Benvengudo - Les Baux-de-Provence

We stayed here for two nights with 3 kids - hotel is a lovely old Provençal farmhouse with a great pool and beautifully planted gardens. The rooms are a good size, tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. Bathrooms have lots of fluffy towels and nice Nuxe toiletries. However the icing on the cake was the restaurant- the food was superb (my husband said it was the best meal he had had all year -! And he is fussy). In high season you can eat outdoors on the lovely terrace overlooking the garden and pool. The only downside is the service is a little haphazard- they seemed to be a little short staffed, especially at breakfast, but it's all with a smile so not really a problem. Also - breakfast is just a continental buffet - and pretty basic at that, it seems a bit much to have an additional charge - why not include it in the overall price?

In a valley neat Les Baux, this newly renovated and adapted hotel on the base of an old farmstead there is receiving its guests in very well equipped and spacious rooms with nice views of the valley and the surrounding rocks. Comfortable rooms with nice bathrooms. Perfect service. Large outside pool. Gravel on all ways from parking to and between the buildings makes the transport of baggage a bit difficult and the baggage and trousers dirty.Excellent restaurant with food in Michelin-starred quality. Excellent regional wine list, perfect service.Not cheap, but really worth the stay, best for more than just one night as we had.

Beautiful hotel in very nice garden. Rooms are spacious ,clean and breakfast Is great. Above standarnd of most 4* hotels in France.

We ate here this evening. The weather wasn't good enough to eat outside which was a shame as pool side dining would be lovely. However the interior is very nice and intimate. The food was absolutely outstanding! Incredibly inventive, in season and local produce which is great in itself, however, the chef is amazing a putting together different flavours and textures that would rival Heston Blumenthal. Service was super, efficient and discrete. I would thoroughly recommend this gem; and really good value for money, especially compared with the hotel's better known near neighbours.

We stayed there for four nights in August 2013It was a superb experience.
