Lovely historic Chef-Patron owned Hotel with a 1 Michelin ⭐️ Restaurant and Bistro. Beautiful buildings and interesting grounds. The 1⭐️ is only open on certain days, so wise to check if you’re booking for that Restaurant especially. Bistrô Gaby provided tasty food. All the staff were welcoming, including the Chef-Patron himself and his lovely dog. Lovely, comfortable authentically decorated room. Superb outdoor Pool accessed via a beautiful garden path. Good Parking. We would have liked to have stayed longer. Loved the relaxed yet quality vibe and intend to return.

Nothing really. Maybe minor difficulty initially in knowing where to go to request drinks etc. No obvious Bar, other than in Gaby, orders taken by staff and delivered to wherever you’re sitting.

We arrived at La Bonne Etape after a long car ride - were feeling tired . This hotel had been selected as our " splurge " hotel as it had a Michelin star restaurant and was a Chateau and Relais hotel. When we arrived we were greeted outside the front doors by our wonderful host Stephanie. She was most welcoming - got us settled and made us a reservation for dinner at Cafe Gabby. It was so nice not to have to go out to find a restaurant - ate at Gabby twice.Our Michelin star meal was for our last night.Our room was spacious and had a lovely view of the pool , mountains and gardens.A carafe of water, biscuits and a lovely welcoming note were left in our room - a such a nice touch. Stephanie suggested what to do in the area and as well as walking trails close by.The public spaces were beautiful - filled with elegant furnishings and paintings. Our final dinner at Bonne Etape was beyond expectation - had wine pairings with the courses - amazing service, beautiful presentation on lovely serving dishes - very polished service.The Master Chef came around after the meal to see if we enjoyed our meal- an unexpected but very special surprise. Tuck in service in our room was appreciated each night with a special herbal tea and " jelly" candy! Tourist Brochure in the room was very handy. Huge fan of L'Occtaine - which was the toiletry product used.

There were two very minor things in our room- towel warmer did not work and shower head was hard to aim so it did not flood the floor. Minor paint touch ups needed in the bathroom. In Cafe Gaby - upgrade the wine glasses ( small and not great quality) - did not match the quality of wine offered on the wine list plus provide a toaster for guests to use at breakfast, so staff member does not have to go back to the kitchen to toast bread.

My husband and I can’t say enough wonderful things about La Bonne Etape. It is a truly special and magnificent place! Our trip got off to a rocky start when we encountered bad thunderstorms on our drive to the town. As a result, we were going to arrive very late at night and were concerned that we wouldn’t be able to check in. We were also hungry (!) and so messaged the hotel and asked if they could leave a little snack in the room for us. And to our pleasant surprise, not only did a lovely staff member named Lucille come out to greet our car when we arrived very late, but the chef had made some incredible sandwiches for both my husband and I! It was such a nice touch and so appreciated after such a long drive. As for the hotel itself- what can we say? Simply perfection. Stunning rooms with beautiful views. Perfect location to explore the surrounding towns. A convenient car park located directly across the street from the hotel. The pool is clean and gorgeous. A staff member walks around and asks you if you want any drinks. They are so accommodating and try to give you whatever you need. I also highly recommend taking a walk thru the magnificent gardens of the hotel which is right near the pool. They are simply beautiful. And the restaurants - wow!!!! My husband and I eat at Michelin restaurants all the time and Chef Jany Gleize and his daughter, Jane, and staff are masters at what they do. They have definitely earned their Michelin star but we think they deserve another! Their attention to detail is incredible and their creativity is something to see. My husband and I ate at the Michelin restaurant on 2 different nights because we loved it so much. We must have mentioned that it was our wedding anniversary, because the restaurant surprised us with a special cake for dessert. What a treat! Thank you to all of the staff of that amazing restaurant for everything they did to make our visit special.

Nothing! It’s paradise :)

The smell of lilacs by the pool was incredible! Our suite was so charming and a perfect place to relax.

If you are looking for lots of surrounding activities in village this is not your place. It is an incredible escape retreat to stay.

Very nice B&B situated in quiet Chateau-Arnoux Saint-Auban. The bedroom was spacious and comfortable, the pool is wide and deep enough for a good swim. The staff is attentive. The restaurant is a Michelin one star so not your average $30 - $60 menu, but I really enjoyed the cuisine.

Beautiful old building perfectly maintained Great staff Quiet with not too many rooms

The bistro menu is quite limited

Great location in Alps de Provence. The hotel and restaurant are delicious. The breakfast is great.

The wifi in the property wasn't the fastest.

The staff and the flexibility to accommodate our needs

The surroundings of the hotel that are not inviting to discover by walk.

Beautiful setting with lovely restaurant and good breakfast. Relaxing pool and garden.

The hotel has a nice provincial character
