This hotel was absolutely amazing and felt truly luxurious. The price is worth it for the views alone. I booked it mainly for the beach area and the infinity pool, and it did not disappoint. I stayed in a room with a balcony and ocean view—the balcony was huge, with incredible views of the water and all the boats docked nearby. The location is also perfect, with easy access to towns like the village of Èze and Villefranche-sur-Mer.
I would go back to this hotel in a heartbeat.

The Staff were 10 stars. They couldn’t have been more helpful. The Hotel is fabulous. Its history and its up to date style now are fantastic. Beautiful infinity Pool set in well cared for gardens. Indoor pool for serious swimming. So photogenic. Took many photos. The small private beach is a real treat. Cuisine is wonderful from breakfast to their special Chef’s menu. There’s no need to leave this heavenly haven. A perfect relaxing sanctuary.

Absolutely exceptional! Exactly what you would imagine French Riviera to be. The rooms, the views, the resort, the service was outstanding. I honestly can’t say enough good things. We prefer this more intimate hotel over Four Seasons in the area actually. We didn’t want to leave!

Beautiful hotel..

A beautiful hotel, we absolutely enjoyed the stay. However, it would have been helpful for the hotel to have told us prior to arrival that half of their facilities were closed already for the season. Only food option on property was a Michelin started restaurant tasting menu, or room service. The other restaurant had been closed with no warning for the duration of our stay.

Stunning, large, private, elegant property!!

This place lives up to and actually exceeds the beauty of the pictures you see. Sometimes the photography of the hotels make it look “more than it is” but you will NOT be disappointed. The size of the property, (grounds, pool & pool deck, beach area, places to dine and drink etc) are quite vast for the amount of guest rooms! What a treat.

Can’t say enough about this historic hotel. Absolutely amazing and so many spots to enjoy the wonderful view, have a meal or drinks. A very large pool and sun deck area and then another sundeck area down on the sea. Didn’t want to leave. Service was top-notch without being pretentious. Amazing staff in every department! Front desk was so helpful and friendly. Valet to housekeeping to servers, pool & beach crew .. everyone we encountered was excellent!

Beautiful Destination Hotel, Superb Service

Beautifully hotel among breath-taking surroundings of Cote d'Azur. The grounds are lovely, the rooms very well appointed. Had dinner at the restaurant - the food was first rate, with a very fine wine list. The service - from the front desk to room service and even housekeeping - was flawless. They have a number of other treatments at their spa but I went for a massage which was very good.

To balance out what would otherwise simply read GREAT all round, here are some considerations:
- It is a long and winding drive to get here - and so think about it as more of a destination spot, and a fine one at that.
- It's not inexpensive, but then you get what you pay for. I thought it was worth it.

Left us feeling a little meh...

There is no denying this property itself is amazing - stunning views, seclusion/privacy, and proximity to Nice and Monte Carlo. But, service was indifferent (one of many examples was that we did not receive a goodbye or thank you upon leaving the property despite being the only people departing or even just in the lobby at the time) or nonexistent (eg there is no concierge and no service at the lobby bar). The shower smelled like mildew, and the air conditioning in our room did not function properly (the front desk did try to assist us with this issue - by giving us a second room to sleep in that smelled so strongly of mildew that we decided to just sleep in the warm room where only the shower smelled of mildew). We felt like, especially for the price and small size of the property, service should’ve been far better (eg greeting us by name, stronger pool service, and nicer waitresses at the ficus restaurant). In the future, we might return if management of the property is turned over to a hotel group, but, until then, the lack of service unfortunately overshadowed the beauty and uniqueness of the property itself, in our opinion.

Beautiful hotel and property with incredible dining options. Our only critique would be the helpfulness and friendliness of the restaurant staff. At times multiple people were rude in response to our innocent questions regarding food preferences/limitations based on what we were ordering. I think it’s fair to ask questions at a Michelin star restaurant where you don’t have line of sight into the menu they will eventually serve you but will be spending over $500 for two people. That type of initial impression at such a nice restaurant sets a bad tone, and is a bit of a bummer.

Otherwise, everything was absolutely pristine and perfect. The location is one of the most beautiful in the world, and the room was very comfortable and clean.

One of the top hotels in the world

Staying at the Cap Estel felt like staying at a family home, because it is. The suites are generously designed to allow a group to have 3 or 4 bedrooms and share a very spacious living room, dining room and salon. Everything about the hotel was first rate, including the staff who are extremely helpful and attentive. The grounds themselves are beautiful. The hotel's management is clearly at the top of its game.

We did very much enjoy our stay for two weeks at the Cap Estel hotel. The location and facilities are stunning and the hotel staff is extremely friendly, in a very natural way. It offers the kind of personal hotel services you expect, but in today's world are nearly impossible to find. We did also enjoy the delicious food of the Michelin restaurant as well as the pool and spa areas. Cap Estel is definitively worth a visit and we have already booked our next visit.

En Oöverträffad Lyxupplevelse på Cap Estel

Jag hade en fantastisk vistelse på Cap Estel. Från det ögonblick vi anlände blev vi välkomnade med varm och personlig service. Rummet var rymligt och lyxigt, med en otrolig utsikt över havet. Faciliteterna, inklusive poolen och restaurangen, var förstklassiga. En oöverträffad upplevelse som jag varmt rekommenderar till alla som söker det lilla extra. Fem stjärnor!

Emplacement exceptionnel

Eplacement fabuleux au calme. Belle literie, belle chambre et attentions appréciables. Cependant, insonorisation de la chambre à 660 E inacceptable pour ce prix. Il n y a qu une porte non insonorisée, la lumiere passe à chaque passage d'une personne dont on entend le bruit des pas et la voix sans compter le bruit des portes qui claquent. Réveil en pleine nuit, au petit matin... Bref ce n est pas normal pour un hotel de ce sranding ou le but est de pouvoir se reposer.
Le restaurant est divin, le petit dejeuner est copieux et servi à table. Le personnel à la piscine est très agréable et serviable. Les piscines sont chauffées. La vue du jacuzzi au levé de soleil vaut le séjour et fait oublier les désagréments des bruits de la nuit... à prendre en considération pour améliorer la qualité du séjour.

décevant pour le prix

Séjour décevant - Une chambre très chère (pour la qualité) vue mer mais surtout vue sur les personnes qui passaient devant ma fenêtre et réciproquement - donc aucune intimité et j'ai contemplé mes rideaux pendant mon séjour.
Il existe de vrais 5 étoiles pas très loin, parfaits au point que même en se creusant la tête, il n'y a rien à leur reprocher et je me suis égarée dans cet hôtel dans cet hôtel qui ne mérite pas le prix payé
aussi ma chambre était la dernière du couloir et le wifi fonctionnait mal et lentement. Ce qui n'arrive pas dans un vrai 5 étoiles.
Bref décevant et je n'y mettrais plus jamais 1 pied
