Very disappointed

It was very disappointing having read such great reviews. I think we were in an older room….. toilet was like a black room! Black painted walls trying to hide pipes and poor wall condition. Holes in the floor where pipes come through. Bed head was old rusted shutters…..probably vintage but…… poor pillows and uncomfortable bed. Our paid parking had been double booked due to a clerical error. Location was fantastic and staff very nice. First time we’re stayed with a hotel.com place and felt so let down. It was not a cheap stay either! We’re well aware island life is not cheap as we live on one!

Accueil sympa et pro, bienveillance et humour. Belle déco avec goût et charmant. Bien tenu, propreté irréprochable. Petit déjeuner complet. Bonne literie. Manque juste double vitrage chambre 1. Dommage que la fiabilité des démodulateurs TV ne soit pas au RDV. Nous recommandons tout de même sans frein.

Amazing place. We had room 10 which I had seen some people moaning about in reviews as has no window, was dark with no ventilation and had a funny smell. Let me tell you that room 10 is great!!! Yes no window but doors have shutters which allow plenty of light and air in. Granted the wardrobe was a bit musty however nothing a bit of airing didn’t sort. If you want to stay at the Ritz, then book the Ritz, however if you want to stay at a beautiful French shabby chic cosy and tranquil hotel then this is for you!!! Cannot recommend highly enough!!!!!!!

Verified traveller

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Très décevant

Cela pourrait être un très bel établissement mais tel n'est pas le cas ! Vouloir respecter le caractère typique ce n'est pas faire fi de toute notion de confort. Aucune insonorisation, pas de climatisation, équipements hors d'âge, voire hors d'usage... Propreté vraiment discutable, même pour les oreillers ou les serviettes ! Un accueil très mitigé, agréable à l'arrivée, froid et même désagréable pour la petit déjeuner. En parlant de ce petit déjeuner, café insipide, sinon ce sont de bons produits En résumé avec une rénovation de fond en comble ce pourrait être génial, mais la réalité est une séjour gâché par des conditions globalement désastreuses.

Très bonne adresse

Il s’agit d’une maison de charme très bien décorée Avec beaucoup de surprises agréable Le problème est avec Hotels.com qui avait annulé ma réservation antérieure : je me suis retrouvé sans Chambre. Heureusement, la maison douce a pu me proposer un hébergement. Je les ai remercie. Par contre, je suis en litige avec Hotels.com : il est très difficile à avoir et quand on leur envoie un mail, il nous répondent qu’ils mettront 72 heures : le service client d’Hotels.com n’est pas à la hauteur

Mitigé j'ai pas eu la bonne chambre 😔

L'hôtel est situé dans un quartier calme. L'accueil professionnel et souriant. La chambre était spacieuse et confortable. Le problème lors du séjour a été que je n'ai pas eu de TV(image qui figeait sans cesse) le wifi fonctionnait mal et ma chambre au rez de chaussée était côté de la porte d'entrée des résidents. Du coup entre le claquement de la porte, les touristes qui parlait très fort entre 23h et minuit, le bruit des vélos, le repos était relatif. Je pense que les chambres situées en fond de cour ou à l'étage doivent être "douce"

Quirky hotel, lovely staff, location great (in the middle of St Martin). It was an adventure finding it through the narrow cobbled streets and then had to park 1/2 mile away - fun though. Lovely courtyard ideal for an aperitif Would definitely recommend. Staff couldn't have been more helpful

Havre de paix

Cadre de l’hôtel très agréable, bien situé proche du centre dans des ruelles tranquilles. Il faut s’organiser pour amener ses bagages car il n’y a pas de place pour stationner à proximité. L’hôtel étant ancien, on peut entendre les autres clients si ceux ci ne sont pas discrets.
