Hotel Relais du Postillon

This is a lovely hotel, particularly for a short winter break! Just 16 rooms which is perfect. It is in a fabulous location in the old town of Antibes with shops, bars, restaurants, the Picasso Museum and the marina within easy walking distance. Our room overlooked the main square and I would strongly recommend staying in one of the front rooms for the view. It was excellent value for money. There was a very comfortable and cosy lounge/bar which served meals and refreshments throughout the day. An excellent choice of hotel at this time of year and it was obviously very popular with the locals. All the staff were helpful, friendly and welcoming. I can't fault it, we will definitely return, possibly next December so that we can visit the Christmas market and see the lights. We were just a bit too early this time.

I loved this hotel! There were mixed reviews and I booked anyway as the location is excellent for exploring Antibes and surrounding areas being close with to bus stops and restaurants nearby. I found the rooms to be quiet and well appointed with very comfortable beds and linens The elevator did not bother me at all and I am assuming the people that gave poor reviews based on the elevator are extremely light sleepers. Also, the staff is very nice and helpful. Once again the poor reviews must be from grumpy people. I loved my stay and cannot wait to return!

This is a lovely 600-year-old old building and surprisingly quiet considering it's on a public square (and we were there on Saturday night). Breakfast was fine and it looked as if the restaurant/open air eating and drinking were also good. We had to book at short notice and were told that we'd need to stay in a small double room for one night but would then be moved to a larger room with twin beds... This sadly seems to have been untrue. We did manage to get a room with a spare sofa-bed on the second night, but only after making a fuss. So that was sad. I must commend the showers in both rooms , the only hotel showers I've every used that didn't leak onto the floor! Old-fashioned but great. Other things, not so good. The lift for instance has to be reached by several stairs on each floor, so it's not really accessible and it was hard to heave the luggage in. This is probably understandable in such a historic building but not ideal for the older guest... If you are fit, this is a really nice central but quiet place just minutes from the bus and train stations in one direction and the old town squares and Provencal market in the other. Not far either from the old port and the town beach underneath the old ramparts... But for someone with a slight back and knee injury like me it wasn't ideal.
