The Chateau is a fantastic property with amazing works of art around the grounds and property. It is quiet. All aspects of the hotel were immaculately maintained and very clean. The food in the restaurants was excellent and we enjoyed all the meals that we had there.
What a dream property. We went with our 6-month old baby and had the best time. Our suite was gorgeous with its own terrace and private vineyard. They set up a beautiful baby cot with cute little gifts for our baby included. The Art around the property is incredibly impressive, and every inch of the property is divine. I can’t wait to go back. This is a must stay.
This resort was a one of a kind experience. The natural beauty, artwork, cuisine and service were unmatched. We ate at La Source and spent a relaxing day by the pool. The room was phenomenal with a spectacular view of the garden. We had a tour of the winery after a delicious tasting of their homemade wines. I would recommend anyone to stay here for a relaxing first class getaway.
I recently stayed at Chateau de La Gaude with my Mum and my 1 year old daughter in on annual mother- daughter trip. I want to extend a truly heartfelt appreciation to the entire team for their kindness, courtesy, thoughtfulness and promptness to attend to all that we needed during our stay. I want to particularly express gratitude to the Le Art team for allowing me to bring my daughter to dinner one evening (while she slept in her comfy stroller most of the dinner, thankfully), but she did wake up and started to cry and I excused myself to take her for a walk to be respectful of the other guests. However, the team extended such graciousness and patience beyond what I would even expect and I hope I did not negatively affect the reviews your other guests may give for this particular evening. Thank you for making our stay here so memorable.
It was such a beautiful 3 Nights in the suite number 6. Everything was perfect and we’ve enjoyed the pool!

Lovely property in great location, only 10 mins from the bustling tow of Aix-de-Provence.
Staff were great. Cocktails and restaurants were very high standard.
My wife and I stayed here for three nights. The chateau is located in a beautiful and isolated area. You can spend your time just walking and enjoying the garden and winery. The room itself was lovely and large with a great view of the gardens, Note that it is a historic building with no elevators. We got our stair steps in as we were on the third (American count) floor. We had just stayed in Hotel St. Remy which was a small boutique hotel. The service here felt a bit impersonal. The other inconvenience was that it is a drive from Aix-en-Provence where we wanted to spend more of our time. Driving to and finding parking in Aix was a chore. If your goal is to just enjoy the chateau and relax then this is a great choice. If you plan to spend more time in Aix then you are probably better off staying there.
Chateau de la Gaude is a stunning property, with excellent on site dining experiences, beautifully appointed, modern rooms, and a spectacular garden. What keeps this hotel from being a five star experience for me, was the rather lackluster staff. No one was rude, just moderately not helpful.
great staff and professional ... great room, new and clean

The hotel is beautiful and the staff was very attentive to our needs.
Our only complaint was the garden watering system noise in the morning.

Beautiful new hotel with really friendly staff. Very cozy. Food was also great and the venue incredibly beautiful. Art work is a bit out there though. :/ happy I didn’t take the kids and had to explain it to them.
One of the most beautiful hotels in Provence if not in France. Great location, beautiful rooms, friendly staff, great restaurants and cellars, everything is thought through to make your stay unforgettable!
This is a beautiful property - we just stayed one night passing though but it was quite memorable. We dined at the gastronomique restaurant and it was a wonderful experience. The staff was very helpful and kind and gave us a lovely tour of the property.
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!
