Great location up high on the hill. Lovely pool. The surprise welcome drink was appreciated. Bar service was slow. The reception team spoke good English but bar and restaurant was difficult to communicate with. Bathrooms needed a refurbishment. All as to be expected though.

Best Hotel in St Denis

A very enjoyable stay. Excellent facilities. A great pool and wonderful panorama view of the sea and St Denis. Only slight criticism was price of meals and drinks but part of this stems from the dreadful exchange rates we get for our English pounds.

Would stay again.

Hotel was very nice. The staff were more than helpful. The food in the restaurant was excellent and also the wine. I would stay here again for sure. They provide a free shuttle bus into town and to/from the airport. They also took care of booking me a hire car which was very cheap. The view is great and the pool is fantastic. Its a nice place to relax. Yes the rooms are a bit dated but they were clean. No iron in room. Ordering food and drink in Restaurant/bar can be a bit slow. Slower than what i am accustomed to. So you do need to be patient and not in a hurry.

dated rooms

Hotel pretends to be 4*, standard rooms are however 2*, pool 4* so maybe average can climb up to 3*. Rooms are waiting to be updated, and for 2 decades now. Airport shuttle is most useful as a taxi costs 25-30e, however take into account that the shuttle runs only 9AM-5PM.

Convenient hotel with great view and good service

We only stayed one night to get to the airport early the next morning, without too much traffic. The location is great with a view over the city to the distant sea, but there are no restaurants or shops around. So we had dinner at the hotel, next to the pool area, which was okay, nothing too exciting. We had a premium room on the top floor with a great view, massive bathroom (shower over bath) and the room was of a reasonable size, too. Would stay there again.
