Beautiful setting
Amazing setting, and warm welcome from staff. Room very large and extremely comfortable. Very marked rug round bed, not sure why they hadn’t cleaned it as looked awful. Pool area is great with comfortable beds. Food at pool wasn’t great had a club sandwich €40 and they ran out of included French fries and sandwich was awful. Bread terrible and whole thing made us unwell so couldn’t eat in the evening. Restaurants are very specialist and not all open every evening. No access to the formal gardens which I couldn’t understand? So if you think you will have a true ‘chateau experience’ then this is not quite the case. But the area is very beautiful and property very comfortable. Wine tasting was very informative and good experience so make sure you take up the free offer.

wow, this is one of the most beautiful properties and settings we have been too. The grounds are impeccable, and our room was stunning, enormous and well decorated with modern furniture mixed with french chateau like moldings and Louis Vuitton vintage luggage for a very high vibe. The bathroom was very high tech and high end as well. We were in suite 1, probably the best view and room in the entire hotel, unless there is another suite above us. The restaurants were all unique and offered great ambiance and choices as well, and all food we had was delicious. Our only complaint would be the service at the restaurants is lacking in timing, cleaning up used tables, and attentiveness.The level of service did not match the otherwise 6 star hotel.

The property itself is exquisite and well maintained. Gregoire and the staff were all excellent and very accommodating and the room had all the amenities we were looking for. We stayed in the chateau itself and the one complaint we had was that the main door to the chateau is very large and makes quite a bit of noise that reverberates throughout the building when people don’t guide it closed (which is most of the time). In addition, the gastronomic restaurant is also in the same building and when they are cleaning up after dinner service this also can be heard throughout the building up until about midnight. Otherwise, the chateau is quite central and easy to get to other vineyards (Chateau La Coste is excellent), Aix en Provence, Cassis (highly recommended). Enjoy!

We travelled all through south of France and Chateau de la Gaude was one of the most beautiful places we stayed at. The rooms are beautiful and clean with high ceilings and newly renovated bathrooms. The grounds and gardens offer many secluded spots to walk to and sit there with a book. Our room window opened to a beautiful view of the manicured garden and fountains. the Michelin star restaurant on the terrace facing the French gardens is an amazing addition to the chateau. We also enjoyed the heated pool and the wine tasting offered at the chateau ( they produce 6 different wines at the estate) Overall we highly recommend this hotel.

This is a relatively new property in Aix with immaculate grounds and a limited set of rooms. The grounds feature some cutting edge modern art. The food at the restaurants was outstanding. The only negative was that our check-in which was assured for 3 pm was delayed and did not occur till 3.45 pm. They were understaffed on the day of our arrival. It takes about 15 mins by Uber to the center of Aix and maybe 25 mins to get to its more famous neighbor Chateau La Coste....
