Hôtel La Bastide de l'Oliveraie & Spa — Hotel in Grasse

😃: Loved Loved loved this boutique hotel. You could be somewhere in the country. Never would you think Cannes beachfront and all its noise is just 15-20 mins walk away.

On our arrival around 10pm we were greeted by Karin, who gave us such a warm welcome, we even booked ourselves to the spa that evening (its open until 11pm!). Warm hospitality was consistent with all of the staff we came across at this hotel. It makes such a difference.

Our room was perfect for my 12yo Daughter and I. There is a kitchenette that is hidden away which is ideal. They also provide a filter for the tap water to reduce the need for plastic water bottles. The bathroom was very modern with perfect water pressure. Our terrace was like something out of a romance novel, we also had two sun loungers and terrace furniture so we could eat outside.

Lunch and dinner are not served- only breakfast but you're able to uber eats or get a takeaway from the local restaurants.

Beds were made up every day. It was a very special trip for us both.

☹: These are very minor because our (daughter and me) experience was great but.. The hotel is beginning to show signs of wear and tear.. there was a rip in my duvet cover (quite a large one), the bottom of my bedframe was ripped. The towels were also frayed quite a bit. The Aircon unit in the room omits quite a bright light which did wake me up on a few occasions when I left the aircon on. If this disturbs you, bring a sleep mask or something similar.

The balneotherapy pool (big jacuzzi) wasn't fully working, some buttons are broken.

Breakfast was 20 euros and continental. There was a very small hot food selection of scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon and boiled eggs. And for 20 Euros I would have expected a little bit more. This is the main meal the hotel provides. Everything else throughout the day is light platters of food, deli meats and cheeses. They do make you aware of this and provide some takeaway menus...

We were really happy with the hotel itself (including a beautiful room) and the lady that checked us in on Friday night was lovely and helpful. The only down point to the stay was the receptionist on Saturday/Sunday seemed a bit too blunt (bordering on rude) - when we asked if she could help us with dinner reservations she told us we could do it ourselves, among some other things. She did say if we had issues then she could help but not the sort of response we anticipated. Similarly on the Sunday, we had a 9pm flight and expected that whilst we check out of our room on time, we would be able to use the facilities (pool/restaurant) until we leave (we have done a LOT of travelling and have never had an issue with this) - again we were told that whilst we could leave our luggage, the latest we could be on site was 2pm. When we reminded her that we had a massage booked at the hotel at 2pm she said that wasn't a problem but suggested we leave after that! After the massages on our way out of the hotel she seemed to suggest that if we wanted to stay we could sit in the lounge and watch the TV but as that was of little interest, we made our way out. A bizarre touch on what would have otherwise been a...

Such a beautiful place to stay! We spend our 20 years anniversary at this lovely hotel. The whole hotel is very well maintained and super clean. The rooms having a very modern touch, very comfort beds and you wake up at the view of the pool if your room facing the lush garden and the hilly panorama over the hills. Its a quiet and relaxing atmosphere at the whole hotel. The infinity pool is heated and with a stunning view over the mountains. The pool area is surrounded by olive trees and pines. Its also includes comfort sunbeds and a fresh shower. At the roof top you will find a hot tub with ocean view, super cozy! They serve an well tasting breakfast, not just an croissant and some jam as many in this area. The couple who running this hotel is fantastic and take care of you and your wishes. We stayed for 6 nights and will absolute come back soon again and we can highly...
