The hotel grounds and facility are top notch. The service and the attitude of the staff there are below average. You’d expect a luxury level of service from a hotel in this class but it fell short in many ways. From restaurant service, concierge, housekeeping, and simply even knowing that we were guests staying at the hotel, they did not deliver.

The hotel is beautiful, the grounds are stunning and the restaurants wonderful. We loved our stay at Château de la Gaude. Getting there from the aiport was super easy, Uber and Bolt operate making it very convienient to get into Aix en Provence as well. The hotel had already preorganised bikes so we get cycle into the centre which was also a lovely experience. The pool area and the staff were amazing, as was the food and the wine. We dined at La Source which was also a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The staff always went out of their way to make you feel relaxed and welcome. The only 2 (very small) downsides are the wifi which is very intermitent and the water pressure in the shower, this was very weak at peak times. The room was otherwise beautifully appointed and we had everythinig else we needed during our stay.

The bed at this property in the duplex suite was very high quality and comfortable. The drapery did not black the room out for sleeping, and it got a bit hot sleeping on the top part of the duplex. We asked for a fan but they didn’t have one. Perfect sheets, pillows and great robes and towels. The room did not have a huge closet, no room to hang dresses. Restaurant was good, although there are a lot of bugs. Beautiful property overall, I would stay here again if in the area. Close to Chateau la Coste

Incredible location and estate! Set in a vineyard, this property had amazing views, amenities and staff. We went for a couple days in between Paris and Nice, for some downtime and Chateau Le Gaude exceeded all of our expectations. We did the wine tasting, hung out by the pool and ate at Le Source and Le Art. Cannot wait to return!
