We are traveling around Aix-en- Provence and Luberon area for a week and staying various 5 star hotels mostly members of Relais Cheatau chain. Some of them are beyond our expectaions but Fonscolombe was not in that category although it has a great potential. Chateau Fonscolombe spans a huge area so they may have beautiful well kept gardens which means not trimmed but well kept ( each time we mentioned the hotel staff about our concerns they make explanations based on environmental issues. ) For example the pool area and the pool was not taking good care literally there was nobody to clean the pool and the pool area.. On the other hand the hotel rooms are very clean. The decorations of the room is ok but not impressive. Also the whole Chateau needs a better decoration. There are two or may be three restaurants in the hotel. One is gastronomic which we didn’t prefer to eat but the other one was quiet good. The breakfast they served was good. Overall the hotel has huge potential but need to elevate their operations especially the outdoor facilities.

The country is the country.. even in France
I did love the Chateau- although my first room was nothing like the picture. I felt as though I was put in the maides quarters, which was dark sad and drabby. For the price I was disappointed and asked for the room in the picture- but had to get to an appointment. When I returned- the room was even worse. I ended up having to pay additional for the room I wanted. I wasn’t happy about that- but I didn’t come to this place to stay in a dungeon. The staff was so friendly almost to a fault. It was lovely once I got the room I wanted - it was the 3rd try and big effort but the property was beautiful.

The chateau is absolutely exquisite, made all the more so by the wonderful and attentive staff. The venue is like something out of a dream; beautiful rooms, fantastic restaurant, grounds to wander on and view the vineyards (and two donkeys). All the staff are friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. The divine Coralie Gourjaud (Front Office Manager) made our stay truly perfect. Special mention to Lucas Bourgville (wonderful concierge service) and the charming sprite Hilda in the dining room.

Beautiful stay with a warm and accommodating staff (Coralie was great!) and wonderful spa offerings (Nadine at the spa is amazing!). Even though my original booking had to be modified due to a private event, the staff helped with adjusting the booking. Loved how they promote wellness culture - I would definitely stay here again!

What a lovely place Feels as if you are in a push 17th century facility The chateau is kept so beautiful all the details are authentic yet it is up to date with technology Wi-Fi room amenities spa and pool And above all this the stuff is so friendly (bravo s charlotte). I have to admit the one downside is it is a distanced place not easy to find in darkness but this will not prevent us from coming again

The castle is beautiful but we were disappointed with the stay. The service was not up to what we were expecting for the price. The grounds are very pretty although not close to much. The restaurant is very expensive. We did not find the bed to be comfortable, and the ac did not seem to be working well.

We visited this hotel during the quiet season and were very impressed with the facility. The hotel is an old Chateau on a huge and gorgeous property in the countryside. Needless to say the area is extremely quiet and peaceful. We were upgraded to a larger room due to it being a slow season. The staff were very professional and our room was superb. Even though the location is a little out of the way I would recommend this very much for a relaxing peaceful get away. They have also a fine dining restaurant in the hotel serving breakfast, lunch and dinner.

It’s a typical castle from the south of France in Provence. It’s quiet and elegant. We loved our room. It was spacious and comfortable with air conditioning which was important because of the heat wave we experienced during our stay. Fonscolombe location is ideal. it’s so close to Aix and the county of luberon where we visited many beautiful villages.

The property is beyond gorgeous, so relaxing and well appointed. The staff who for the most part are helpful and very pleasant seem to require more expert training in service, concierge assistance and bringing a cup of coffee in a timely way as asked. Hoping for these improvements I would defyinitly recommend to others and return.

The property was absolutely stunning! The Chateau itself was beautifully decorated (the first floor is original with its 18th-century design) and the rooms have been elegantly modernized for a comfortable stay. It is rich with history and you can truly feel like you can unwind and pamper yourself with the services and amenities they offer. We highly recommend you staying here if you like a bit of a city-escape an authentic Provencal experience!

I have just returned from a 14 day stay here and I can not praise the staff and property enough. From the moment I arrived the reception staff made me feel welcome and did everything they could over the course of my stay to meet any needs I had - from extra coat hangers to tour reservations. The setting of the chateau on park like grounds allows you to relax and let stress just roll off you. I wandered many times along the paths that crossed through the vineyard adjacent to the side of the chateau. There is a pool but the weather didn't cooperate so I can't say much about that. Great staff, good food and park like grounds make this the perfect stress free spot.

Lovely and charming
Fonscolombe was lovely, and we wish we could have stayed much longer than three nights. The grounds are beautiful, the staff was gracious, the house wine is tasty, and the restaurant was great. 2 recommendations: If you like a shower, and not just a tub, you should request that. Our room only had a tub with a handheld shower that sprayed everywhere. We ended up using the shower at the pool. Additionally, if you are tall, you should let them know. The closet where our toilet was located would not be big enough for a tall person to sit down comfortably, which was very strange in a bathroom large enough to park a car in.

Hotel staff are helpful and friendly. Had a wonderful dinner at the hote restaurant. Food and wine were excellent. ( at reasonable price too!) Room is nicely furnished. one minor point- it would be nicer if the hotel could turn on the insect repellent before guests arrive.

Beautiful Chateau
If you have a car it is worth the extra kilometers to stay in this exquisite Chateau. Renovations continued during our stay so the restoration is not yet complete, but I can tell you that when it is it will be in high demand due to its spectacular grounds. Quite the treat to stay out in the countryside in such a magnificent property.

아름답지만, 개선이 필요한 호텔 숙박기간 내내 방에서는 나방이 날아다니고, 샤워기는 수온이 들쭉날쭉 온도가 계속 변했으며, 하수구 물은 빠지지 않음. 외부의 아름다움에 비해 시설 정비가 못따라가는 느낌
