The room was lovely, so we had to chase down coffee pods. There was no proper bar only in the restaurant which is open at certain points of the year. There was no menu in the room to order room service or drink. There was also no number for Reception on the phone. Great location short walk into Valbonne. We didn’t use the Spa but it looked fantastic and it had great reviews.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Chateau De La Begude Hotel, and it was truly a beautiful experience. The charm of the place is undeniable, with its picturesque surroundings and elegant architecture. The rooms were spacious and tastefully appointed, providing a comfortable retreat. What truly made our stay exceptional was the incredibly welcoming and attentive staff. We arrived late at night, and the team went above and beyond to ensure a smooth check-in process. Their warmth and assistance made us feel right at home. Chateau De La Begude Hotel is not just a place to stay; it's an immersive experience in hospitality and comfort. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a tranquil and welcoming escape. Kudos to the staff for their exceptional service!
