with a good wine selection and perfect service. We enjoyed the meal so much we ate in on our last night as well. Meals are highly recommended.

Miinukset: Not a problem for us but for some it may be a little bit out from restaurants and shops especially if you do not have a car. But because of this it was nice and quiet. Bicycles are available on site.

Plussat: Lovely location, warm and welcoming staff! Very clean and charming. Lovely breakfast with that little extra care!

Plussat: everything was perfect!!!

Miinukset: We liked everything

Plussat: The two owners looked after us like family. Friendly, personal, and genuine. Thank you ladies. Location was quiet and away from the busy streets and night life but only a nice 10 minute walk to restaurants etc. Building was old but totally awesome. The real flavor of Europe which was our agenda for our travel this year.

Miinukset: Nothing could have met our expectations better.

Plussat: All of it. The beautiful historic property is simply gorgeous and well maintained. It is in a residential neighborhood and surrounded by a lovely garden with a private pool. There are multiple terraces for having breakfast or drinks and the mulberry trees provide shade. They are beautiful trees. The staff is superb and far exceeded our expectations. The room we had was large with a view of the Mediterranean and the gardens and pool (#8). We did not want to leave! Highly suggest you go to their website and contact Pascal, the Director who is very knowledgeable and can give you great tips on what to do in the area. He will also book you direct and save you a bit on fees.

Plussat: Totally loved the flair of the villa, the excellent and super friendly service, the pool, the cosiness of the room and the view.

Miinukset: If there is one thing that is below the optimum, it's the WiFi. One idea to improve: put a coffee/Nespresso machine in every room. Everything else is really great!

Plussat: The building and the terrace

Miinukset: The twin beds

Plussat: Very quiet location. The staff were wonderful more so Elisabeth and Pascal. Nothing was too much for them. Will definitely come back.

Miinukset: The twin mattress

Plussat: It is a wonderful old villa, we had a beautiful room and we were warmly welcomed!

Miinukset: -

Plussat: Our first travel with a 10-month old baby, great availability of staff and friendly welcome

Miinukset: If i need to mention something, it would be the noise of the road when at the pool, however not a real issue either

Plussat: You were made to feel like the place was your own home pascl was the best host the breakfast was excellent

Plussat: Marvelous service, magnificent location. Large room with a comfortable bed.

Miinukset: It was off season and the bar was closed. That was a bit pity.

Plussat: Everything about this hotel is incredible. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel grounds are exquisite and the views are breathtaking. Our room had a terrace with a hot tub. The hotel is close to town and a short walk to a few restaurants.

Plussat: Location Style

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Nothing. The rooms were dirty. The staff were rude. The location is remote. The jacuzzi didn’t work and it was dirty. The hotel is nowhere near what you would expect for the price. The staff are incredibly rude to the point the manager manhandled me.

Miinukset: As above. Dirty. Rude staff. Outdated and non maintained. Please research with other review sites as you will see the same experiences. Wish we had!

Plussat: Stunning views from our room and very professional staff

Plussat: the service in the villa was excellent! especially a warm thanks to mr Hubert and miss Carys for being extremely helpfull and kind!! that what makes this holiday superb. also a perfect vue and a top bedroom! we ll be back!

Plussat: Great location, palazzo

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: It was all spaced out so you wasn’t on top of each other and didn’t feel too busy.

Plussat: Everything! This hotel is perfection!

Plussat: Casually elegant decor. Setting is fabulous. Service friendly and competent

Miinukset: I liked everything

Plussat: The comfortable beds. The super delicious food. The salt water pool. The steps into the sea. The sound of the waves lulling us to sleep at night. Special mention to Lois in the restaurant and Natalie on concierge.

Plussat: The Location right on the edge of the ocean is breathtaking, the staff really made our stay, so natural, emphatic and friendly, helpfull and fun. The breakfast on the sunny terrace is such a wonderful start into lazy days and the drinks at the pool are superb to enjoy the sunset.

Miinukset: That we had to leave.

Plussat: Loved everything about the hotel. Amazing! Our room location could have been better right next to the restaurant but it was relaxed, cool, comfortable and so many divine spaces to explore. Food and one a little overpriced also for the quality.

Miinukset: Drinks too expensive

Plussat: The view was incredible!

Miinukset: The evening food selection could be more varied

Plussat: They had parking

Miinukset: Room was excessively small and the cost does not reflect the property even allowing for the time of year

Plussat: Very comfortable apartment, all necessary items available . Staff friendly and helpful. They very kindly put breakfast out for us when the boulangerie across the road shut for their holiday, which was a nice thoughtful gesture.

Plussat: Friendly staff & nice rooms. Breakfast was out on the terrace and was lovely. Location was quiet & yet close to the city center/beaches.

Plussat: Friendly and helpful owner. Fantastic breakfast.

Miinukset: A bit far from the center

Plussat: Hotellissa oli todella mukava ja sydämellinen henkilökunta. Saimme omistajilta kyydin asemalle ja juoda aamulla kahvia ihanalla terassilla. Kylpyamme oli hyvä lisä huoneeseen.

Miinukset: Bussikuljetusta ei ollut, mutta onneksi saimme kyydin takaisin asemalle. Vessan ovena oli sermi.

Miinukset: Breakfast was a poor selection for the rating staf were not very helpful bar service in evening very poor bathroom facilities poor no safety rail to get in or out of bath or shower only two rooms with shower only for disabled access

Plussat: All the staff were very friendly. Great location and facility.

Plussat: Very helpful and cheerful staff. Very clean.

Plussat: Breakfast was good as in previous years. However with the amount of guests staying, staff seemed to struggle with replenishment when guests arrived at the same time.

Plussat: We only stayed one night, unfortunately. Everything was good about this hotel - beautiful location, lovely rooms and nice staff.

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike.

Plussat: Good location at St. Lucia harbour and close to Saint-Raphaël. Staff was nice.

Miinukset: The hotel needs a kind of refurbishment to justify the rates again.

Plussat: Location of hotel right next to the marina. Room with balcony over looking marina.

Plussat: The room had a refrigerator, which was very welcome. The staff lent me a phone charger, which was highly appreciated.

Miinukset: No socket close to the bed.

Plussat: Friendly staff. Very clean and good location. Great price

Plussat: Everything I stayed 3 nights I felt so comfortable the room had a window to the street , it was clean, with tv, etc everything was really perfect and the owners are lovely they helped me with everything, the location is great! Close to the beach and all type of shops, I could sleep perfect (no noises at all) the village is very beautiful

Plussat: Location, nice staff, calm neighborhood.

Plussat: Good value for money. Great location. Very friendly staff. Clean room.

Miinukset: A kettle with complimentary tea / coffee in the room would be desired.

Plussat: The location of the hotel was central to the things we wanted to see. It was also quiet, which was nice. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Miinukset: The hotel room was a bit dingy. The carpet was old and needed to be replaced. The shower and bathroom were small, which is to be expected in a European hotel, though.

Plussat: Breakfast was great. Staff was friendly. Checking in procedure was weird. I received emails that reception wasn't staffed and didn't get responses to my queries. It turned out to be fine. I didn't have to wait long. All in all a good experience.

Miinukset: Check-in procedures.

Plussat: When we arrived there’s no one. So we must call the number. However the bathroom is not like photos on booking it’s a little dirty and very old I don’t like that. If you want to stay at saint Raphaël I think that you can find better hotels at same price more or less! I’m sorry but I don’t like this place.

Miinukset: The bathroom. Terrible.

Plussat: Very nice breakfast served by very kind staff. Great place to stay for people who aren’t interested in staying in an overpriced and fancy location.

Miinukset: Our room had a very foul smell, but opening the windows helped.

Plussat: Super friendly and wonderful breakfast

Plussat: Location. Comfortable bed.

Miinukset: Showers and toilets “squeezed” in. “Thin” room dividers. Dodgy workmanship. A light switch fizzed when I turned it on. No member of staff there to meet me when I arrived despite being within the stated reception opening hours.

Plussat: Very comfortable room, excellent breakfast

Plussat: Always a friendly welcome and a comfortable room with excellent breakfast served on the small terrace

Plussat: The staff were friendly and the room was fine.

Miinukset: Corridor was dirty, dinner was overpriced and slow, meagre serving and not very good. The bathroom had two long black hairs on the floor ... Definitely over priced and in serious need of new carpets near the dining room.

Plussat: The most wonderful setting. Quiet, surrounded by magnificent palms and cypress trees, woodlands, golf course etc. A fair breakfast, balcony (although unlit!) good minibar/fridge, spotlessly clean, ample (free) parking. Large swimming pool - although unheated. Extremely comfortable large bed. Effective airconditioning throughout. Excellent access. nicely decorated.

Miinukset: Tea/Coffee facilities totally absent. One toaster at breakfast and even that only half-working. Not all the staff cracked a smile. Swimming pool water directly piped from the Arctic. No shower curtains and bath-sides only mountaineers could climb over. A hair drier on such a short cord you could only use if you bent over double. Sink tap you could not get your hands under for a proper wash. Worst of all, an enclosed en-suite toilet with NO ventilation whatsoever. (Hard to believe, let alone imagine. - Best not to try!) The advertised wifi signal was extremely poor and ran at a speed reminiscent of the bad old dial-up days rendering contact with the outside world, family or work effectively impossible. Nobody was willing or able to help with that. No maps of the Cote d'Azure at Reception. The TV in the room was the size of a postage stamp; about the cheapest model available but no English stations available, so useless anyway unless you are French. All in all, it seems not quite thought-through for a modern hotelier with well travelled international clientele. These are basics today and mostly inexpensive to put right.

Plussat: A delightful well located hotel with quiet spacious rooms and large lswimming pool. Superb location on edge of golf course

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Location is perfect for relaxation, playing golf and walking in the pine forest

Miinukset: Bed is too hard and employees partly show arrogance in behavior. Dinner is not to recommend.

Plussat: The location is in a green area and the staff is really kind

Miinukset: It's a little far from the sea and you need a car to move

Plussat: Helpful staff,lovely facilities and very restful for a first holiday in 3 years. Close to lots of lovely beaches and wonderful weather in September

Miinukset: Being asked for a deposit against extras at the start of the holiday. This has never happened anywhere before. Also the price of the breakfast for one which had not been included was a lot more than the price on the booking form.

Plussat: very spacious room, nice mini spa area. good location

Miinukset: breakfast was overpriced

Plussat: We were very happy with the friendlines particularly of the staff at the restaurant.

Plussat: We were on honeymoon and as i know France fairly well, avoided the tourist traps of the sea front - we ate where the French people eat - I would advise anyone with a hire car to go to Mons and arrive in time for lunch. Food in the region incredible. Best Western has short game area and driving range which whilst were not in great condition made up for it by being next to hotel. golf course great for beginner golfers.

Miinukset: Pool is not suitable for lap swimmers as is too small - apart from this reviews on web are good and fair. For golfers - i am 10 handicap and have to say the golf courses i tried were more than ok scenery-wise but were in poor condition for better golfers. Eg, Nearby Estel greens were great but fairways just mud. (in fairness they did heavily discount so i didn't mind and used it as hitting off mud practise!!)

Plussat: I really liked the location next to a golf course and therefore far from the hectic lie of the seaside

Plussat: Swimming pool, service, restaurants, rooms with balcony, cleanliness, etc. We can definitely recommend this hotel.

Miinukset: It is too far from the beaches to walk

Plussat: Nice and friendly atmosphere. Spacious clean room and nice terrace.Good breakfast. Evening diner good value for money. Centrally locateed for beach, Esterel mountains and Saint Raphael down town.We will certainly come back here

Miinukset:

Plussat: Excellent location

Miinukset: No parking but car parks are close. No additional facilities.

Plussat: There is a free parking 1.5 h near by from 9.00 to 19.00. The bed was VERY comfortable, there are electric blinds, coffee and tea in the room. Quite room.

Miinukset: I could hear the TV of the next room ...you could hear it from the entrance of the hotel... that was not the hotel's fault.

Plussat: The breakfast and the position, the hotel is close to the city center and the beach. The staff is very nice.

Plussat: The room was larger than expected bearing in mind that I was late booking and the bathroom facilities were excellent.

Miinukset: Nothing. All ok

Plussat: good location to bus rail restaurants

Plussat: The location is great and easy to get around. Great staff everyone always ready to help. I especially liked the security black out shutters on the windows. Plenty of restaurants in the area and market for items. Right near the beach. My room was on front of hotel and overlooked a square with a lot of greenery. Not noisy at all at night the shutters helped with that. Very secure building locked when no one around and I had a key code to enter

Miinukset: Can’t think of anything negative

Plussat: Always every clean, close to beach and shops and restaurants. Quiet street. Now they’ve added a kettle in the room so you can make a cup of tea or coffee, so it’s even better than before,

Plussat: Enjoyed stay great shower, near rail and bus stations

Miinukset: There were stairs to the lift which was very hard to get to when you have a disablement

Plussat: The location of the hotel was close to the railway station and bus station.The room was cleaned each day . It had a full length window giving plenty of light. The bathroom was fitted out with modern suite. Plenty of hot water. There were plenty of pillows.

Miinukset: The price of breakfast was 10 euros,on top of room rate so we bought our own.

Plussat: Location and access

Miinukset: No parking and one staff on the second day morning asked me to identify myself, quite humiliating and was quite not friendly. While I went to kitchen for getting some hot water (oldish lady) other staff was very nice. Also room size is bit small

Plussat: Staff were nice, close to the port and decent basic room.

Miinukset: Dark room but always going to be the case not all rooms can get the sunlight

Plussat: Room was basic and clean. Only 1 minute from station and only 3 minutes from beaches!

Miinukset: No facilities for hot drinks.

Plussat: very good location, the room is big enough and has all you need for a short stay

Miinukset: nothing in particular

Plussat: The breakfast was good and plenty to eat. The location was perfect being close to the train station, shops, bars and restaurants.

Miinukset: Nothing. I was very happy there and will stay again.

Plussat: The Hotel is near to the beach that is great.

Plussat: Location and room Size

Miinukset: Car park door on exit

Plussat: Room with a bathtub

Miinukset: Had to ask for wifi which worked in the room - finally received one

Plussat: Aamupalabuffetin kahvi oli erinomaista.

Miinukset: Kylpyhuoneen viemäri haisi.

Plussat: Great hotel, great staff, great location

Plussat: The location is perfect. the beach and sea across the street. The staff is very cooperative especially "SUSSAN" in the reception. All reception staff speaks English and very helpful. Very clean and comfortable comparing to the hotels nearby as well as the pricing rate.

Miinukset: Some of the rooms are very tight and small and facing the windows of neighbor.

Miinukset: Cleaning ladies and guests started to make a lot of noise at 8: 00 am, screaming on the coridor. Doors do a lot of noise when you want to close it. Very dark room. I wouldn't go back.

Miinukset: Kuvat hämää.Hotelli on vain pohja-ja eka kerros.Merinäköala vähän niin ja näin.

Plussat: Hyvä aamiainen, rauhallinen hotelli. Suht tilavat huoneet. Respa auttoi reippaasti kaikissa kysymyksissämme.

Miinukset: Osa asioista on uusittu, osa vanhaa. Uusimattomat kohdat laskevat yleisilmettä. Esim käytävien matot tulisi kenties jo uusia

Plussat: Great room, brilliant view, excellent location.

Miinukset: Breakfast was disorganized.

Plussat: Very classy hotel, so many small excellent touches

Miinukset: All excellent

Plussat: The food generally is of a good standard but the breakfast is disappointing The bed was very comfy.

Miinukset: I booked a room with sea view. The sea was visible if you looked out of th e side window, over a series of roofs and through the trees. The ‘wardrobe ‘ was a sort of cupboard in the corner but it was almost inaccessible. The bathroom needs seriously updating. We had booked for 11 nights but moved on after just two.

Plussat: Lovely hotel just a fel minuters from the beach. The rooms where clean and the bed was perfect. Nice staff at the hotel.

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: Room small,no basic facility such as tea or coffee,TV not connected initially when it was not a single English speaking channel,lift tiny and inadequate and broke down twice,service at bar and restaurant very poor,food only average as was the choice of menu,no staff spoke any English of any quality so orders misinterpreted and wrong,very expensive given the extremely average condition of the hotel. They clearly do not like or cater for British people,and since our last visit some 15 years ago,the whole atmosphere and ambience of the place has changed,very much for the worse.

Plussat: Lovely hotel reminding me of a bygone era. The staff were fantastic, the owner delightful and the location amazing. Will definitely come back

Plussat: The hotel is very comfortable. The bed is great and they provide a lot of toiletries which is nice.

Miinukset: My partner and I went through a mug attempt before we arrived at the hotel. I was frazzled ( I admit) but I didn’t find the staff very empathetic. They could have been more empathetic.
