The most amazing hotel!! Very attentive staff, beautiful property, and amazing food. The attentive to detail at this resort is perfection and we had the most memorable stay. It’s a smaller, more intimate property about a mile from St. Tropez port. It’s walking distance to the port and the beach, but they offer a free hotel shuttle service as well. The rooms are gorgeous and the whole hotel feels like you’re in a dream. Will definitely be back.

“If you can stay here, DO IT!”

From the moment we stepped thru the door of Hôtel Lou Pinet, we knew we’d arrived in Holiday Heaven!

From the moment we stepped thru the door of Hôtel Lou Pinet, we knew we’d arrived in Holiday Heaven! After a stressful workweek in Cannes, four of us women (40s-50s) decided to spend a weekend in St. Tropez and we could not have selected a more perfect location than Lou Pinet as we were looking for some serenity yet easy access to town center, both offered at the property. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, especially the concierge desk. A special shout out to Kelvin (or Calvin—our bad in not getting exact spelling) as he was amazing (and patient) at n helping us plan our days/evenings. His recommendation of renting their hotel’s little electric jeep vehicle was such a great one as we had a ball driving it thru town to Bagatelle Beach and to harbor and thru town. The hotel’s amenities are lovely (the complimentary totes bags really came in handy) and we loved the arrival and nightly turn-down service goodies, different each night. We opted to include bfast in our rate and it was well worth it as their offerings were delicious. The pool was kept well heated which was nice since it was a bit cool for May. One little suggestion would be to offer sunscreen in the nearby bathrooms. Many resorts at this level do so would have been a nice little thing. The other poolside and lunch offerings were terrific. The Beefbar dinner was very good. Not the best but nice. Recommend for dinner trying out one of the many wonderful recommendations the hotel offered instead. After just 24 hours into our 2 night trip, we loved the property so much we added a third night, deciding to eat the cost of the hotel we had booked in Nice. Yes, the hotel was that amazing for us. For those concerned about not being close to town, the tranquility was worth staying a little outside of city center and the hotel shuttle was very fast. And if you really wanted, you could make the walk into town, only about 20 mins walk. In a nutshell, for those wanting a relaxing, gorgeous weekend in St. Tropez with a little bit of party thrown in, Hôtel Lou Pinet is the perfect place.

“Best Stay Of All Time”

This review is so long overdue but worth writing regardless! The concierge team at Lou Pinet is some of the best individuals I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I was planning a proposal to my now wife and was asking so many questions on where I should propose, lunch reservations, dinner reservations, cars, etc. You name it, I asked it and they were so patient and so kind with every single request I had. There were multiple changes and they handled everything with such grace and ease. The hotel property is out of a movie and the staff all around is just such an incredible vibe to be around. They make you feel so welcomed and the grounds make you feel like you belong there. This review is so long overdue, I proposed to in 2021 but if they were that amazing back then, I could only imagine how much better they are now! If Amélie & Thomas are still there you are loved! - Cole Mier

“Average - better hotels in St Tropez would not stay again.”

Bang on average experience, wouldn’t choose to stay here again: 1.

Bang on average experience, wouldn’t choose to stay here again: 1. On the good side, the hotel is pretty (particularly the pool area), the food is very nice (beef bar was very good) and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Definitely worth going to beef bar and over looking the pool but don’t stay at the hotel 2. On the bad side the design of the rooms mostly over looking the pool is sub-optimal as you don’t get privacy. We had a particularly annoying room which was right on the pool (if you stay I would request not to have this room.) it meant that whenever you are in the room you need to shut the curtains and that just meant it was felt dark and dingey and wasn’t a particularly nice experience 3. It didn’t feel like a luxury experience - eg you know when they charge you extra for avocado with your breakfast they’re looking for the extra margin which just takes away from the luxury service experience. This is fine for a Marriot type hotel but when you’re spending £1000+ a night it’s disappointing. Basically anything they can charge you extra for, they will (parking etc) 4. Gym is very very bad - surprised it could get a 5 star rating with such a poor gym. I have a better set up at home. 5. It’s also loud - you can hear the music from Beef bar in the rooms which is annoying if you want to sleep earlier or have children For same price point stay at Pan Dei Palais - it’s a much better hotel all around and the experience and service is incomparable. If you want to be outside of the town stay at Villa Marie in Ramatuelle and just get a higher level room than the entry level.
