OK, so it only has three stars and some people have written in the negative about this great place. Well, that's NOT the case. Yes, it is an old property and may not have the frills of nearby hotels (on the wrong side of town). The location is without doubt the best, a short walk passing some splendid villas or an alternate route by the sea, either way - only 5 minutes to the ancient quarter and the hub of the town. Cleanliness, without doubt the most important matter, is without fault. Spotless. Staff are again without fault and go above and beyond the call of duty.
Some rooms overlook the pool and sea. Others back on to a quiet street. We stayed in the latter and got a super nights sleep.
The buffet breakfeast is plentyfull and yes, may lack a huge variety, but is great value for €10.00pp.
It may be old, but it's full of warmth and without doubt Sainte Maxime's finest.
Hotels in the area are expensive so don't beat yourself up if first impressions deceive you. Go with the flow.

This was our third visit in over three years, and we are disappointed.

The first and second vists were a pleasure, but the poorly maintained decor, broken tiles on the balcony and rude waiting staff made for an unpleasent experience.

The hotel needs a long overdue maintence programme and until this happens, either avoid or don't expect to be wowed.

We did put this hotel at the top of our 100 or so Best Western hotels visited in North America and Europe over the last eight years, but now it wouldn't even be average.

The location is ideal for visiting the Cote d'Azur and wider Provence and the hotel reception staff and room maids are second to none. A short walk into town means great access to all facilities and ideal for the short ferry over to St. Tropez.

I will think long and hard before deciding to return.

Seemed pricey for what it is...3 Star at best...public areas exceptionally nice and classy, though even they and the rooms need some tidying up (the odd carpet tear/stain, light fittings broken, sticking patio doors, outside paintwork etc). Rooms OK...nice size and all the expected elements. Handy location however. As ever, didn't get 2 rooms close together even tho we booked 9 months ago...but 2 floors apart? hehe. Food and service very good tho. Overall, just a little more effort needed and more reasonable pricing and I would agree with the other reviews so far.

Very smelly drains in bathrooms, which hosts tried to pin on ecological cleaning products....no way.

My boyfriend and I stayed at this hotel for a night, we opted for a sea facing room with balcony. Indeed a very good choice, views of the Gulf of St Tropez and blue sea was very nice. A nice small clean hotel, friendly staff and good location. Must admit, bathroom should have been bigger, not very well maintained, cracks on door, no locks, but on the whole a nice and pleasant stay, would go back again to the same hotel. Room with a balcony not very cheap though, about £170 per night, peak season i guess. But very close to the ferry terminal where you can take a ferry to St Tropez for about 12Euros.
