Traditional provencal style hotel that has recently been tastefully renovated with lovely bathrooms. Ideally situated for trips to Valbonne, Mougins and Cannes. Huge parking area and next door to an excellent Italian restaurant, Trattoria Quattro.

Overall we had a great stay. The rooms and property are well kept and very clean. There is plenty of free parking with the exception of lunch and dinner hours due to sharing a parking lot with the restaurant next door (which is understandable since the food there was amazing). The pool area is very relaxed. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely stay there again on a return visit.

Great room on the first floor with a nice balcony overlooking the pool. Very comfortable, great amenities and highly recommended. The only slight negative was that we didn't have a door on the bathroom which some people might not mind.

Shortage of doors in France?
Wonderful hosts, great location and beautiful surroundings. Mosquitos were a slight bother around the pool, and the popularity of the restaurant attached to the hotel meant that parking spaces could run out between 7pm and 9pm but the only real issues we had were that there weren't enough doors! No door on the shower meant the bathroom floor flooded every time, and no door on the bathroom meant we had to draw the full-length curtains every time someone wanted to use the toilet, or people walking by outside got the full show through the glass patio doors! Either the hotel needs to screen the rooms from people walking by with some cleverly placed shrubs, or they need to invest in doors. Having said all that, I recommend La Bastide and we will definitely return soon.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
it was clean and quaint. one of the reasons I booked this hotel because of the pool. When we arrived the pool had no water and the female staff member I spoke to was nonchalent about the fact there was no water and was patronising when I asked when it will be full. During my stay I couldn't use the pool for this reason and other friends who booked the same weekend for a bday in France were also disappointed. Also we couldn't sit outside on deck chairs because she couldn't be bothered to put out all the cushions until we had to ask her but that seemed like a task for her. The reception area also needs music for ambience, it feels like a library that you can't talk in.

Nic hotel, but late night noise from kitchen.
Nice hotel with character. However rooms towards the back left of the hotel along the corridor are directly above the kitchen of the Italian restaurant attached. Therefore we were kept awake until midnight every night and there was often banging in the morning too. We asked to moved rooms but the staff said they couldn’t help us as the hotel was full. Also we unfortunately had a room without a balcony.

Great hotel. Great staff. Very bad Wi-Fi.
We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel La Bastide De Valbonne. The room was spacious and clean. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. We really liked the pool/terrace area. The Wi-Fi, however, was unacceptably poor - especially when the neighbouring restaurant was full of customers using the shared internet connection. With Instagram inaccessible, I was forced to talk to my partner at breakfast. ;)

Hotel of choice in area, much better option than golden tulip. Only issue is room on ground floor near reception can be noisy in morning when people walk down corridor to breakfast room in reception. Breakfast is basic but ok, recommend going early though as there was not much selection by 9:30. Staff are great.

.SIX LOVELY DAYS IN VALBONNE, COTE D'AZUR
Most helpful, pleasant staff. Location quite convenient although difficult to walk into Valbonne itself, due to distance and lack of pavement. Only real complaint was the pool area which was quite confined with all sun loungers crammed into one side, the other side being restricted to a plethora of tables/chairs which were never used by guests!! We enjoyed the brightest and best located room on the first floor with a balcony overlooking the pool. Small bathroom but most comfortable bed.

Out in the middle of No Where
I see why this hotel had openings when all others were booked full. It is in the middle of no where. It is Not in Valbonne!! Even our Uber driver had difficulty finding it. We arrived ready to put our bags in the room and get some dinner. However, should you not want to eat at this hotel's restaurant, you are going to have to drive to Valbonne, so again called Uber. Once in at the tiny town, most of the restaurants were booked with previous reservations. In the room, the tv was crammed atop an old dresser in a closet. The view outside the room revealed some dry and dead bushes against a view of the road. Breakfast was the only positive. It was good and seating was by the pool. Went to Valbonne from a Rick Steves recommendation. My husband I were in France 2 weeks and Valbonne and La Bastide were the low point of our trip. Every other town OUTSIDE of The Valbonne area/La Bastide and our vacation experience was wonderful. I am cautious of information that gives sparkling reviews of hotels, restaurants, towns when contemplating travel. Cross reference information carefully when planning your trip. Who is writing some of these reviews stating XYZ was spectacular, I question?

Nice hotel but some room issues
Hotel was pleasant, quiet and relaxing around the pool. Staff were friendly. However our room was on the front facing the busy road and the car park for the newly opened restaurant next door. We also had a lot of noise coming from the kitchen of the restaurant through the connecting door at the end of the corridor our room was on which carried on well into the night, mainly dishes and cutlery being washed. Despite several discussions with staff nothing was done or offered about this other than moving rooms on the second to last night which at that point was more hassle than it was worth. The room was also a tight fit for four people.

A lovely hotel with very helpful staff
We were delighted with our week's stay at this hotel. The room was most comfortable and led straight out onto the patio and pool. Breakfast was fabulous and lovely to eat outside. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We found the location perfect with easy access to Cannes / Nice / Monaco and also the hilltop villages of St Paul de Vence, Gourdon, Mougins. We would certainly stay there if we visit the area again.

Friendly, quiet and comfortable
Stopped here for one night on a business trip and found it an excellent choice. The room was very comfortable in a cottagey, rustic style and there was an open fire in the lounge. Mid week in February and the hotel appeared really quiet. My satnav found it a little difficult to find and it's in a quiet, slightly remote area where you certainly need a car. The reception staff were excellent - friendly and helpful. Really nice breakfast as well. Will definitely return if I'm working in this area again in the future.
