Hotel Mas de Cure Bourse

We stayed a week here in early June in very hot and sunny weather. The hotel is fairly simple with good grounds, and surrounded by orchards. We had a basic room which was quite small, but comfortable enough. It had good air conditioning which was essential given the temperature (in the mid 30s). The bed was comfortable and there was just enough storage. The bathroom was slightly odd with no shower curtain, but it was functional. The food in the restaurant was excellent, very well cooked, flavoured and presented. The deserts in particular were extremely good. The little amuse-bouche were also very good. There is also a very good wine list, with some excellent local wines. If you were staying somewhere nearby, it would be worthwhile booking a meal in restaurant. The hotel has a good size swimming pool with plenty of sun loungers. However, it is not really suitable for smaller children as it has no real shallow end. A drawback that might worry some is that it is very remote and only accessed, albeit from several directions, by very narrow and rough single track roads. You need to drive these very carefully as there are many potholes which could easily damage a tyre, particularly at night when they are difficult to see. Most of the roads to it do have signs for it, but they are not large and you do need to 'get your eye in' to spot them. However, my car's built in Satnav found it without difficulty. If you are looking for a very quiet country hotel serving good food this is well worth considering, but probably opt for one of the superior rooms.

Tucked away in a little lane. Definitely need a GPS to find it quickly. Poor signage on site. No direction to drop off area, just direction to Parking resulting in a long way to carry luggage. In reception we were given our room key, told room was on second floor, and shown the staircase. There isn't a lift. Door at foot of stairs does not shut – jamming on the floor. No offer of help with luggage (we are both over seventy) and no direction where to go when we reached the top of stairs, so we consequently spent a while finding the room which was at the end of a corridor, whilst humping our bags around. The room and bed were OK and clean. Bed was comfortable and we slept well. In the bathroom the bath body wash dispenser was rather bizarrely mounted at standing height at the opposite end to the taps and shower hose, which didn't seem to work either for someone sitting in the bath or someone using the shower hose at the other end. Room had a small balcony that to one side overlooked the rear patio where we dined, and to the other side another parking area and a rather dirty roof patio below. First impression of dining patio was that the requisite number of tables were clean and had been laid for dinner, although not with tablecloths and candles as per the web site photos. The remaining tables had fallen leaves on them. Grass and weeds were growing through the gravel. Dinner was the set menu (having booked half board). The meal was tasty, but we did notice we were only given one “amuse bouche” item whereas diners choosing from the menu had three. The cheapest bottle of “house wine” was 30 Euros, which seemed a bit pricy in a wine growing area. Lasting impression was that the hotel was lacking maintenance both inside and outside, perhaps understandably in the aftermath of Covid, however this was not the case in the other four hotels and B & B's we stayed in during our travels, hence the rating of “disappointing”.

Idéalement situé pour visiter le lubéron. Véritable havre de paix où l’équipe met tout en œuvre pour faire de votre séjour une réussite.

Juste un petit bémol : manque une prise dans la salle de bain, peu pratique pour utiliser le sèche cheveux ! ... ainsi qu'un manque de point lumineux dans la chambre ; on doit aller dans l'obscurité jusqu' à la tête de lit pour allumer la lampe de chevet... Tout cela ne nous a pas empêché de passer un excellent week-end, je recommande vivement..

Chambre indigne d’un 3 étoiles (chambre du Figuier) : • Matelas dépassant de 20cm du sommier • Lavabo d’un autre temps • Sanibroyeur pour les toilettes dans la salle d’eau • Robinetterie ou le chromage a disparu, bonde ne laissant passer que peu d’eau, filtre du robinet (sans mitigeur bien sûr) à moitié colmater • Ventilation bruyante qui marche avec l’éclairage et qui réveille madame • Sans parler de la décoration d’un autre âge et des finitions qui ne sont même pas digne d’un bon bricoleur !! • Seule la restauration était satisfaisante bien qu’en ½ pension le menu proposé ne comportant que 2 choix si vous n’aimez pas le poison le 2éme soir vous êtes obligés de manger la même chose. Ce qui fait que nous avons était très déçus de cette prestation. Le rapport qualité/prix étant énormément surfait. Lors du règlement du séjour la réceptionniste devant notre mécontentement nous a simplement indiqué que nous aurions du nous manifesté avant et qu’ils auraient proposé une autre chambre, cela ne changeait en rien à la qualité de la chambre La chambre était indiquée en catégorie « confort » quel doit être la prestation en catégorie « classique » ??? Et nous avons payé 585 € pour un week-end de 2 nuits !!!
