We took a room with sea view. The room was ok for a three star,but no hanging shower. You have to hold the shower head which was kind of a bummer. We didnt take breakfast,but the room was still pricey. The male evening/afternoon staff were very friendly and helpful.. we were happy, but maybe could have gotten a better hotel... More

We stayed at the Excelsior for 4 nights in early May. The hotel details state that bedrooms are air conditioned and had this not been the case we would not have booked here. However despite temperatures in the mid to high 20s throughout our stay we were informed by Reception that the aircon would not be available until late May/June.... More

Dear Sir, In early Spring and late Fall, the daily temperature in our region can vary significantly due to the changeable Mediterranean climate. Therefore at times it is difficult to predict when to operate our central air-conditioning system. Regrettably you had an unfortunate experience during your stay but we would like to comment that one of the issues you raised... More

We had lunch on the Excelsior terrace last November and suddenly it hit us. We live in Fayence and we have been going to the Excelsior for twelve years but I haven't written a review. Why? Age, laziness, are factors but probably it is because we have become so accustomed to great meals and wonderful service that routine, happy routine,... More

Firstly, the location really is superb, right on the sea front with a gorgeous sun terrace where you can watch the world go by. The building in itself is charming and the rooms fairly recently furnished to a good standard. Ours had a great sea view. Breakfast simply done, but what can beat freshly baked croissant in the morning whilst... More

We love it here, at this hotel and in Saint Raphael but that's because it is not as touristy as surrounding St Tropez and Cannes. And also because we got engaged here on the carousel just on the beach in front of the hotel, so its special for us. The hotel provides everything you need and is very well located.... More

The Excelsior is a charming old-fashioned hotel, in a charming old-fashioned resort. The reception is cramped, the corridors rather grim... but book a Premium room with direct view over the sea and you will have a wonderful sense of this gentle, relaxed resort. Staff are friendly and helpful and breakfast on the terrace is simple but sufficient. Our room had... More

The hotel it's self isn't bad but not for this money. Room are small with rusted handrails behind the window and what left us more shocked were the plastic cups which we had to use to drink champagne on the first night of our stay.

The mattresses in this hotel are shot and the management knows it. Each morning you see the maids walking around with boards from room to room, trying to ameliorate guests who complain. The boards are of no use -- the mattresses are simply unusable. So while the hotel had a recent "renovation", they didn't seem to be willing to invest... More
