The location is second to none, especially for hill walkers Breakfast plentiful Staff attentive and helpful Eating on the terrace delightful Pool an added bonus

Others have mentioned this and we agreed: meals are expensive but flavoursome and perhaps good value for Provence. We found more expensive options nearby which made the Relais choice seem more reasonable. We tripped a couple of times on their stairs, Our fault? Perhaps, but some steps are not clearly marked.

Breathtaking location, surrounded by dramatic rock faces and miles of open countryside. Wonderful food - both breakfast and the evening tapas menu, which attracts locals, were homemade, really tasty and creative. Totally peaceful and idyllic setting with excellent pool to escape the heat

Very little - rooms arguably a bit small and basic, although shower and en-suite excellent. Need a car for sure.

The calm and the view on the Sainte Victoire, waking up to the sunrise and sound of the Cigales is a great way to start your day! Super close to hiking spots, but best to have a car to discover the area. We haven't used the pool but if you stay for 2 nights or more I am sure it is a great location!

Brilliant location, great facilities, wonderful food in the restaurant, breakfast was great too, lots of choice.

Would have been great to have access to cold water during the day, also pool towels would be better than the bath towels. But minor things - overall was excellent

Beautiful location, Perfect pool, and very friendly staff. The dining options mixed fine dining and a casual, but delicious sharing experience. Breakfast had limited options, but what they had was perfect.

I would have liked a minibar in the room to enjoy a refreshing drink on the beautiful terrace of the room.

Beautiful location, friendly staff, good service and excellent food.

Lovely location with terrace and beautiful views. Comfortable bed and good breakfast, restaurant was excellent.

Room was very basic no comfortable chair and one desk and chair, shower room was good.

Very friendly and efficient staff Beautiful location and superb views

La nature, l’assiette, l’addition et la gentillesse du personnel

We stayed one night at Réalis de Sainte Ser, drawn by its stunning location—and in that regard, it absolutely delivers. Nestled in a beautiful part of Provence, the setting is serene and picturesque, which does help justify the premium price point of over €200 per night. Dinner was the highlight of our stay. The food was excellent—beautifully presented and clearly the work of a talented chef. Prices were higher than what we experienced in the Luberon, which was surprising, but the quality made it worthwhile.

However, the hotel itself didn’t live up to expectations. The facilities are quite tired, and the rooms are no better than what you’d find at an Ibis—not what you'd expect from a boutique hotel. Certain parts of the property are noticeably scruffy, which detracts from the overall experience. The service left a lot to be desired. Staff can be abrupt, and the hotel seems to operate with a set of rigid rules that prioritize staff convenience over guest comfort. For example, the bar/chill-out area is a popular evening spot, attracting over 20 cars despite the hotel having only 8 rooms. Comfortable seating is reserved by these outside visitors, leaving paying guests without access - even just for a pre-dinner drink. We were firmly told where to sit by Laurent, who was particularly forceful, despite many of the preferred seats remaining empty long after we left. We raised our concerns with the receptionist upon departure, only to be confronted by Laurent in the car park in front of other staff. He was aggressive and dismissive, unwilling to accept any feedback. It was an uncomfortable and frankly unacceptable end to our stay, especially after spending over €400 on the room and dinner.
