Do not be put off by the rather shabby exterior - it is nothing like that inside. This hotel is definitely eclectic! I was slightly overwhelmed with the decor when I first checked in - but loved it nonetheless. The religious icons and opera music in the tearoom are something to behold, especially the life size Virgin Mary with flashing... more

With young children you do not go to this hotel, and the staff could be a little bit more welcoming. Great hotel, loads of stairs, nicly furnished and a very nice breakfast/lunch/cafe/bar room. Fairly priced. PArking away from the hotel and difficult to find. Hotel location is very good, right in the heart of town. I would recomend this one... more

A strange experience for us in this hotel – we were on a short break and wanted a hotel near to Glanum and other archaeological sites in the area. The hotel was therefore ideally situated for us, just down the road from the fantastic archaeological site of Glanum and well located in the heart of the wonderful St Remy de... more

We stayed at the Gounod from September 5th till the 9th. had a very long drive from Sarlat and got lost near the end of the trip near Provence. Finally arrived, very tired and aggravated and were met by the manager, Igor who was wonderful. The room we had originally booked was really too small for us and a month's... more

If you like one-of-a-kind inns in ideal locations, then this is for you. We guessed right that St. Remy de Provence would be a great base of operations for exploring Provence and loved our stay at this historic inn, booked on line through Venere. This quaint inn where Gounod wrote an opera, couldn't be better located, right on the main... more

This hotel was a favorite. All the rooms have recently been redecorated in bright colors with artwork from bullfights mixed with medieval religious icons. For example, our room was shocking pink with red velvet curtains, accented with gilded gold framed art and a large crucifix. The rooms are large (we had a comfy king size bed with lots of room... more

We visited this hotel as we had been there in 1996 and wanted to go back. We should never have gone back. Since the refurbishment the atmosphere was heavy (red rooms), there was mournful church music playing all the time and in one small niche in the corner I counted 9 statuettes, 3 crosses and a crucifix. this was in... more

This is a beautiful hotel, and neither Venere nor the hotel's own website does it justice. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We had a front room in the main part of the hotel, looking onto the church and the place de la republique. We did not hear any street noise at all. We paid extra for a large double and... more

We chose this hotel because it looked nice on the website, it was in St. Remy de Provence and it was reasonably priced. It lived up to all our expectations. Igor, at the front desk and almost always there, was more than "eager" to please. Helped with everything we asked. Breakfast was included and was very good - coffee/tea, fresh... more
