マ ドゥ ラ シャペル(Mas de la Chapelle)

This hotel was so beautiful! I wished we were staying for many more days. There was so much to see. The pool was fantastic and the grounds were amazing.

I’ve seen reviews which say this place is quirky. I would not describe it as quirky. I felt this place was a little spooky. It is very cluttered and unkept (both in the main house and garden areas). We had indicated that we had a lot of luggage because we were staying in France for 7 weeks and they ended up putting us on the second floor. It was difficult to bring luggage, especially since most of the ground is covered in pebble. When we got to our room which was supposed to be deluxe superior, there was a useless round couch that was fortressed by cement blocks and I have no idea what that couch was for - wasted space and we upgraded to get a bigger room so in the end we had less space than we thought we were getting as advertised. The bathroom was ridiculous with the tiniest shower with a circular shower curtain that would latch onto you when taking a shower. That’s simply unacceptable to make a shower that tiny (picture a quarter of a pie shape) and to circumvent it with a shower curtain that would touch people while showering. When we complained about it, they offered us another room, but it was very dark and depressing and so it was a matter of juggling one thing versus another, and in the end, the headache of having to change rooms when we’re not staying there for a long time wasn’t worth it. The decor in some of the rooms we scary/depressing seeing we were in the lovely countryside so it was an odd choice. Some paintings had ghost/alien-like floating people. Creepy.

This place is truly an oasis and small paradise away from everything, yet still close to places to go and visit. There is ample parking inside the plot, and rooms are distributed over the place in several small buildings. The garden is large, and everywhere you can find some nice paths, nooks, and alcoves. The pool is rather big and L-shaped - kids need to be able to swim as it gets rather deep. We had the chambre rouge, and everything was matching there as expected from the name. The room is big enough for 3 people, toilet and bathroom (very big) are separate at opposite ends of the room. Old furniture (in excellent condition) completes the stylish image of the room, which also features a small veranda right in front of the entrance. Breakfast can be had outside or indoors, and everything French is available in excellent quality. Staff are very hospitable and helpful, too. If you want something a bit different, calmer, and you like smaller hotels and to explore the surroundings yourself, then this place is for you.

Such a beautiful hotel set in amazing gardens. If you want pristine and modern, this isn’t for you. It is arty and quirky and that’s what makes it so special. It’s a perfect escape from modern life, so peaceful and restful.

Charming, if slightly surreal hotel in which you feel as if you were in a tropical forest. And as with tropical forests, be well-armed against the mosquitos. The place is absolutely crammed full of quirky and unusual artefacts which have clearly taken years to collect, staff are extremely friendly and helpful and breakfast is standard continental fare. The hotel was difficult to find, even the satnav had trouble, and given that the hotel is about 10 minutes away from the town centre, a car is essential.

Very cute and calm place. Flexible checkin, friendly staff and clean rooms. The pool was also cool. We were biking from Avignon to Arles via Rhone cycling lane and the place was easy to find and not at all de route from the cycling lane. Will be definitely happy to come back!

Comfortable chalet room in historic garden with fountains and statues. Refreshing swimming pool. Good location with short drive into Arles. Excellent self-service breakfast. Would stay for longer next time.

we liked the overall look of the place/ we did not like the short of sitting place at breakfast and the mosquito bites

Mas de la Chapelle is gorgeous. Both the inside and out. Wonderful stay!!!
