At the reception the classic room was said to cost 89 Euro plus 10 Euro for parking, but in the morning they had put 10 Euro more on the bill. They agreed to original offer. Bed was hard and the room very small. Dust in many places. WiFi 9 Euro for 24 hours.

My wife and I just spent a night at the Couvent Royal. It was a great experience. We had a room looking over the cloister. Smallish, but the rooms are converted monks' cells! This is inside a monastery. The cloister is outside the bar and restaurant. Superbly restored. The inside bar and restaurant are in the chapter house with original... More

I was a little surprised to read the latest comments on this hotel. We also live in the South of France and have visited this hotel 3 times these past few years. I absolutely love this magical place, which has been restored in a way that respects its past history. Service and dinner at the "Chapitre restaurant were very good... More

We have lived in the Var for 20 years and hence know many of the local restaurants. For ambience, le Couvent Royal scores well - for food and value it deserves a star for "worst in the Var".

He liked it so much that we went back after he picked me up at the airport in Nice. The Hotel is gorgeous, peaceful, spotless. We... More

The hotel is not good for the following reasons: - The rooms are very small - Every time you take a shower you need to mop the floor - The hotel warms up quite quick and because it omits an AC (ask for a fan!) we had several swampy nights - Just before we went to bed on the last... More

The reception was warm and all special requests, f.ex. an extra bed, were fulfilled. The room was very basic and clean. The restaurant is located in an old chapter house, the service was a bit of a disappointment but the food was good.

I stayed in this hotel very recently. It was good value and close to where I wanted to be. After reading reviews here, I decided to go for a superior room. It was small but confortable enough. The bathroom is also small but has everything you need. The building is lovely but looks a bit run down in certain areas... More

Not bad. Great food. Open shower soaked the floor though. With all the stone wifi is poor. 13th centuary Gothic architecture is to die for.
