Best Hotels near Église Sainte-Marie-Madeleine de Lincel, Saint-Michel-l＇Observatoire

Had a wonderful overnight stay on our way to the Gorges du Verdon. The bedroom was delightful, quiet, very good bedding with a fantastic bathroom which was spotless. Hotel had a wonderful pool which we did not have time to use and the surroundings were gorgeous. Breakfast brought to our bedroom which was a big plus and everyone at reception was so friendly and made us feel so welcome. Would highly recommend and thank you for having us.

I visited this hotel as a guide for a group of almost 30 people in October 2021. The hotel itself is quite acceptable, although I imagine a slightly different standard under the 3-star rating. The service was also quite good. Unfortunately, only until the hotel owner got involved. In my more than 20 years career as a guide, I have never seen such an unpleasant, reluctant and annoying person as this lady. All I asked for was a few bottles of wine, which of course my group wanted to buy. Instead, we learned that we were drunkers who would only make noise and mess all over the hotel and that she wouldn't sell us a glass. And that was when the whole group was still on the road, she knew nothing about them and never seen them before. However automatically said things about my clients that I would not dare say, even if it was true. If you want a nice and peaceful stay withouth any annoying persons, avoid this hotel.

We staid here for 4 nights, because the hotel is close to a golf course we were eager to play. The rooms are nice and the service is friendly. The breakfast buffet is ok. The location close to a major road will create a problem when leaving the window open overnight. The restaurant is a catastrophe. The cook might have good ideas, but apparently lacks resources. Therefore one is offered only 1 menu, consisting of 3 choice each for entrée, main course and desert. The servings for the main course are very small. 1st evening: Entrecote of beef. But, no, you do not get a steak - only three slices of it. With cold balls of apple in lukewarm dots of gravy. Anyway, the principle seemed to be ok. My desert was an assortment of cheese, meaning: 3 types of cheese. 2nd evening: My wife had salmon as main dish. Meaning: 5 cubes of salmon, side length 2.5 cm, neatly arranged in a row, no side dish. I had Gardiane de Taureau, meaning stew of beef, on creamy polenta. Not bad. The third choice for main dish was another kind of fish, which I tried to avoid. My desert was Ile flottante, meaning foam of egg white floating on vanilla sauce, including two bisquits, also not bad. 3rd evening: The menu was _exactly_ the same as on day 2, no variation. Since I did not want to go for fish, I had again - Gardiane de Taureau. Much less polenta, which was on the cold side. The desert of my wife was Ile flottante - but came with much lesser amount of vanilla sauce and only half a bisquit. Normally, after such an experience I would go to another place. But on the fourth evening we were tired from golf and decided to carry it through. 4th evening: The menu was _exactly_ the same as on day 2. Since I did not want to go for fish, I had again - Gardiane de Taureau. And this was the worst experience: 5 small cubes of meat, but 8 black olives. The gravy was lumpy, clearly a warmup from day 2. The polenta (an even even less amount than on day 3) was _not_ creamy, but lumpy, cold and tasteless. To finish the experience: My assortment of cheese consisted of only two different types, and the Ile flottante of my wife again had only half a bisquit. To summarize this: Unless the policy of the restaurant to offer warmups for three days in a row is significantly changed, one should avoid this by all means. Rather, get a box of pizza and bring it to your room.

This hotels is not worth his 3 stars. Rooms are noisy due to the thin walls. From the 4 days we took breakfast, 2 of them were without toast-bread and the 3th one was with some left-overs. Nice terras but some staff members don't take corona as serious and do NOT ask for the ”pas sanitaire”. Diner is NO MORE served as buffet and the entry's (3) are always the same. Dessert = same story but you can choose out of 5. Portions are minimale, same as the prices. But for the same quality you're better of in the Flunch at 2km and for half of the price. Rooms are Campanile ! Not very spacious but the beds are OK. After use, some toilets needs to be ”pushed” 3 tot 4 times before they are ”clean”, there is no pressure at all. There is also no control at all in the parking lot, were we stated that the places for disabled persons are taken by everyone without card !!! SHAME !!! We go yearly to Manosque and this year we tried this Camanile. Good for 1 time but we will not book it again. Too many negatifs and very few positifs.
