Stayed here for 3 nights with my wife in September 2007 in the Honeymoon suite and it was worth every penny with great views over the valley. The hotel itself is in a great location and the staff were extremely attentive without being annoying.
The standard rooms are small and I took a previous reviewers advice of booking a larger room which I would recommend.
We ate here for 1 night and the food is excellent whilst the courtyard where dinner and breakfast is served is wonderfull.
The only downside is that after a day exploring it was not possible to have a drink outside in the courtyard as it is reserved for diners.
In the evening Paul de Vence is deserted and you feel like you have the whole town to yourself as you wander through the cobbled streets.

We just stayed there for three nights and really enjoyed it. We had a beautiful, large room with a big bath. It overlooked the town which basically means you look out over a ten foot wide pedestrian street and right at other buildings. It has a beautiful restaurant, with great food and service.

Access to the hotel is challenging given no parking and during the peak season the town is really packed. We were there in October which worked out fine, but summer crowds could drive hotel guests nuts. The town can be seen in half a day so if you are visiting the area in the summer I'd recommend you stay some distance away and do a day trip and have lunch on the hotel's terrace. Off season, a one or two night stay is well worth it.

I always write a review of any hotel we stay, and its not very often do I have 'no compaints' The hotel is charming, well run, clean, suitable for anyone, except persons with walking difficulties, The breakfast, on the patio, the afternoon teas and cakes,(all included the price) the little extras in the rooms, the free drinks etc etc, You will find the staff most helpful,they got us a car hire delevered to the hotel, they are polite and friendly, the location is in a 14 century walled village on top of a hill, the village is quaint and has many little shops mainly arty crafty type, (about 50) several cafes and restaurants, getting to the hotel is a little difficult, and interesting, but the taxi drivers at the bottom of the village, will take you and your cases up the hill,navigate down a very narrow street to your Hotel. The coast is a mere 20 minutes away, and do visit The Royal beach restaurant in Antibes(on the beach left hand side)its excellent., I would also mention that the hotel Le saint Paul has an excellant restaurant, a rather fussy menu, but non the less, very good.
A lovely way to spend 3 or 4 days, you will enjoy it, if you hire a car a look around the area ,so much more, even Nice, busy, but well worth a visit, but I prefer to stay outside at St Paul , near Vence
a mere 25 mins away from Nice.
Do try and met the manager, who likes to greet his guests in person, a charming man, and someone who cares about his Hotel.

Other than the fact that the rooms are on the small side, this is a totally charming hotel with a very friendly staff. The restaurant well deserves its Michelin star and serves creative cuisine that is definitely worth the cost despite what other reviewers have said. We recommend it without reservation.
