Hotéis em Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer

Prós: Rooms in a typical style

Contras: Rooms too close to the main route

Prós: We liked the location, the little cabana rooms and the swimming pool and bonus is the horses around . The breakfast is amazing and the views. Very good location, just a few minutes away by car or can walk to Sainte Marie de la mer

Contras: Well we had our little dog and they do not accept dogs, so we did not feel comfortable, also no service of drinks around the pool. The terrace of the rooms are not comfortable furniture

Prós: The grounds and setting of the property.

Contras: The pricing is way too high for the standard of the rooms, @ 200€ per night in the off season in March ! definitely not a 4 star hotel by any means. We stayed in a cavalarie room 3 pax (very small) old, rundown and outdated with no tea or coffee, kettle. There is a shower nozzle in the bath, however you cannot hold it to wash out your hair as the handle burns you and there is no hook on the wall to connect it to? Very unsafe. The TV was meant to have English stations, as we wanted news on the Corona Virus, however it wasn't working in our room. A staff member came to re tune the TV but they didn't know how to do it, however no apology or discount offered upon checking out. They had post it notes on the bathroom mirror, really 4 star ??? and the mirror in the hall was corroding, old peeling paint, decaying loose decking around the main pool ( see pics) Not really what u expect for a 4 star way to operate and at 200€ per night in the cheapest accommodation. The horse riding was overpriced @ 100€ pp private 2hr ride and we didn't receive the tour we paid for with riding and galloping on the beach. We just walked, and never rode on the beach, so we could have paid the cheaper 40€ price and gone with others instead. The horse my daughter rode bolted at the sound of her tying her jacket around her waist and she was thrown off - luckily into the scrub! I have broken, bred, ridden & trained horses for 45+ years and I think even I would have come off in the same situation as the horse was running blind, ran right through trees and uneven scrub and lost its footing, almost falling down completely a number of times. Properly broken horses, especially used for tourists of all standards of riding, should not BOLT for this very normal and expected situation or to jump sideways when you have to slap a mosquito biting your leg !

Prós: Parking, cleanliness, staff generally very pleasant. Lovely upmarket resort feeling. Wildlife and scenery

Contras: Extremely hot water in the cavaliere triple room bathrooms. Our son burnt his arm. A little surprised to find that fish of day in the pont de banned restaurant was salmon in the Camargue!

Prós: Room very clear. Best location. Breakfast perfect.

Contras: The bed may be better and room very small.

Prós: Lovely cabanas! Friendly staff. Horseback riding was amazing

Contras: Breakfast is not really up to standard. Freshly cut fruit looked two days old. Charcuterie was not so qualitative.

Contras: pricewise a bit a high end location, otherwise ok. Restaurant ok. Rooms ok. nothing exceptional, but ok. Basic rooms are very very basic and simple.

Prós: Nice staff

Contras: Awfully small rooms - if I knew would never have booked - photos taken very wise to make it look like a decent size room although you walk into bed - upset to bits on arrival especially mind it is in the marshlands/so in total mud

Prós: Good location very close to many restaurants and the beach

Contras: Staff could have tried smiling and being a bit more welcoming and helpful. Seemed to have difficulty getting our room cleaned and staff managing breakfast did not speak any English

Prós: I liked the place is near the beach. Bed is confy and staff was very amazing!

Prós: Location

Contras: Slow draining of shower water- would have likecto get a local city map from reception

Prós: Breakfast was good but no meat or sheese

Contras: nowehere to put anything in the shower like soap or shampoo

Prós: Wonderful room, renewed and clean.

Prós: A cozy little place in Saintes Maries. Staff was super nice, the room is a bit small but was perfectly tidy and very comfortable. The location is great

Prós: Hotel reception were extremely helpful. I wanted to ride in the Camargue and she recommended an excellent place with a guy called Claudio. Instead of riding with 20+ other riders there was myself and one other person who went out with Claudio and another English speaking instructor. For 3 glorious hours from 4.30 until sunset we rode across the Camargue cantering along beaches and through lakes of flamingoes. Claudio proudly telling us all about the area and wildlife.

Contras: Mosquitoes! Hey but everything has a price!

Prós: very friendly staff, breakfast v good, I was missing an area with water cooker and a microwave, there is no bar in the hotel and traveling with kids would be easier if one could prepare simple meals

Contras: sanitary comditions of the bathroom could be improved.

Contras: Unfortunatly it wasn't really cleaned properly, hairs, dust and dead insects... When we came about 7 years ago, it was great though. We were dissapointed.

Contras: Bath was not clean. Plug bath didn't function

Prós: The facilities are amazing! Quiet...well located...I will DEFINATELY return there....I wish they could consider my opinion and pay more attention to the cleanness of their bathrooms....

Contras: It was not cleaned ... We arrived late in the night...and we wanted to relax with a bath....but the bathtub was just dirty...we couldn't use it...the lavatory was the same...

Prós: arrived early evening and had to leave very early - but loved that the place was away from the main stretch and felt more peaceful - bathrooms were good - newly decorated to high standard. wold have loved to have spent the day there really to use the facilities.

Contras: bath towels - a lack of towels was an issue.

Prós: Dinner, breakfast, personnel and location. All good. Also breakfast free of charge because our water was cut off during the night and we had no water next morning for toilette etc. It was fixed by 9 am but disagreeable experience.

Contras: Our room - a "roulotte". Very cramped. Bed small and could only be accessed from one side. Bathroom also very small. No shower, only a huge free-standing bath which was rather dangerous for older people to get in and out of.

Prós: The area and the hotel facilities are very beautiful, beautiful pool with sufficient space around so you don‘t feel crowded even if there are more people. The room was very nice with a spacious bathroom and spacious shower with good toiletry products from Nuxe. Staff at check-in and breakfast was very helpful and forthcoming. We were traveling with an infant (there were a lot of other guests with babies or small children) and were pleased they had sufficient highchairs around. The parrot Marius who comes onto your shoulder was an attraction.

Contras: We had a room located above the kitchen, which was a bit noisy at night when the kitchen was being cleaned. Also, the food at lunch did not entirely live up to the expectation - we had chicken salad which was good, but the fish we ordered it seems they at first forgot, and when it came late it was obviously rushed and not cooked through, sides were not what others who ordered the same dish had gotten, and tasted strange. On the positive end we got a coffee on the house after mentioning the shortcomings. Despite this, our overall experience at Mas de la Fouque was pleasant.

Prós: Incredible surrounding Great room (suite) Very pleasant staff Spa

Contras: Restaurant decorations needs refreshing

Prós: It is a spa, best for athletic young French people. Location is amazing but isolated. Buggy because the Camargue is. Very friendly. The town, Sté Mariés de la Mer is a seaside resort with marvelous seafood better than at the Spa. The bird sanctuary is truly fabulous.

Prós: fantastic location, everything perfect. Dinner was excellent.

Prós: The location was superior in the middle of nature and respecting the environment. Parking facilities are excellent. Parrot Marius welcomes the guests.

Contras: The mosquitos are a real problem. Some of the staff is a bit arrogant. The heating in the bathroom was switched on despite the fact that it was around 40C outside. The airco produces too much light which is troublesome at night. The property is overprized.

Prós: Excellant well priced restaurent overlooking the most spectacular views down the valley, a great find!

Prós: The view over the swamps were amazing. Nice location, quiet but near centre of the town. The staff was friendly, but they looked very nervous.

Contras: The hotel was on first sight very beautiful, but I would not rate it 4 stars.

Prós: Very friendly and available staff. Good location in the heart of town, but far enough from the noisy streets. The rooms, facilities and hallways were all very clean. Good breakfast buffet and offer of drinks.

Contras: Mattress was a bit too soft and losing its shape. The air in the rooms and hallways was overloaded with way too much air freshener/deodorant.

Prós: Everything else. Clean, quite, friendly, like the town itself. Good vibe, very relaxed.

Contras: You know how WC means 'water closet'? Now I know why. Toilet is literally the size of a closet. Shower is normal sized, room is normal sized, toilet not so much.

Prós: Great little seaside village, very comfortable accommodation, with breakfast available on site. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Lots to see and do nearby.

Prós: Mattress was comfortable. Heating was necessary and worked well. Wifi was good. Breakfast was simple but nice and good value (7 euros).

Contras: Small pillows. Bathroom was dusty and had mould. Radiator was rusty and shower handle was broken + nowhere to put shower gel. Next door was a public toilet with a noisy. Overall fairly run down and not cosy.

Prós: Location

Contras: It ok for pricr

Prós: Awesome welcome, dedicated and friendly. Super cool.

Contras: All cool.

Prós: They very generously let us eat our own for in their dining room with our kids though we only bought coffee from them

Prós: Good location

Contras: Our stay at the Castelet was horrible. Room had disgusting stench. We found a small pile of cigarette butts under the sofa bed. The comforter was filled with black dog hair!!! We slept badly due to the smell & kids were coughing of all night.

Prós: Airy rooms with wonderful hand painted graphics. Kind and helpful staff.

Contras: Difficulty finding the place with their change in street address.

Prós: The Breakfast was excellent. The fresh bread was still warm and the cakes delicious. Pool was cold but didn’t stop our children enjoying it!

Contras: There was no creme or milk for the tea tray. The boggy smell outside the room is strong. Didn’t really think much of the near by town...

Prós: good breakfast with lots of cake, nice garden with swimmingpool, you can park your car (and need it to go to town it is a bit too far to walk), special ambiance with decorations. They serve diner as well.

Contras: there is only a bathtub so you can't have a shower that easy.

Prós: Such a beautiful property with great staff. Breakfast was superb as well.

Contras: Wish it was warmer so we could enjoy the pool!

Prós: Very nice, great location, very friendly staff

Prós: We were greeted by a very friendly staff who were eager to please us. Very efficient and very clean in a wonderful location .The spacious dining and bar areas offered lovely food and drink and always with smile.

Contras: Difficult to find any faults as it made our short stay so memorable.great bslue

Prós: Friendly staff

Contras: Weather

Contras: Room was cramped and not well laid out. Hard to shower given the size of the bathroom and although advertised as beachfront, it was in front of a carnival on one side and a construction site on the other. When I couldn't find the bathroom in the room( door to room hid it) and asked the manager, he was making fun of me. Would not recommend this hotel at all

Prós: The location was great, right on the beach. There was municipal parking across the street - plenty of spaces in the fall but I'll bet it's a lot more difficult in the summer. We had a lovely balcony overlooking the sea. The hotel design was retro which was fun. My sister-in-law said she should have brought her Jackie O. sunglasses.

Prós: Located very nice in the lively harbour area of Saint-Marie in close proximity of the old town esc area of the village. Decent price and nice staff. The rooms are very clean and fresh and the air conditioning perfect on a hot day and actually on par with some four star hotels that we have visited.

Contras: Shower curtain not convenient, bathroom quite old

Prós: Location

Contras: Closed at 8pm with no prior notice. Parking is terrible Staff was generally impolite, laughing at my wife behind her back

Prós: Very good location and nice view on the sea, People working there are very nice

Prós: Great location, friendly helpful staff, simple but comfortable room, good breakfast, free parking on street right outside.

Contras: Couldn’t park nearby Bar closed at 8pm Staff were ok but didn’t offer any info about anything

Prós: Location was fantastic!

Contras: Minimal room and amenities. WiFi did not work well.

Prós: Staff, rooms, location and facilities are great. Convenient nearby car park. We have stayed before

Contras: Nothing - everything was OK

Prós: The staff were wonderful, location couldn’t have been better. Rooms were very nice, exactly as pictured, maybe even a bit nicer. Nice charm and energy here.

Contras: The lobby area smells very strong or cigarette smoke, there’s no parking in summer, and the WiFi is not dependable.

Prós: Wonderful hostess/staff!

Prós: Great position on the seafront but a few minutes away from the centre so much quieter location. Unfortunately did not have a sea view but room was comfortable, clean and quiet. Parked motorbike outside front door which was safe and convenient. Breakfast was excellent and being able to have it outdoors was a bonus.

Contras: Nothing

Prós: The location was perfect. Close to the beach. Easy walk into town. Quiet at night. Hotel was very fresh and clean.

Contras: On arrival we rang the bell and a gentleman appeared. We were early so we were asked to return in one hour. We did and were shown to our room by a very pleasant woman. That was the last we seen of any one until we checked out. Some people mat like that but it would have been nice to see a face at reception asking if all was well etc.

Prós: Breakfast good but very overpriced at 30 E.

Prós: The warm welcome, and phone call to confirm our arrival

Prós: Great location - holiday accommodation - very friendly.

Contras: Nothing - a great place to stay!

Prós: Wonderful location just in front of the beach

Contras: Nothing. We liked everything

Prós: Very comfortable, room reasonably spacious, quiet, convenient, clean, good bathroom, decent breakfast, helpful and friendly staff. Good value for money and highly recommended.

Contras: Hotel excellent, but in Saintes Maries de la Mer, be ready for the very aggressive gypsies outside the church (and probably in other places around the town) They are extremely skilled and bullying so be on alert.

Prós: The location is great at 5'form Saintes-maries. The staff is welcoming and very helpful to accommodate specific requests. Very good breakfast

Prós: Everything!

Contras: The coffee, we tried different solution without success!

Prós: Location is great near by the sea and village. Nice and clean swimming pool

Contras: Rooms too small. Breakfast average

Prós: Liked the staff. Calm and quiet area. Beautifu breakfastarea and pool was great. We loved it!

Contras: No Wi-fi.

Prós: Good outdoor space. Lovely pool

Contras: No tea/coffee making facilities in room.

Prós: Fantastic place! So close to the beach, the tent where we stayed was clean, comfortable, cosy, equipped with all necessary kitchen facilities. Toilets and shower-rooms are clean. Highly recommended for a relaxing holiday.

Prós: Tent well equipped and beds were comfy. Proximity to pool, beach and town is great. Toilets and showers cleaned regularly.

Contras: Signage/check in not clear. Tent security - one padlock provided but 3 openings. No recycling. Cleaning at the end is very prescripive and includes moving furniture out/inside to vacuum and mop. It was very windy and the tent was very noisy - not their fault!

Prós: The pools, water park and beach were wonderful. The bathrooms were always well serviced and clean. Great to have separate sinks for laundry or dishes. Laundry machines also available.

Contras: The tents are HOT. They are designed with only 3 small windows to open for ventilation, so don’t plan on spending any time in the tent once the sun is up. There is no shade. Also, be aware the company booking these ’Escapade’ tents has no connection to the actual Camping La Brise which is where you check in, so if anything is wrong with the reservation or the tent (I.e. you rented sheets but they are not there) they will only give you a phone number to call. Not helpful if it is after hours or you don’t have a phone that works in France. It is also a bit annoying that the only access gate to the beach is a bit far and doesn’t allow access after 9pm. If you come after that because you want to enjoy the beautiful restaurant La Playa on the beach, plan on walking ALL the way around to get back to the main entrance.

Prós: Near sea and nice town.

Contras: Not helpful and arogant personnel, speak only in french, no shade, can ' t get in or out after 8 PM by entrance near beach, dirty toilettes.

Prós: Location! Horses right next door, nice swimming pool, great breakfast! Very friendly staff!

Contras: Mosquito net was broken at both the door and the window. Should be replaced

Prós: Hosts are lovely , couldn’t do enough for us . Property is just lovely and the food was amazing . Will defiantly return again

Prós: Good location. Nice hotel, clean and comfortable. Sweaming pool is very usefull when it is a hot weather.

Contras: 1. Staff doesn’t speak english. The ladies (managers) even didn’t try to help and understand us when it was needed. First dinner our family (with 3 babies from 2 to 6 y.o.) was waiting for any food more then one hour in spite of the fact that we were the first who come to the restuarant. Others tables were served prior ours. Very strange situation. Only one manager (Mr) spoke english and was very helpful for us, but he apiared only the second day. If this manager was in the hotel from the beginig of our stay I give to the hotel 9,0. 2. Uncomfortable bath. You can use it only sitting not staing.

Prós: Location just outside the town of St Marie. Very relaxing.

Contras: Nothing

Prós: The location is wonderful and the property has been very good designed.

Contras: The service has been very poor. In our stay in Hotel they didn’t change any towels and make sure shampoo and shower gel is on place. It has been more then 4 days stay and we were still without changing shower gel and towels. The reception and staff should give more details to guests- with info what is happening in the area, what they can recommend. Give some information about their own restaurant. When they have dinner or at least try to explain the concept. The staff is not speaking English at all - very difficult to communicate if you’re not speaking French. I would suggest new owners of Hotel from June on - to train the staff and improve service. The room has been very small and not value for money. Bathroom bath didn’t work properly. The level we expect has been higher specially for a price you pay and service you get and the hotel is rated as one in collections of Chateux Hotels. Usually this type of Hotels has a very good reputation. Unfortunately the hotel will need to do some improvement and upgrade to stay within Collection Chateux group.

Prós: The hotel and grounds are traditional Camargue style. Very comfortable, spotlessly clean with a touch of luxury. Staff very friendly and helpful, great breakfast and offers a very relaxed feel. The bar/lounge area is tastefully decorated offering breakfast, hot and cold drinks and evening meal. The attached equestrian centre is very professional with healthy horses. Novices catered for.

Contras: Nothing.
