Hotel les Vergers de St. Paul

A snap cold spell failed to dampen the warmth and hospitality extended to my wifeand I and two accompanying friends by the owner and staff of this wonderful hotel located on the hill just below the picturesque village of St. Paul de Vence.

The suites offered to us were beautifully furnished and decorated. Even in the off-season, room service was available for breakfast. The owner and his wife also graciously directed us to some excellent restaurants and tourist sights in the area .

The swimming pool and lounge chairs were very inviting, but not when the temperature dips to 5 degrees centigrade. The magnificent view of the Maritime Alps and the walls of the village more than made up for this disappointment.

We truly enjoyed our quiet stay at this Cote d'Azur gem.

We have just returned from three wonderful days in St Paul de Vence where we stayed at this hotel. I cannot imagine what the previous reviewer was complaining about - the owner was charming and most helpful at all times, as were all the staff. The hotel was beautifully run and spotlessly clean. The rooms had all been recently completely renovated, overseen by an architect from Paris - they were so artistic, with beautiful clean lines - white paint, black marble round the basin and bath etc., modern art on the walls, box trees in planters on the terrace and the air con etc. was the best I have ever experienced. The gardens were beautifully maintained.

We were tired and it was perfect - we had breakfast on our sunny terrace and lazed round the beautiful pool which was never crowded even though the hotel was full. In the evenings we went into Nice or Cannes to have dinner.

I cannot recommend this gem of a hotel too highly if you want a blissfully peaceful break.

The hotel is ok but the hotel management is as worse as it can get - during our stay the management disturbed us several times, was screaming at us due to the fact that the door was shut once (which just happened as the door closes almost on its own...). The manager was standing in our room at 9am, opened the door on his own which is absolutely entering into a very personal area and can not be accepted at all. I would never recommend to go to this hotel to any of my friends or even enemys (if I would have some).
DO NOT GO THERE!!!!!

Receiptionist Rachel was very helpful when we booked via phone. Gave us an exact description of the room and sent us directions how to get from where we were staying. She also recemmended and booked a wonderful restaurant outside St.Paul de Vence and suggested other off-the-beatern track places to visit. The Hotel was very pleasant and welcoming.
