Reviews

The prime location, the view, the calmness, the friendly and helpful staff.

The hotel advertises breakfast included for an extra 30 euros per person. On arrival you learn its continental and pay extra for staples like eggs. We found that disappointing as we typically stay 5* and that had never happened to us before - not even in France We paid up for a sea view suite. However the sea view was only “partial” but not advertised as such - so if sitting on the balcony only 1 guest could have the sea view. Overall I would say its a nice hotel but we compared it to other 5* on our stays which cost us easily 30% less a night, offering far more amenities like a spa, or japanese toilets in one case - if the room had been 500 a night instead of nearly 900 we we would have understood - even the restaurant was closed for dinner during our stay.

What’s not to like?!? This place was huge for Europe and perfect for families. The location couldn’t be beat and the staff!! The staff went out over their way to make EVERYTHING easy and comfortable for us. We liked it so much we extended the stay by a night even though we had nonrefundable paris already booked. We loved everything!!

Location service

Excellent staff. The restaurant is a must even if you aren’t staying at the Hotel. John, the go to guy, helped us with extra.one of the happiest individuals I have ever met.
-
Excellent friendly service throughout the hotel. Central location Rooms were tight like being in someone’s house. Location is hard for cars to get to as it’s inside the small alleyways.
-
Small lobby, no driving access, a bit expensive for what it offers
-
I like everything. It feels like home. they changed the staff at the reception this year so i just need to know them more. They used to be like family. And The shower wasn’t that good as usual.

Wow! That about sums it up. My partner and I hesitated booking this hotel due to the price. But after a busy time in London and Paris, we wanted to relax a bit and boy was this the place to do it! Every place we went, if asked where we were staying, we’d tell them La Ponche, every response repeatedly reassured us that we had picked the best hotel in Saint Tropez. It is central to absolutely everything and surrounded by the best restaurants and the marina. The service was exceptional. If you needed anything, the hotel staff would cater to you and in the most over the top way. They had live music in the bar and the attention to detail from start to finish was impeccable. There is also a lot of history to the hotel that they educate you on. And the rooms & bathrooms, while minimalist, the details are just out of this world. This was by far my favorite hotel (out of 5) during my holiday. There was also a restaurant called Casa Rocco about a 3 minute walk away, very quaint restaurant (owned by the same guy as Nikki beach) the BEST ossobuco I’ve ever had in my life. I highly recommend checking it out! There isn’t a single thing I’d critique, it was truly the stay of a lifetime!

Location and hotel charm The shutters are too low and lets in light in morning at the top and disturbed our sleep so I tried a few times to put down the awning but the wind sensor kept putting it up again.

This is an old-fashioned style hotel that has been thoroughly redecorated (the smell of fresh paint everywhere). Perfect location, valet parking, extremely helpful staff. Spotless / clean. Rooms are very well equipped, but also very small. Steep pricing (probably the norm for this location)

Good

I liked the terrace that was part of my room and the view. It was also very quiet and peaceful. The restaurant of the hotel is excellent. Nice linens, robe, Aqua di Parma toiletries, kind staff and nice decor. I had a lovely room, however there were stairs in my room and that was not stated in the room description. The hotel is very well appointed but stairs cannot be avoided, from what I observed,

Everything was top notch. I liked everything.
