This wonderful hotel does not require a lengthy review. I can best sum it up as being sheer excellence in every department from moment of arrival. Some years ago, my family stayed at one of the other supposedly top hotels only a short drive away where the menu prices both in main restaurant and outside terrace exceeded those at Grand Hotel du Cap and they had a very rude pool attendant with a dreadful attitude who upset a number of guests. Ww have never returned as it offered bad value. I would give that hotel which is a supposed competitor of Hotel Du Cap, three stars. By way of contrast, the all-round excellence of Hotel Du Cap Is five stars plus. Our suite was gorgeous, Both the main restaurant dinner and service by the pool was a delight to experience especially out on the terrace in the evening with wonderful entertainment and superb cuisine along with the most enjoyable atmosphere. This was our first ever stay and I would not wish to be anywhere else in the area than at this wonderful property. I am in little doubt that this really is the very best hotel in the South of France and that is saying something, as generally Cote d’Azur standards are high. I have been staying at hotels in the area since 1976. We can’t wait to return and we were so impressed that we are looking at booking a family celebration weekend at the hotel next year. Friends had recommended that we book a stay and our experience exceeded all expectations, which were extremely high from the outset due to the room rates. This hotel needed to be great to justify their rates and in fact it was better than great! The level of service really is so exceptional that the rates actually offer good value. This is not an average top luxury hotel, it is extraordinary and brilliantly managed. What makes it particularly special is that the entire estate was formally a single residence and this is therefore not a large, grand hotel, it is in fact a boutique hotel and yet it is staffed as if it was a grand hotel three times the size. We particularly loved the old lift and the immaculate vernacular down to the pool. We could not resist purchasing the Hotel du Cap soap bag from the spa which has a beautiful image of the hotel, a perfect souvenir. The art on display throughout the hotel and in the suites is exceptionally well curated. The choice of fine wines has to be seen, see photos I am posting some photos taken from our suite and around the hotel during our visit. This is a hotel that must not be missed.
