I was delayed to my hotel by several hours and was past check-in. I called the staff and they helpfully left a key to my room and printed out several signs directing me to the romantic "St. Valentin" room. The hotel is a 12th century monastery and every room is named after a Catholic Saint. I booked it as a surprise high-end property for my wife for our honeymoon and everything about it impressed her and gave us relaxing mornings, and a quiet place to crash after exploring provence. The food was fantastic, the views were breathtaking, and the memories will last forever.

Nestled in a mountain hideaway, Garrigae was a dream. With a majestic vista, the vast property transported us back in time. Our room, St. Luc offered us everything we needed, including luxurious and plush bath towels and a balcony overlooking magical fields of green. All staff members were friendly, responsive, and accommodating. The choices of coffee and the ability to squeeze our own juice were lovely touches. We hope to return. Emily &Dennis

This place has an unbeatable view and comfortable rooms with private outdoor space. We were unlucky with the pool being under maintenance in the early part of the season, which was disappointing, but happens. Dinner was excellent and the seasonal cocktail was delicious; eating on property is not for budget travelers.

Beautiful place with very nice staff. The view is really amazing.

Amazing views, it was a really special place. I would stay there again if in provence. It he pool area was very nice. The restaurant was very good, only a bit limited the menu. The hotel is very well situated to visit other towns.

We booked the largest suite for 5 nights many months in advance because we were traveling as a family, with elders. We called in prior to inquire about accessibility. The front desk staff assured us all would be well; it was not. The good, bad, and ugly of our stay. Good: The abbaye is beautifully situated with sweeping views. The service was mixed at best, but Marie-Claire who oversees breakfast service was a stand out staff member who genuinely cares. The maid service was good and consistent. Bad: The rooms were not as advertised. The air conditioning was not effective.We slept with open windows . The beds were not comfortable. The bed linens are poor quality; fine for 2-stars but not 4-star. There is no shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom and no electrical outlets. The shower sprays hot and cold without warning and the handle for the water is burning hot, as in second degree burn your skin off hot. The swimming pool is lined with plastic with no steps to access, just a ladder. Ugly: There is a gentleman at the front desk who incessantly and obsessively tries to up sell you on dining and services without listening to a word you say. He pushed my mother in law to climb an extremely old, winding staircase and when she said how scared she was he dismissed her and pushed her to reserve for dinner. Rude! He failed to show us around our room or explain how things worked which matters in a 900 year old place. We will not be back.

We loved absolutely everything about our stay. The views, the peacefulness, the history and the on-site dining. Every member of our family ranked it as one of our best-ever stays.

Firstly, what an amazing location, stunning views, but the access road was challenging with a low slung sports car. The room was a decent size with ok but only mid range amenities. Reception were very good and very helpful, but we were ignored for ages when trying to get a drink after a long journey. Very good dinner with some unusual menu choices, green olive custard on a desert was a first for me, but surprisingly it worked! Overall the property needs maintenance, there was peeling paint that was very obvious in the dining room and it had clearly been like that for a while. The bathroom was clean, but there were some balls of dust on the floor of the bedroom. A little bit of TLC and this hotel could be wonderful.

This was an extraordinary place to stay. The views were absolutely breath taking and the Abbey itself was so unique. We loved everything about this place and would highly recommend it.
