Best Saint-Leu Hotels

We stayed at this hotel for 8 nights on holiday. The hotel is listed as a 3-star hotel, but many facilities (safe, fridge, magnifying mirror, Nespresso machine, two pools, two restaurants, etc.) are more characteristic of 4-star hotels. The same is true for breakfast, which was generous and good. The hotel is located at the outskirts of St. Leu, on a hill that is overlooking a very nice view of the sea, whales included. We had a car and therefore could travel easily, recommended at this location. Ample parking, also near our room which was relatively far from the reception. A lovely garden and pleasant common areas. Our room (Guétali) was large and comfortable, and housekeeping was good. Good beds. The bathroom was large, though it suffered from a shallow sink in which the tap was located too much to the back, something that caused constant water spillage. Service was excellent everywhere throughout our stay, with special thanks to the reception and restaurant staff. We tried to drive to St. Leu for dinner, but a traffic jam and total lack of parking led us to abandon this idea after one try. We consequently ate at the hotel’s Kotémer restaurant (see separate review). A concert of Creole music and dance on one of the evenings was very enjoyable. The most evident weakness of this hotel is the (lack of) wi-fi. While this worked reasonably well at the reception and the restaurants, we had zero reception at our room, on laptop, tablet, and phones. I use a laptop for both work and entertainment, and therefore had to sit at the reception whenever I needed the internet. The phones could be used at the room using mobile data, but this consumed a considerable amount of our monthly allocation. Overall, a very positive experience if one accepts the internet limitation, recommended while staying on Reunion Island.

I arrived at the airport & realized the closest place to buy a sim card was near the Carrefour in town (since neither my Hong Kong sim nor my 2 wifi eggs worked here), being the day before Christmas eve the traffic was crazy & even trying to find parking was complete madness, by the time I got to the hotel it was getting dark and being able to grab a nice meal (had the 9 course seafood tasting menu with wine pairing) and then roll off to bed felt so indulgent. So here is the conundrum, you visit Reunion to ogle the prehistoric landscapes and lush foliage, hike, take helicopter tours of the jurassic mountains, but once at the Margouillat, you just don’t want to leave. For those that want adventures and luxury.... this place is the place to be. Being in or near the water is what it’s all about, the pool was never crowded, the view of the incredible coastline stunning all times of the day. After each meal, it was nice knowing it was literally just one flight of steps back to the room, or just pass out under the frangipani tree. It was an impeccable stay except for dinner my third and last night (12/25) when they were obviously understaffed, I sat down at 730 pm, waited until 8 pm before they took my order, @ 830 pm my amuse bouche arrived, @ 9 pm since my appetizer still did not made its appearance, I decided to leave, especially since guests that arrived after me were served their main course already & I had an early flight to catch. Otherwise, would have rated this a 5.

Really amazing hotel located right across from Saline les Bains. The hotel staff were all super friendly and helpful even we struggled to communicate freely due to our lack of French fluency but some staffs spoke good enough English so it was absolutely not an issue! The rooms were super spacious and comfortable with a nice sit out (we had the garden facing room). Quality of sleep was absolutely amazing due to the very good sound proofing and excellent mattress/pillow. No complaints at all!! The only drawback, if at all, was the lack of eating options within the hotel. However, there’s 3-4 excellent restaurants along the beach and within a 3-4 minute walk. Really highly recommended hotel to stay if you’re visiting Reunion and want to just recharge your batteries!!

I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel. Directly on its own (private) beach with a fantastic view. I have a room with a nice view of the pool. Rooms are ok with very comfortable bed. This room was a bit dated but was very clean and didn't bother me at all. Very tasty and extensive breakfast that is always served outside. You can eat a la carte for lunch and dinner. The free beach towel service (only pay a deposit) is also very handy. You can always get a new clean towel. You can relax at the beautiful swimming pool or on the beach. Both locations are equipped with sunbeds and seats Last day I was able to leave my suitcase in a secure zone and enjoy the hotel all day long and take a nice shower before I left for the airport. This hotel is definitely recommended for family and business travel.

The hotel is a very nice hotel with a very nice hotel and a very nice hotel with a very nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a nice hotel with a Smal room is not worthy of a 3 *... hotel almost empty a overclass could have been made short ....the location LOIN of everything, near salted etang so mosquito +++++sandy beach black even the rooms are not present. ...bathroom to flee

A good hotel on Reunion Island. Hidden in the encirclement of the flower sea and the towering tree, the white French architecture is elegant and romantic. At check-in, there will be a staff member on duty to take us to the room. Many white two-story buildings are divided into several groups, each with a terrace. Level table and chair appliances, high bed cushions. The bathroom and the washroom are divided into two rooms; the toothbrush and toothpaste need to be provided. In addition, a large bottle of mineral water and a small can of coffee powder can be sent daily for free. You can use the French jug in the room to press out two cups of coffee and drink it on the balcony. In terms of facilities, the hotel is located in the lagoon for swimming and snorkeling. The hotel will do several activities a week, cocktail parties, open-air movies and the like. In short, it is very comfortable. It’s not boring to soak the hotel without going out. recommend.
