“Perfection.”

Hotel Sous les Figuiers

Jun 23, 2008

Lovely hotel, great location, everything was perfect.

Hotel Les Figuiers deserves another star, and I hate to say it, is probably under-rented. It certainly is underrated. One of the other reviews used the perfect word to describe this place - manicured. Everything is well designed and balanced. The room smelled like fresh paint, and everything felt brand new. We stayed in the Provencal suite, one of the less expensive rooms due to its location off the main walkway. Nonetheless, it had everything we needed - wonderful stone tiled shower, large bathroom, queen bed, huge french doors, and exposed limestone walls.

The back garden where most of the rooms (and fig trees) are located is gorgeous. It reminds me of a southern california spa hotel, if anything. Very peaceful and relaxing. If you can, book one of the rooms there with private decks overlooking the garden.

The breakfast at the hotel was fabulous. It held just off the reception in a room filled with paintings by an artist who apparently works in the hotel's studio (painting workshops are offered to guests). It makes for a great setting, and the place had the best breakfast anywhere we've been in europe. Every day was a different offering, with freshly pressed juice, fresh fruit, and local yogurt/fromage blanc, and some of the best coffee I've ever had. If fact, we wished they had offered more than continental breakfast, as it no doubt would have been wonderful.

Overall, no question this was the best place we stayed. The efforts of the owners to create a unique experience is clearly evident. The website really does not do it justice, and I suggest that they re-do it. Please stay here and give it a try.

Note - our experience was no doubt enhanced by Saint-Remy itself. This was the nicest town we saw in provence. It's bright, clean, beautiful, and not overrun by the tourist infrastructure that has spoiled Avignon and others. The farmer's market on wednesday is a delight.

“Loved it - a real gem!”

We loved this hotel. what a beautiful setting! The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. It is a little off the main drag (such as it is!!) in St. Remy but easy walking to restaurants and town. Woudl definitly stay here again.

“Best experience in France”

Hotel Sous les Figuiers

5 of 5 stars
South Carolina
Apr 28, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

We just returned from a trip throughout France and out of all the accommodations Hotel sous les Figuiers was our best hotel of the trip.
The room was extremely clean and roomy, the bed extremely comfortable. The bathroom and shower were equally impressive, but the best feature was the front porch with chairs and a table. With the nice weather it was just awesome. The grounds were also manicured, everything is done correctly and walking distance to town-2 minutes.
Do not miss breakfast, homemade apple sauce and jams.
We will return to France and our stay will revolve around St-Remy next time.

“A Restful Base for Touring Provence”

Hotel Sous les Figuiers

5 of 5 stars
Phoenix, Arizona

1/1 found this review helpful

We made Sous les Figuiers our base for our 5-day stay in Provence. The location is perfect for visiting the region. It was wonderful to come back to our lovely room and sit on the "terrasse" with a bottle of wine and just relax.

We wanted a quiet, restful home base for touring, and we certainly found it at Sous les Figuiers. Here are just some of the advantages of staying here: Short walking distance to everything in town; Secure premises (locked gate after 9:00 pm); Extremely friendly & helpful staff; Beautiful courtyard at our doorstep; Peace & quiet after a long day of touring; Computer with internet access for guests' use in the lounge. The room was perhaps small by "American" standards, but the very large terrace more than made up for it.

The entire staff could not have been more accommodating with everything from directions to restaurant suggestions and poolside drinks. We didn't take advantage of breakfast; instead we had coffee delivered to our terrace each morning. We also enjoyed socializing with other guests around the pool while enjoying some wine. Wonderful!

A treasure in the heart of Provence!

“Charming small hotel - great for older couples & people with kids”

Hotel Sous les Figuiers

4 of 5 stars
New York City
Oct 14, 2007

We recently visited Hotel Sous Les Figuiers and were very pleased with the overall quality of the experience. The staff are very efficient and helpful, the hotel is spotlessly clean, nicely decorate, and the location is extremely convenient-- in walking distance of most St-Remy and its delicious restaurants. The pool must be a delight in the summer, we looked at it longingly although it was too cold to go in.

Some people have complained about the breakfast. I'm 37 and health-conscious, and I liked it, although my parents who are 'bacon & eggs' types thought it was a little 'too healthy.' Breakfast consisted of your choice of coffee, hot chocolate or tea, served with fresh fruit of the season, croissants & bread with jam, and yogurt or cheese. For 11 euros the price was really not too high, its about right-- there was ample bread, and we paid twice as much in Lyon for breakfast at the Bocuse hotel.

The only cons of the experience perhaps is that the mattresses are quite firm, so if you're not used to that, then you might be uncomfortable. Then again, the hotel's price is also right, so while older generations might long for a pillow-top on that mattress, you really can't complain!
