The hotel is first rate. We had balcony rooms on the second floor and they were large (almost suites) with beautiful bathrooms. The hotel was still very lush even in mid-October. The restaurant is the real gem of the property. It firmly deserves it's one Michelin star. We did have dinner there one night and though expensive it was one of the 3 best meals I have ever eaten. The breakfast at 30 euros per person was also noteworthy. So much fresh fruit, pancakes, eggs, nearly anything you could want. The service was top notch as well. The breakfast waiter went out of his way to direct us to a regional market in Vallbon which was a very nice day. This is a six star property in my opinion.

Good but not So Good

Good but quite out dated.. very high price of dinner menu ( €155 for one plate of steak) .. and €30 for breakfast ( not buffet).. the good is the overlooking view of St-Paul-de-Vence.

One of the most beautiful hotels I've ever seen. This little gem was our favorite during our two week trip. The views of St-Paul-de-Vence were amazing. We loved the little pool, the delicious breakfasts, and how close it was to the village. The grounds are absolutely stunning and the rooms are quite large and comfortable.

We loved our spacious rooms here! It made for a very comfortable stay. Big bathrooms with great tub for soaking, comfortable furniture in the rooms so you can relax. We also had patios that were charming so you can hang outside. Pool was great to hang out by as well with views of St Paul de Vence. It was very peaceful here, we very much enjoyed our stay. 5 min drive to the old town of St Paul de Vence which was super convenient. Definitely recommend!

Absolutely gorgeous hotel w outstanding service!

This is my fourth visit to Hotel Alain Llorca in one year, and I truly believe it is one of the most beautiful, special hotels on this earth. I have traveled extensively with an airline career, and amazed by this hotel’s beauty, along with incredible service. I was warmly greeted by Anastasia, whose customer service is outstanding. She brought me to my beautiful room, one I had stayed in before, and I am overwhelmed by the beauty of the landscape, the birds chirping, and the beautiful view of St Paul de Vence. I relaxed at the beautiful pool, and then ordered room service from the outstanding Michelin star restaurant. It was so delicious, and truly heavenly eating such a wonderful meal on my beautiful balcony. I am so grateful to have found this gorgeous property, with their amazing staff, and cannot wait to return.

Incredible hotel with outstanding service!

Hotel Alain Llorca is absolutely one of the most beautiful hotels on this earth! The hotel has a stunning view of the village, St. Paul de Vence, along with a Michelin star restaurant, which is absolutely delicious, and along with all of that, has an incredible staff, who truly make you feel so welcome with their outstanding service. This is my third visit to this beautiful hotel, and it has a lot to do with Anastasia, Pascal, Ana, Alan , Jeremy, and Laurence, the wife of the famous chef, who truly makes you feel like you are part of their family at this beautiful hotel. I cannot recommend this hotel enough, and cannot wait to return.

Gorgeous Hotel with an amazing staff!

This is my second visit to Hotel Alain Lorca, and it is truly one of the most special, and beautiful hotels on this earth. I was delighted to again be greeted by Benoit, whose customer service is truly outstanding. His warmth, and genuine concern for his hotel guests is truly sincere. You truly feel welcome and at home in this beautiful hotel. We had drinks on their beautiful terrace. There is an incredible Michelin restaurant. The views of St Paul de Vence are spectacular. The rooms are gorgeous-staying here is heavenly, and I hope to return every year.

Great location, property and layout. Excellent service at the hotel and restaurant. But the rooms and overall condition of the hotel need an update / paint, etc. Eg The fans in the bathroms aren't working (they run but are not extracting any air, probably because they're clogged). That results are black mold spots in the ceiling and around the windows in the bathroom. Also older appliances (eg hairdryer). We still had a god time there as we had gotten a good price. The location and service made up for the above.

Hotel was fabulous. A perfect place to recover from a redeye to France. The help was wonderful and accommodating and location close to the old town and Maight Gallery. We did not take advantage of the pool since it was a rare rainy day. Only complaint was overpriced breakfast at 30 Euros.

Amazing stay at beautiful Hotel Alain Llorca!

I had the most amazing stay at Hotel Alain Llorca. It is a beautiful hotel right outside of the village of Saint-Paul de Vence. I am so very grateful to have found this lovely property. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly greeted by Benoit, whose customer service was outstanding. When he brought me to my room, I was overwhelmed by its beauty, and the view was beyond my expectations. I had a beautiful view of Saint Paul de Vence, and the gorgeous countryside. I then had dinner at their outstanding Michelin star restaurant, and the food and service was incredible. I cannot say enough about the outstanding service from Sylvia, Benoit, Claudia, Jasmine and Sebastian, and all the employees. They truly make you feel welcome and at home. I cannot wait to return next year!

I have often stayed at this small boutique hotel and for me everything is perfect. The bathrooms are traditional and not clinical as often we find now in hotels. Personally they have character and never thing works perfectly. Powerful showers.
The restaurant is superb and all the staff very helpful and polite.
I highly recommend a few days or more for a stay at this beautiful hotel.

The restaurant is amazing! I had eaten there a year ago with the fantastic service and amazing food and wanted to stay in the hotel. So I booked it this time. Yes, it’s a very old building and I like the charm of it. However, there is no excuse for the quality of the mattress, pillows, the shower, and the towels. The bed is so old and hard that we both woke up sore. The sheets are of poor quality and the pillows are worn out. The towels are worn on the edges and I would throw them out. The shower is smaller than a cruise ship with a shower head you might find in an RV. The pool area is a joke. The rubber cushions make a flatulent sound with every move, the pool is ice cold in August, there is no view or breeze because it is walled off. This is a two star property attached to a 10 star restaurant

Wonderful hotel with gorgeous views

Fabulous food, tasteful, restful surroundings, beautiful location.
The staff were so friendly, willing to drive us up to St Paul at the drop of a hat.
On departure we were invited to sit on the terrace with a complimentary glass of wine and hors d’oeuvres while we waited for airport taxi.
A hire car for further afield would be useful as local taxis are pricey!! Uber is better.

Total relaxation

My wife and I stopped at Hotel Llorca for one night after a late flight to Nice. We liked it so much we returned 3 days later for another night.

We were too late for dinner on the night we arrived but after the fantastic breakfast, we made a point to book dinner in the restaurant on the return trip. Service, food and price were all excellent.

Lovely..but a lot of stairs!!

Madame is warm & efficient and staff all very pleasant. Since this hotel in perched in the hills, you must walk many stairs [39 from dining room to apts] .A. Llorca presents interesting cuisine and his brother, fabulous pastries. The view from the dining terrace is magnificent, especially of St Paul de Vence. Nice pool area.

Hotel Alain Llorca

Have lived in the area from the '70s to early '00s & never found a satisfactory hotel until now. Initially, it was run as a restaurant (Diamond Rose) & floundered. The new owners, the Llorca clan, have added rooms & a whole lot of flair. I have not seen such attention to detail anywhere out of the Far East. As to the food: I never eat \"green\" food if I can help it - until now. I relished every dish the \"Depardieu\" of the culinary world cooked up.
All served by efficient & attentive personnel. Prices you ask? No need to auction body parts - my stay was cheaper than at a Holiday Inn, the food came to less than most meals I've had in London. Breakfast was perfectly pitched in all senses. Then there's the unobstructed view of St Paul. The adrenalin rush is supplied each day by the hill climb out of the car park. Stunning. Absolutely stunning. Everything. Chapeau!

Hotel Alain Llorca - brilliant location

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel, the staff and management could not have been more helpful. We had an exceptionally good meal in the restaurant when we arrived which was a perfect start to our 3 nights in the area. The hotel is well placed for touring the area around Nice and St Paul de Vence which is only minutes away and which the hotel has a good view of. Alain himself even recommended and personally booked a restaurant in Nice for us which had tremendous atmosphere and great food. We shall certainly be back for another visit.
