La Colombe d'Or Hotel and Restaurant

Our family made a plan for this restaurant a half year ago from USA. So I made a reservation more than a month ago to visit this restaurant on Christmas. Even though we put a lot of effort to visit here (the restaurant knew about us), they put us at the corner where no paintings exist. We were trying to see the paintings but the people in the hall were not that friendly. We asked how to see the paintings, they said we should do before or after the meal but we didn’t expect the worst location of our table. We can see very few from a distance (in the picture, but it is not the main hall even, our table was outside of the outside location where they prepare dishes for people). I want to show great painting to my kids but they only saw an unfairness. If you plan to visit there from a distance especially from East, they are not that kind, I really don’t recommend this place if you were not French or European. You will experience something horrible. The worst part is the server push for a tip. It was quite uncomfortable with it. He didn’t help us to enjoy the paintings at all but asked tip. The food price was unreasonable, 136 euro. I really didn’t even want to pay 1 euro. Our Christmas was messed up with this restaurant. Thank you for that.

My partner and I stayed here for one night which just happened to be the last before the Fall shut down. Even with the rush to clear out the next day the staff treated us very professionally and with an impressive level of personal care. The rooms and furniture and art work are absolutely world class. If you get a chance to stay here, enjoy contemporary art first class service and an amazing meal, take it!

Another wonderful, and memorable meal at La Colombe d'Or. Sublime food, wonderful champagne, top notch service and an incredible atmosphere. The restaurant manager is a gentleman and handled a difficult couple with distinction. The couple ordered a drink each and a single plate of snails as an appetizer to share, but refused to order any more food or main courses. This is one of the finest restaurants in the South of France, it's not a wine bar or canapés type establishment - it's a top French restaurant and securing a reservation is not an easy feat. The manager politely, and understandably explained that the couple would have to order more than a single plate of snails - to which the couple appeared shocked, refused, and then made the decision to leave - only to complain to other tables on the way out that they had been kicked out of the restaurant - they had not been. If you want a sophisticated, and wonderful three course French meal, I thoroughly recommend this restaurant. If you want a burger, or a snack, I recommend the bar across the road.

It's an entire experience! The food is delicious, the wine equally so, the servers are professional and kind, the paintings inside along with the art on the terrace and poolside are magnificent, oh, and it's located in the most charming french village. Definitely one of our favorite places. Don't miss the Fondation Maeght nearby.

We had the most exquisite meal here. The hotel is stunning—beautiful location just at the bottom of the old town. The tables were dotted outside in a pristine garden, surrounded by art and gorgeous trees. The staff were all extremely welcoming (despite what we’d read online) and the food, wine and ambience was divine. Couldn’t recommend enough. Thank you for making my Dad’s birthday celebration so special.

Fantastic experience! ||Have tried to get a table there on our last few visits to the South of France and finally got one for dinner a couple of weeks back. ||It lived up to all the hype, beautiful setting, a wonderful, friendly waiter served us and the food was divine! ||Loved every minute of it.

If you know you know, and if you get it, you get it and if you don’t you end up writing an idiotic review like the one star review that was written earlier guaranteed of course to be an American.

Friends go every year and they rave about it so we had to try it, if only for the art! |We had a fabulous evening. Staff were friendly and the service was excellent. Loved the art we were able to see in the bar and around the swimming pool. Wonderful atmosphere.|Our starters of Crevettes was delicious, my partner had the Poussin which he enjoyed, I had the cod which was poached in milk, accompanied by boiled potatoes, carrots and courgettes. It seemed more like something you'd serve to an invalid but hey ho I was very hungry and ate it all and my partner generously shared his dauphinois which improved it no end! We probably ate better and less expensively elsewhere in the walled city but for an experience this place is unequalled.
