Hôtel did not provide room that I paid for. They gave me an accessible room without telling us that that is all that was available. Hotel staff and assistant manager unwilling to provide alternative room despite one being available at 6pm on day of check in. They wanted us to pay the difference between the deluxe room and deluxe room with balcony despite this being a one night stay. It was a failure of hotel management to properly recover from the failure to provide the room I paid for.

Our stay was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived and parked, we felt relaxed and stress-free. There are no minuses at Le Couvent des Minimes, only plusses. The surroundings are beautiful, and entering the convent is simply a "wow" experience. The lovely scent and the warm welcome from the staff set the tone for a perfect stay. Everything was taken care of from the moment we stepped in. We arrived before our room was available, so we were introduced to the surroundings and got to listen to the history of the couvent. Then, we were told that we could enjoy the 2500 m² spa until the room is ready. The room is beautifully decorated with its calming the colors, furniture, refreshing drinks, and L'Occitane products. :) The bed was super comfortable, be sure to have a restful night's sleep. The breakfast was just delicious, offering a wide variety of high-quality options that catered to every taste. The dining experience at the Pamparigouste restaurant was exceptional. The cuisine is exquisite, with a menu that showcased both local flavors and gourmet dishes. The spa treatments were a highlight of our stay. One of the great aspects of our stay was the noon check-out time, allowing us to enjoy our morning without rushing. If you wish, you can still enjoy the spa, have a good swim, or just get some sun and relax.

everyone leaves, but I first seated must wait
The staff at the reception were really friendly and helpful, which was impressive. The facilities are beautiful and the rooms are clean. But I had the worst experience at the restaurant. I visited alone on 3/30 to plan a group meal, and the male staff member in charge of my table was embarrassing and rude, which made the dinner I had high expectations so sad. First, I tried to discuss the wine to accompany the meal, but the staff stopped me and said they would call the wine server. But after a while, he came back with white wine that had already been poured into a glass. “The wine manager said this would suit me well.” Will your next red wine be poured right before your eyes? No, once again he bring poured wine glass. I didn't want to ruin the mood, so I just took it, but it didn't go well with the food and the wine had a dirty finish, but I endured it. The main course was the chef's special of the day, lamb, and the lamb I ordered rare was cold! The tin pot containing the food wasn't warm to the touch, but the Potato that came with it were warm. The waiting time between meals was so long and I tried to understand. But The food came out just as I was about to finish drinking the white wine, and after waiting for a long time to finish the food, it was cleaned up, and after. a long wait, the chef's special was cold. The red wine to accompany this does not arrive until more than 1/3 of the lamb is eaten. Just two main dishes and it took 2.5 hours In a 5 star hotel.
