For the most part, the staff was not friendly nor welcoming. I booked two rooms at the end of April for a July 19th chicken, chicken, and neither were close to each other. The goal of this trip is to be close to our adult daughters and we were in two separate buildings. We were accommodated on the second night of our trip with two upgraded rooms closer to each other however, the door to our suite broke and we were not able to use that room for that second night. We do commend the one staff member who went out of his way to try and resolve the door issue that night, however it wasn’t possible. The next day, when we went to move our daughters into their new room the staff members on shift at that time questioned whether or not we should actually be able to move into the rooms, questioning our honesty about what had occurred the day before with their colleague overall, we had an OK stay, the pool is lovely and was welcomed on hot days however the menu options at the pool are ridiculous. Nine euros for a can of Coke is not realistic.

Gorgeous place to spend while in that area - right outside of Avignon, but not really walkable so will have to take a cab, not easy to get especially when coming back from Avignon - but the property is gorgeous and very walkable within the town of Villenueve les Avignon and all the delicious restaurants around, the recommendations from staff for dinner were right on point and delicious - the grounds of the hotel are peaceful and so beautiful to walk around in, the pool and the temperature of the water are so refreshing especially after a very hot day of sight seeing - we went to dinner at the restaurant the evening we arrived, there was a cancellation so we go lucky ( make a reservation if you want to eat there) didn't know it was a Michelin star restaurant but when the food started arriving, you will know that it is a top notch restaurant, everything was delicious but the entree, something was off, but enjoyed all the other plates - all was great except the WiFi -was very slow and temperamental and in addition, thought the breakfast was included with the stay but it was not, would have walked into town to get breakfast if I knew that - breakfast did not change for all the 4 days we stayed there, would have been nice for a bit of variety but that being said, we loved our stay there and the staff are super friendly and helpful - we would definitely stay here again!

This was not a 5 star hotel and description of rooms and hotel is very misleading. We’ve stayed at Relais Chateau hotels in the past and they were very nice. This hotel desperately needs remodeling. We requested an updated room but none were available so it’s clear that they’ve renovated some and not others but don’t disclose that information. For over $500 per night this was a disappointing part of our trip.

Nous avons été extrêmement déçus par notre séjour dans cet hôtel censé être un 5 étoiles. Dès notre arrivée, l’accueil a été totalement non professionnel : ils ne retrouvaient pas notre réservation et ont même voulu nous refaire payer la chambre. Après de longues minutes de discussion, le problème a été réglé, mais ce fut un vrai calvaire. La première chambre qui nous a été attribuée était sale, ce qui est inacceptable à ce niveau de standing. Seul bon point : après réclamation, nous avons été surclassés — difficile de dire si c’était un geste commercial ou une simple nécessité face au manque de propreté. En résumé : prestations loin d’être à la hauteur d’un 5 étoiles. Service désorganisé, accueil déplorable, manque de rigueur… Nous ne reviendrons pas.
