Hotel le Saint Paul

Divine experience at this 5 star hotel located in a 15C fortress -- it far exceeded all of my expectations during our 10 day stay! The staff were so accommodating and the hotel was absolutely spotless as one would expect from a 5 star hotel ! We were also delighted when we were informed that our last night stay had been overbooked and if we would consider moving to an even more upgraded room (we were already in one as a suite ) and be their guest at their 5 star dining room on our last night they would be ever so grateful -- they had me at being even further upgraded to an even larger room ! Though travelers are advised to seek out accommodations in Nice because of access to transportation to other villages in the south of France we chose to Uber (about 20 minutes) to Nice from this hotel in order to experience the tranquility and elegance that this hotel offers -- it was very much the right decision! My daughter and I have travelled extensively internationally and this hotel far surpassed any other hotel that we have ever booked --thank you Hotel Le Saint Paul !!!!! We love you !

The hotel was very much in the spirit of the place. Charming to say the least, with welcoming and caring staff. The service was excellent and the rooms were very comfortable.

Absolutely charming hotel in the most charming town. Town is best in late afternoon and evening when tour buses are gone. Staff was so helpful, room was beautiful and we loved our short stay here. If you want to stay in town this is the place. Word of advice- don’t attempt driving in/out- meet transportation outside the town walls- the hotel staff will quickly meet you and transfer your bags.

This is a very special hotel in the beautiful town of St. Paul de Vence. It is historic and has a great deal of charm, but at the same time it has all the modern amenities one would want. The rooms are gorgeous - very quaint, stylish and French. The restaurant is lovely with both inside and outside options and great food. The best part of our stay was the staff - every single staff member was so nice and helpful and lovely!!

Room received very little light. In need of renovation. If you are a tourist for a night and desire an overpriced room, low service and hotel with few amenities, then this might work, but I would think there has to be better places to stay in Vence. Management not helpful or accommodating.

My husband and I were in the south of France for three weeks, traveling around to various small towns, but making one location our "hub" for 3-4 night. In this area, we selected to stay in St-Paul-de-Vence having been to the town before and we knew that we wanted to stay at Hotel Le Saint Paul, having seen the lobby from the outside. Our selection could not have been more spot on and our stay could not have been more perfect. The hotel is in the center of the old city and driving into the hotel the first time, with its narrow streets and small passages, was a little nerve racking...but after the first time, entrance/departure from the hotel was a breeze. Their valet parking takes care of everything! The physical space of the building is amazing and I'm sure hundreds of years old...but all updated, modern and comfortable while still maintaining its historic charm. I've read some reviews about the hotel being "tired" or "bland" or "not maintained"....I don't know where those people were staying, but as a former hotel owner, this hotel is in A-1+ shape! Our room, #36 on the third floor", was spacious, airy, lovely decorated and exceptionally comfortable....so much so, we spent most afternoons of our 4-night stay just hanging out in the room, enjoying the atmosphere. The bathroom was beautiful, with double sinks, separate shower and tub, bidet, towel warmer, hairdry...and everything else one could hope for! The rain shower was exceptional and the water pressure and temperature (sometimes a problem in older buildings!) was excellent on both accounts. We arrived early, so our room wasn't ready until 3 pm (which, actually was closer to 2:15 when they were ready for us) so we were greeted by Paul in the Lobby. The lobby was wonderful with exceptionally comfortable chairs, toilets, water table and an amazing view from the window. And Paul, like all of the staff, immediately made us feel at home and welcome. He, like everyone on the staff, took exceptionally great care of us, always stopped to talk with us and were professional and knowledgable about where to go and what to visit. The hotel also has a restaurant where we had every one of our breakfasts and even a lunch. The food was fresh, pastries amazing and eggs beautifully prepared every morning. While the hotel's facilities were exceptional, the staff really were the stars of the show. Every person on the front desk was spectacular, every person working in the restaurant was helpful and friendly and even the housekeeper always greeted us everyday and asked how we were doing and if we needed anything. Now THAT's Relais & Chateaux service!!! I've read with confusion some of the other recent reviews for this hotel, whose guest obviously were staying close to the 4+ days we were there. Obviously, every person has their own experiences. But clearly, these negative comments do not speak to our experience nor any of the experiences from the other guests that we spoke with during our sta
