We were married here in Sept 2024 and it could not have been a more perfect experience. Our friends and family have rave reviews for their rooms, food, staff and overall experience. Could not rate our time more highly and highly recommend. Thank you to Laurent, Maya and the entire team for giving us the wedding of our dreams!!!

Not recommended

they wanted to give us a room full of mold, in the bathroom spiders and on the floor dirt. Incredibly! Alternative room was ok, but also not clean. Breakfast was ok, not possible to get boild eggs.
Chateau is nice, but you can see they have troubles maintaining.

The property is impressive, nice views, quiet, well located to visit many attractions in Occitanie snd Provence. However: internet works with codes generated by the reception, given for 24h and must be entered all the time. Dust in the room, dark corridors ( it takes too long in my opinion until the sensors turn the lights on), the decorations are too munch and cheezy, dying plants on the corridors.

This is an excellent option for anyone looking to stay in a beautiful historic castle surrounded by wine yards, away from the busy turistic places, yet within easy reach to what the region has to offer. It was an excellent room with a very reasonable price. Excellent experience for us! Recommended.

It was at leats weird. Staff did not speak decent english, just french. The parking is not well signed and it is like 200 meters from the hotel. At night the lights were off l, so getting from the parking to the hotel was not friendly at all. The room was not well clean. We found a fake nail at the bed table, also a rest of an eaten apple behind the window curtain. Also some hairs when we open a bed. There was a smell in the room like somody were cooking stew or something alike.
As the restaurant in the hotel was closed we ask in advance ( 15 days) the hotel staff to book as a table at a nice nearby restaurant, they book us a table at a place that was 25 minutes far. We suggest to change the reservation to a closer location. They book as a table at a nearby crepe restaurant. When we arrived there and decided to not eat there we found in google a restaurant one block away that used to have a michellin star. Food and service was great. We couldn't get the chance to try their restuarant so before booking the hotel check if their restaurant will be open, if will not it does not worth to stay there, at all.

Beautiful hotel in true castle, needs polishing

Absolutely beautiful location and property. However, for the amount we paid I would have expected more. There is not enough signage (by a long shot), so we were quite confused as to where to part the car and enter the hotel. The parking is too far away and accessibility is poor. We were unable to dine in the restaurant. I would expect to have enough dining capacity for all the guests. Inexperienced staff (but they do try).

Southwest France Gem

Although the entrance was difficult to find in the dark, Clarisse (reception, who had stayed late for our arrival and arranged for the kitchen to stay late to feed us) walked out to the parking lot and guided us to the front entrance. She went above and beyond on our behalf our entire stay. What a beautiful relaxing place to stay. The grounds were beautiful and very walkable. The owners are ensuring this will be a desirable destination for decades to come.

Nous avons réservé une suite pour une nuit à mi-chemin de notre trajet entre l’Espagne et la Suisse, 2 adultes et un enfant en bas âge. Nous avons sélectionné l’hôtel pour son calme, son confort et son restaurant. Arrivés à 16h, nous apprenons que le restaurant est fermé du dimanche au mercredi. Pas de snack bar, pas de room service, pas de staff, chateau vide (et quelque peu lugubre malgré des rénovations modernes et un état propre). Plus personne après 20 ou 22h… On nous donne la liste de 3 restaurants ouverts un lundi soir nécessitant d’y conduire (rien à côté!) un ne répond pas, l’autre a arrêté de servir les soirs et le troisième me répond qu’il a fermé ses fourneaux à cause de la canicule pour préserver ses employés. Pas de dîner possible avant 21h avec un enfant en bas âge qui a faim… Au final, nous quittons l’établissement à 19h et rentrons en Suisse avant minuit. Un hôtel 4 étoiles qui n’offre aucune source de nourriture 3 jours par semaine est-il vraiment un hôtel, ou plutôt un bed & breakfast, aussi glorieux a-t-il l’air sur internet?

Potentiale er der, men blev skuffet

Omgivelserne var fantastiske! Slottet har potentiale til en super oplevelse. Desværre var værelset meget dårligt rengjort, med spindelvæv og beskidt badeværelse, og den tilhørende terrasse var også meget beskidt. Havearealerne omkring slottet og annekserne var ligeledes med stort potentiale, men heller ikke vedligeholdt som man kan forvente.
Restauranten var ok, men heller ikke mere end det, og der var ikke plads begge aftener, da man skulle have bestilt inden man kom. Det fik vi bare ikke at vide på forhånd

belle sérénité

Repérer le parking est un peu compliqué,en contrebas, loin de la réception pour les valises, une fois trouvé l'endroit est exquis, le château imposant et magnifique ; les extérieurs vignoble et jardin parfaitement entretenus. La chambre permettait une petite vue sur le pic st-loup, la salle d'eau immense aurait pu offrir plus d'espace pour le petit receveur de douche. Le resto fabuleux, petit déjeuner parfait. Excellent week end.

Restauration indigne du cadre à éviter

Vous arrivez en voiture et aucune indication dans le parc On ne sait pas où débarquer les bagages
Même la réception n’est pas fléchée .lLes chambres sont à 250 mètres du château dans l annexe mais elles sont belles .
Expérience désastreuse pour le repas musical du soir aussi bien le service que les plats

Wunderschöner Ort mit grosszügigen Zimmern, einem sehr schönen Park und guten Betten. Leider hatte es keine Minibar/Kühlschrank im Zimmer. Das Hotelpersonal war sehr freundlich.
Das Hotelrestaurant ist leider sehr schlecht und entspricht nicht mehr der Saison 2021, da der Koch nicht mehr derselbe ist. Dies wird sicherlich viele Stammgäste enttäuschen.

Pas på - frokost kun muligt visse dage!

Restaurant (også pool-bar) lukket. Frokost kun muligt ved at forlade hotellet og gå i Carrefour 800 mtr væk.
Middag aften: OK, men niveau ikke over et typisk brasserie/bistro.
Til gengæld dyrere.
Når man skal gå i Carrefour for at få lidt mad, lever stedet ikke op til forventningerne

Mon erreur a été de faire confiance à cet hôtel 4 étoiles.... la chambre était sombre tet la décoration inappropriée. Café pas bon. Déçue.

Exceptionnel

Arrivé dans ce lieu exceptionnel, très bon accueil du Parsonnel dans ce paysage hors du commun.Les locaux sont très bien entretenus et les mesures de sécurité liées au Covid sont faites de manière à se sentir en toute sécurité dans cet établissement.
Chambre \"signature\" de très bonne qualité de finition et calme. Tous les équipement s de confort sont présent (seul manque dans la chambre serait un petit réfrgérateur).
la piscine est immense (longueur entre 20 et 25 m permettant d'effectuer des lognueurs de bassin.
Cadre fantastique qui permet de se détendre.
Repas 4 plats en terrasse avec explosions de saveurs àchacun de celui-ci avec en prime, un mini concert du groupe \"my favorite jazz\", qui a su se fondre sans occuper la place, tout au long du repas.
Petit déjeuner complet le matin avec produits locaux faits maison servi en terrasse : un régal.
Le Personnel a eu l'amabilité de nous laisser prolonger un peu le séjour en matinée afin de profiter à nouveau de la piscine.
si vous passez dans le coin, il faut impérativement passer dans ce lieux fantastique de beauté, de plaisir et de détente : à recommander impérativement.
bravo à toute l'équipe.

Très bien accueillis, amenés jusqu'à notre chambre par la réceptionniste, rare... Très bon restaurant dans l'hôtel. Petit déjeuner avec de bons produits mais pas très original. Le château et le parc sont magnifiques (quoiqu'il y ait encore pas mal de travaux autour mais qui ne gêneront en rien le séjour)? Très belle et grande piscine (on peut nager...) dommage que ses heures d'ouvertures soient restreints de 9 à 20h.

Le château de Pondres est un lieu très reposant et accueillant. Cependant quelques points sont à revoir. Le château a été en rénovation durant des années et bien que la grande majorité des chantiers soient terminées il subsiste encore des endroits où ce chantier est visible, cela fait un peu tache dans le décor. Le petit déjeuner bien que très satisfaisant n’est pas non plus exceptionnel. Le point le plus négatif que j’aurais à retenir est l’isolation phonique des chambres qui est plus que médiocre ( Entendre son voisin vomir dans sa salle de bain n’est pas la chose la plus agréable). On entend très souvent les personnes à côté parler ce qui est dérangeant la nuit notamment.

Fantastischer Aufenthalt in liebevoll restauriertem Schloss mit Aussenpool und riesigem Umschwung.

Wunderbares Erlebnis

Wir haben eine Nacht im Château de Pondres verbracht und waren sehr begeistert. Zufälligerweise übernachtete wir in dieser Gegend, da es Stau auf der Autobahn hatte und wir dem Stau dadurch ausweichen konnten. Am Abend haben wir auch im Restaurant essen können, welches sich im Chateau befindet. Die Bedienung war sehr zuvorkommend und auch das Essen war grossartig. Die Menuezusammenstellung war sehr kreativ und hat uns überrascht durch die Kombination vieler frischer Zutaten und spezieller Gewürzmischungen. Da Zimmer war sehr sauber und alle Zimmer waren unterschiedlich eingerichtet. Wir konnten zwischen 2 Zimmern wählen und haben dann die Nummer 4 gewählt, obwohl uns auch die Nummer 8 sehr gut gefallen hat. Am nächsten Mürgen haben wir ein wunderbares Frühstück genossen und sind etwa eine knappe Stunde durch den Schlossgarten gewandelt. Es steht ein Schwimmbecken zur Verfügung, das nun auch noch durch den Bau eines zweiten Beckens ergänzt werden soll. Wir haben die Bauarbeiten sehen können. Leider war der Wellnessbereich mit Hamman noch nicht zugänglich, das hätten wir sehr genossen. Nun, das ist ein Grund zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt nochmals vorbeizuschauen und den neuen Wellnessbereich dann auszutesten. Der Parkplatz für das Auto ist im untersten Bereich zu finden, man muss also zuerst das ganze Gelände umfahren und kann dann mit dem Gepäck durch den Schlosspark schreiten. Ein Lift führt dann in die Lobby des Hotels.

Renaissance réussie

L'hôtel ouvert l'an passé dans le Château de Pondres est un havre de paix et de luxe que nous avons eu grand plaisir à tester pendant 2 nuits. Notre chambre \"signature\", donnant sur les vignes et le Pic Saint Loup était très bien meublée , accueillante et bien chauffée. L'accueil d'Anne est délicieux et prévenant, les petits déjeuners copieux et servis avec le sourire; quant au restaurant que nous avons visité, il est hautement recommandable par la qualité et l'originalité des mets ainsi que par la gentillesse du service. Nous espérons y retourner bientôt, quand nos obligations nous ramèneront dans le Gard.

Traumhaftes Hotel

Es war einer unserer schönsten Urlaube bei Ihnen im Hotel! Angefangen bei den großzügigen Zimmern, den hervorragenden Betten, die kuschelweichen Handtüchern und dem erstklassigen Frühstück. Leider steht auf der Internetseite nicht, dass es einen Pool gibt - der ist auch vorhanden und sehr schön. Im Zimmer fehlt nur die MInibar für ein kühles Getränk. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig und trotzdem ist man gut angebunden. Wir können das Hotel auf jeden Fall empfehlen. Das Personal ist in jeder Situation immer freundlich geblieben. Daumen hoch!
