Hotel la Ponche

The hotel advertises breakfast included for an extra 30 euros per person. On arrivalyou learn its continental and pay extra for staples like eggs. We found that disappointing as we typically stay 5* and that had never happened to us before - not even in France

We paid up for a sea view suite. However the sea view was only “partial” but not advertised as such - so if sitting on the balcony only 1 guest could have the sea view. Overall I would say its a nice hotel but we compared it to other 5* on our stays which cost us easily 30% less a night, offering far more amenities like a spa, or japanese toilets in one case - if the room had been 500 a night instead of nearly 900 we we would have understood - even the restaurant was closed for dinner during our stay.

What’s not to like?!? This place was huge for Europe and perfect for families. The location couldn’t be beat and the staff!! The staff went out over their way to make EVERYTHING easy and comfortable for us. We liked it so much we extended the stay by a night even though we had nonrefundable paris already booked.

We loved everything!!

Excellent staff.The restaurant is a must even if you aren’t staying at the Hotel.John, the go to guy, helped us with extra.one of the happiest individuals I have ever met.

Excellent friendly service throughout the hotel. Central location

Rooms were tight like being in someone’s house. Location is hard for cars to get to as it’s inside the small alleyways.

Staff, location, cosyness

Small lobby, no driving access, a bit expensive for what it offers

Wow! That about sums it up. My partner and I hesitated booking this hotel due to the price. But after a busy time in London and Paris, we wanted to relax a bit and boy was this the place to do it! Every place we went, if asked where we were staying, we’d tell them La Ponche, every response repeatedly reassured us that we had picked the best hotel in Saint Tropez. It is central to absolutely everything and surrounded by the best restaurants and the marina. The service was exceptional. If you needed anything, the hotel staff would cater to you and in the most over the top way. They had live music in the bar and the attention to detail from start to finish was impeccable. There is also a lot of history to the hotel that they educate you on. And the rooms & bathrooms, while minimalist, the details are just out of this world. This was by far my favorite hotel (out of 5) during my holiday. There was also a restaurant called Casa Rocco about a 3 minute walk away, very quaint restaurant (owned by the same guy as Nikki beach) the BEST ossobuco I’ve ever had in my life. I highly recommend checking it out!

There isn’t a single thing I’d critique, it was truly the stay of a lifetime!

The staff were incredibly friendly. The concierge is amazing! She booked everything for us and we truly enjoyed the experience

No complaints!

Location and hotel charm

The shutters are too low and lets in light in morning at the top and disturbed our sleep so I tried a few times to put down the awning but the wind sensor kept putting it up again.

This is an old-fashioned style hotel that has been thoroughly redecorated (the smell of fresh paint everywhere). Perfect location, valet parking, extremely helpful staff. Spotless / clean.

Rooms are very well equipped, but also very small. Steep pricing (probably the norm for this location)

I liked the terrace that was part of my room and the view. It was also very quiet and peaceful. The restaurant of the hotel is excellent. Nice linens, robe, Aqua di Parma toiletries, kind staff and nice decor.

I had a lovely room, however there were stairs in my room and that was not stated in the room description. The hotel is very well appointed but stairs cannot be avoided, from what I observed,

beautifully curated, lovely details, excellent location, really kind staff

a bit pricey for what it was, and i found the room stuffy.

Very good location. Good service. Clean the room twice a day. Staff were very helpful.

Breakfast

The hotel has excellent guest customer service. All the staff is very friendly and helpful. Location is right in the city center. Room cleanliness and quality of amenities are impeccable.

The hotel has the perfect location in town and the it has been renovated in such a tasteful and classy way. It’s all about the details. The staff are exceptional as well I must say

If only they had a pool or a beach. But it’s not that kind of property I guess…

Slept thru

No elevator , but great historic building

Exceptional good food with dinner (and also breakfast). All personnel very friendly and effective

The building is limited in its possibilities. However the management has used the available space in an optimum way.

Hotel La Ponche was a dream, the design, ambiance, and entire staff were phenomenal! I cannot say enough how kind and helpful the staff were which made the stay so much better!

I wish there were fan options in all rooms to circulate the air.

Everything! I was really happy ♥️

Limited space in the lobby, check-in only after 16:00. If you arrive earlier you can’t wait inside the hotel. Maybe you can but it’s quite small. But i am okay with it! :)

Great location Amazing staff Lovely hotel in the old city Raphaële the concierge is super nice and very helpful, she recommended best places and organize the booking

The toilet in our room was too small but that’s it

The breakfast and dinner were delicious and staff were wonderful. A perfect end to a fabulous trip!

In error I thought the hotel had a pool… it didn’t but you are able for a price to use another hotel which worked well.
