Emily, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A quieter village is a break from tourist crowds in Avignon. The property is a touch of old school Relais and Chateaux. Beautiful grounds for outdoor dining. Several other restaurants in Villeneuve-Les-Avignon village.

Premises were beautiful. Bed was very hard
Geoffrey, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

This was not a 5 star hotel and description of rooms and hotel is very misleading. We’ve stayed at Relais Chateau hotels in the past and they were very nice. This hotel desperately needs remodeling. We requested an updated room but none were available so it’s clear that they’ve renovated some and not others but don’t disclose that information. For over $500 per night this was a disappointing part of our trip.
Loren, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location in town with separate parking. Room and bed comfortable with large balcony. Great service at desk and restaurant (breakfast & dinner).

We were so impressed with the whole village! Only problem-finding the entrance to the hotel, but wonderful after that!
James, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

For the most part, the staff was not friendly nor welcoming. I booked two rooms at the end of April for a July 19th chicken, chicken, and neither were close to each other. The goal of this trip is to be close to our adult daughters and we were in two separate buildings. We were accommodated on the second night of our trip with two upgraded rooms closer to each other however, the door to our suite broke and we were not able to use that room for that second night. We do commend the one staff member who went out of his way to try and resolve the door issue that night, however it wasn’t possible. The next day, when we went to move our daughters into their new room the staff members on shift at that time questioned whether or not we should actually be able to move into the rooms, questioning our honesty about what had occurred the day before with their colleague overall, we had an OK stay, the pool is lovely and was welcomed on hot days however the menu options at the pool are ridiculous. Nine euros for a can of Coke is not realistic.
Amelia, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great property right outside of the Avignon city center. Beautiful grounds make you feel like you are in the countryside although you’re a short drive into Avignon
Lam, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very cosy - elegant - fantastic swimming pool

The hotel is really comfortable and cosy. The swimming is beautiful. Fantastic spot to relax in the afternoon. The staff is very attentive. Decor is a bit dated - everything works. It is in a great small village within 10mn of Avignon. Do not hesitate to rent a city bike - super easy and a beautiful ride to Avignon Center.
Bernard, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

We had a nice stay. The property is very pretty. Room felt dated; linens/napkins were frayed; and when we walked from main lobby to our room at night, the stairs and landing had no lighting. Could have been dangerous. I think attention to updating/upgrading the hotel should be done.
Anne C, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Quiet. Peaceful. Pretty garden. But not tops in my experiences with Relais & Chateau’s of other places. Small room.

All good

Very comfortable and cozy hotel. Amicable staff. Perfect location. Remarkable buildings. Seems to be a be nosy if you sleep in the living room of the ground floor suit. The bed is good. The sofa is not comfortable for sleeping
Grigory, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Need to be renovated

The staff very friendly and very nice..the hotel very very old, the rooms don’t deserve a 5 star hotel.it needs renovation and for the price they are asking is not ok.
1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I recently stayed at the Prieure Hotel and had a wonderful experience. The room was absolutely beautiful, with tasteful decor and a comfortable bed that made my stay very enjoyable. The service was top-notch; the staff were attentive, friendly, and always ready to assist with any requests. The food at the hotel's restaurant was excellent. Every meal was a delight, with a wide variety of dishes that were both delicious and beautifully presented. The gardens surrounding the hotel are stunning, providing a peaceful and picturesque setting that made my stay even more relaxing. The only thing missing was a gym. It would have been great to have a facility for workouts during my stay. Despite this, I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Prieure Hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and serene getaway.
