Château Le Cagnard

Wow, what a location. Thankfully we did our research and had read other reviews that we needed to park outside the village as you'd only every get the smallest of cars to the hotel. A quick phone call when we parked up (cemetery car park is free 24hrs) and they sent a nice chap (Eric?) down to pick us up in a little Fiat 500. The walk up/down to the car which I did in the evening is hard work. The restaurant/food was amazing, really enjoyed that and a stunning view of the sea and beyond. The next morning we ventured further up into the medieval village and up the castle, really worth doing. They have a tiny pool (indoors technically) but has jets/waterfalls and a resistance pool allowing you to swim in it. The hotel itself was stunning and multi-levelled, our room was across the road, when we entered the hotel we'd need to go up two different stairs to exit the street above, it reminds you how steep the location is. Staff were amazing, made us feel very welcome, special thanks to Fiona who went the extra mile to ensure wedding anniversary was extra special. The room was stunning, ours actually had two air-con units, which we really appreciated as it was close to 40c that day. Very comfortable bed, secure (we slept with balcony doors open). Will stay again!

Nice location and beautiful landscape. Nice historical building,good restaurant wjth beautiful landscape. Good hospitality.

It was slightly difficult to access to the hotel. We had to park our car at public parking lot ,and had to call hotel shuttle service.

My partner and I had a lovely stay at Chateau Le Cagnard for the last 3 days. The hotel is in this medieval town on the top of a mountain and looks down over the valley so you have this amazing view through the valley. Perfect for watching the sunset with cheese & wine on the terrace. The staff at this hotel make the stay fantastic, we had a few requests and they helped us out perfectly without complaint. The room had a heap of character and was very clean.f you're looking for a hotel to stay at that is central to all tourist locations (like Nice, Antibes, Chateau Le Cagnard, Saint Paul De Vence) this hotel is great if you have a car as everything is within 20-30 mins away.

Everything was great at the hotel and would definitely recommend & stay again. The only issue we had was a light sewage smell in the bathroom each morning but you sometimes get that with multi-level hotels. Also, be mindful that the hotel has a lot of steps and you'll need to park your car down in one of the carparks and organise a collection (free) by the hotel staff as the roads are very tight and you can't drive up to the front of the hotel.

The view was lovely - over the valley below and beyond to the Mediterranean. The location was difficult to access as expected. Not recommended for anyone with mobility issues. The room was a little quirky in design and layout but comfortable overall. The breakfast was excellent. Sitting out on the terrace for breakfast, and dinner if you have it, is well worth it if the weather cooperates. Although the indoor pool is small it does have multiple massage jets.

After pickup on arrival by car, you are basically on your own to figure out how to access the hilltop village from your parking below the village.

The staff were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. They even dropped me to the station each morning and I could call them to meet me off the train after work. Bed was very comfortable, room quiet and large.

The only down side was not having access to internet from my room, so my data roaming charges are significant. I was in a house in the village and the wifi did not reach. It would not have been an issue if on holiday and just a daily check in but with alot of prep to do for meetings not so good. Then again this is not the normal location for a business traveller. I would have no hesitancy coming back despite the lack of internet in the room as the hotel more than made up for that issue.

The property was beautiful and ancient! They did a great job of preserving its antiquity and still making it modern and comfortable. Rooms were big and very comfortable and the views were breathtaking!

This village is tricky to get to if you're elderly or disabled. The village is so charming and beautiful but there is no parking at the facility. You need to know that parking is below the property and it is a short hike up to the village. The property staff was on the spot to help with luggage and picking us up from lower parking lot. There was no wait time and they did ALL of the heavy lifting to make the trip up the mountain worth the "climb". Any able bodied person can walk to the hotel with ease. I just wouldn't recommend this property to disabled travelers.

A wonderful, charming hotel in this beautiful medieval village. Every room has its one name and character. The staff are all super nice and friendly—from the moment they picked us up from the parking lot to the moment we left. There’s a very small resistance pool which is more for cooling off in as a plunge pool (with a glass of rosé) than for swimming—it was well appreciated on a hot day. I would’ve loved to stay longer. I also wish I’d known about their popular restaurant — with a rooftop that opens when the weather allows—beforehand so I could’ve booked. It has great reviews but it was unfortunately full on the night we stayed. But one of the staff recommended a restaurant in the square in front of the chateau, which was lovely.

They should probably make it clear that the "pool" is more of a plunge pool, and not a pool for swimming laps. Otherwise, it was a perfect stay.

Everything! This Hotel is like a fairytale hotel set in a fairytale village! It is the most charming and cozy hotel I have ever step foot in! Everything about the property was fantastic and all of the staff were wonderful and so accommodating. All the rooms are unique, super clean, luxurious, and very comfortable. I truly can’t say enough fantastic things about this hotel! Thank you for the best stay, we only wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Nothing!

Gorgeous location and extremely cool facility with tons of history behind it. The view from our balcony — coastline and ocean, mountains on the side — was to die for. Being situated in the medieval village, which was fun to explore, was a bonus. Staff: Incredibly friendly and helpful. Honestly, everything was just about perfect.

Not a complaint, but there are better and worse ways to solve the access from town issue. Website is clear about three parking lots where taxi or Uber can drop you. As rookies we chose the one that required quite a hike up the hill with luggage. Call ahead and they can tell you the better options, and even pick you up at the drop point.

Location is very special - on top of an old hill town/fortress, but still reasonably easy to reach on foot or by taxi. The town is very charming. Do read the arrival instructions which they send you prior to your stay - everything is very well explained there. The rooms are cute, have an antique feel to them. If you luck out - you may get a room with a view (some rooms have a view to the narrow street outside). The staff are all very nice and welcoming, very helpful (and speak good English). They provide recommendations and advice / directions. The whole hotel has an ancient castle feel to it, with vaulted ceilings and stone artwork from 1920ies. The restaurant is top quality and boasts an amazing view towards the coast. The breakfast was expensive but had good quality food.

The “luxury” part is kind of missing. Everything is fine but hardly astonishing.
