Hostels in Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, Frankreich

Found this place a couple of days before departure, wondered if it was too day to be good. but it wasn't. Staff were lovely, let me charge my phone, helped me with a locker, printed boarding ticket... Room was fab, was in a all female dorm. Dorm mates were a little inconsiderate banging doors and keeping lights on but that is selfish people for you - overall I slept well. Walking distance to the pier, safe area. Would return

Ich nahm eine Chance auf dieses Hostel, als ich im letzten Moment umschaltet, dachte ich, es könnte ein Party Hostel sein, aber sie versichert mir, dass die Zimmer ruhig sind, die sie sind wie in Ihnen nicht zu laut hören, die Musik, Aber da alle da sind, um zu feiern es schlägt es ein bisschen ins Zimmer. Nicht beschweren, nur beachten. Die Lage ist großartig, es ist ziemlich sauber, wie die Hostels gehen, Das Personal scheint nett esp die Chap auf dem Vordertisch, Ich weiß nicht, wie er heißt, aber er ist aus Manchester und ging oben und darüber. Die wirkliche Enttäuschung für mich war die Dinge, die als angeboten werden, die nicht. Ich reise solo, so dass ich wirklich gerne die Möglichkeit zu essen im Hostel, Sie sagen, sie haben ein Restaurant, Ich fand es nicht, Sie bieten offensichtlich Nahrung, aber nur nach 7:00 Uhr, obwohl andere Gäste sagten, dass nicht. . Auch erklärten sie bieten Tee, Kaffee und warme Schokolade, aber sie nicht. Andernfalls war das Zimmer gut, Bett komfortable, Bar-Bereich schön. Ich würde nicht persönlich zurückgehen, nicht weil es schlecht ist, nur weil es nicht meine Szene ist. Wenn Sie nach einer Party suchen, obwohl dann ist es eine gute Wahl prob.

Ich kam unangekündigt, weil ich keine Buchung gemacht habe, aber das Personal war so willkommen und mich in meinem Gepäck für die Lagerung auslassen, bis ich einen Plan für die Nacht herausgefunden habe. Sehr willkommene Atmosphäre, die so groß für einen solo Backpacker ist. Danke für die Hilfe!

Spent 6 nights in a female dorm at Slo Hostel while visiting the French Rivera and overall, I had a great stay. Hostel looks very new and is clean and modern but in a historic building with lots of charm. Bed and Wifi are very comfortable. The pod beds are awkward to make and the drawers underneath are a bit awkward but honestly the attention given to designing those beds is commendable. The little mirrored chest in the beds for makeup and storage was a great idea. Never seen that before! Location is perfect for the train station, but it's about 10 minutes to Old Town with the nearby tram. If you're doing lots of day trips, it's a great spot, but to access some buses and the water, it's a bit far. That said, I didn't have an issue with it. Hostel does NOT have a kitchen, but there is a small fridge for guests. Hostel also does NOT organize any activities or events, which personally I was fine with. Breakfast is about 10 Euro and looked pretty good and well stocked. I didn't get it but saw it daily when I had my own breakfast. Dorm room also had good AC, which was so nice to have in late June in Nice. A few things to note: - Elevator is functioning but makes a VERY loud weird noise as it approaches the third floor. - The shared bathrooms and showers are fine, but some doors stick or don't lock well. And the ventilation in there is weird because it can definitely linger smells. - Hostel has NO guest laundry but there is a laundromat nearby. - The female dorm has huge windows that overlooks residential buildings. There are NO curtains in that room, which made me uncomfortable at times. They should really add that because changing in the bed isn't easy. - There can be some loud street noise in the evenings, but it's not too disruptive, just be aware. - Dorm room doors automatically slam, which shakes the walls and beds. I get why they do it (for fire protection) but it is really disruptive given how hard it slams. Staff is very helpful and willing to answer questions, just double check some of answers because I did get misdirected a few times. Overall, I had a great experience at the hostel and would definitely recommend it plus stay again.

A friendly and welcoming hostel that's great for all ages. I stayed in a twin room with my boyfriend for 4 nights and enjoyed it very much. It could do with a little TLC here and there but all things easily fixed. Good: • location brilliant (near main attractions and very close to a good Lidl) • staff great • communal spaces allowed for meeting others and mingling • fab Aircon in our room • nice to have an outside area Need improving: • The €6 (optional) breakfast isn't worth it (baguette, few bits of cheese, tea/coffee) needs more on offer • cooking facilities not easy to use (induction hobs) • needs more cutlery, plates etc • communal sofas need replacing as they're a bit run down • WIFI patchy

This ”hotel” is situated above a cafe with the same name, but the cafe was closed when we arrived. The keybox didn't work either, so we had to call the landlady to get in. She arrived promptly, and we got our keys. Then we tried to find somewhere to eat, which wasn't easy. The place next door did not a liquor license, so our hopes of having a cold beer vanished (when we stopped by the same place a few hours he didn't have food either. All sold out he said, with a shrug). Two other places on the main street were also closed, one of them for good by the look of it. We did however find a pizza joint that served both beer and pizza, and ended up spending the better part of the evening there. Not a very fancy place, but with no options in sight it had to make do. But we will not return to Guillaumes. It's half as big as an American cemetery, and twice as dead, as they say.

Ich war in Moustiers Sainte-Marie und am See Sainte-Croix, einer der schönsten Städte Südfrankreichs.Die Ferienzeit war so voll, dass ich keine Wohnung finden konnte, also musste ich nach Ibis, 30 Kilometer ein Weg. Ich hatte keine Hoffnung für Ibis, und es reichte, um eine Wohnung zu haben, aber die realen Bedingungen sind immer noch sehr enttäuschend. Ich habe zwei Zimmer gebucht, ein Zimmer hatte überhaupt keine Handtücher. Die Klimaanlage im Zimmer ist laut und macht die Leute nicht schlafen können. Am nächsten Tag früh aufgewacht, verlegen geflohen und kein zweites Mal mehr leben.

The restaurant at Auberge Quintessence was a wonderful experience. The cuisine is modern, interesting and very skillfully crafted. Wine selection well curated and pairings make sense. Service is friendly, chairs comfortable, tables quite large with ample space between them. The view is astonishing. Usually, I would not write more on Tripadvisor than the above text, since I am a professional restaurant critic and spare my energy for the newspaper I am employed by. In that paper I have written more than 2.000 newspaper pages about good restaurants during the last 21 years, so I am not easily impressed. But Quintessence impresses me, and I wish to support the place, as I feel they are showing a new way to go, in these trying times where restaurant and kitchen staff is so hard to find. I have been travelling in France frequently for almost 30 years and watched how the gastronomic level seems to have declined. Or maybe it is just that I have gotten more demanding. To try and assess the situation and compare the old stars the the present time, I recently dined at 3 Michelin star Precatalan and Ledoyen, 1-star Laserre, Tour d’Argent, Maxims, Chez l’Ami Louis, La Coupole and Bofinger. Several of these I have visited more than once. This is what I compare Quintessence against, and of course Quintessence’s gastronomy cannot match Precatalan or Ledoyen, nor can the ambiance of the mentioned historic places be challenged by the very modest dining room of Quintessence (apart from the view which challenges Tour d’Argent..). But nevertheless, I find the precision (not the produce, this is no place for caviar etc.) in cooking quite close to these two famous restaurants, and that is impressive since Quintessence is such a small setup. The chef is also owner, and in the kitchen he has only one cook to help him. The chef’s wife is also the Maitre d’ and waiter, and when I finished the meal and went to visit the kitchen to thank the chef, I found him and the wife busy cleaning the dishes helped by their daughter of 8-10 years! Such devotion is astonishing, and this is my point: One thing is to operate a famous restaurant with lots of staff and charging high prices. Another is for a husband- and wife team to operate an auberge at a distant mountain top delivering very fine and interesting cuisine with both attentive and friendly service. Of course, they need to be practical so there is no á la carte just one menu, and everybody sit down to eat at 19.30. But if you are happy with that, I will warmly recommend the Auberge Quintessence. The settings are wonderful high in the mountains, and you will especially appreciate it if you are a biker, since there was an almost constant traffic of motorbikes on the roads. I am no longer a biker, and although I used to love the sound of my big motorbike, I now find it very annoying, especially on a mountain top. But I look forward to a visit in the wintertime, hoping there wont be a lot of snow scooters instead.
