Literally, from the moment we entered the gates of Bastide Saint Mathieu we were greeted warmly by Bill and Soraya as if family. In fact, we were treated as family and urged to make ourselves at home, raid the fridge, roam at will, put on whatever music we liked, etc. The grounds and home are absolutely stunning. We were treated... more

Discovering Bastide St Mathieu is like discovering the perfect house party in the Riviera. Exquisitely decorated bedrooms in a an idyllic peaceful setting. It's stylish throughout, so much so that apparently one of the worlds most luxurious brands used it last year for a perfume launch. I loved meeting the other guests, who were all well travelled, fascinating to talk... more

We went to this hotel, mistakenly believing what we read on the website - that it was a small luxury hotel. The shock that the reality was so different really was awful. Although there were acres of garden for the children to play to quote the owner, our daughter got a splinter the first time she played on the rubble... more

Sadly where do you start ! Having corresponded in detail with the owners about our hopes/ needs for young children - we were staggered/ shocked at how poor the 'hotel' was. The website says a luxury hotel - please be aware that it is a B&B - that is all. Breakfast is a 'continental' no cooked food offered, and there... more

This is a place that I would not hesitate to return to again and again. The clever mix of hotel/private house is perfect.

I've stayed at Bastide Saint Mathieu several times with colleagues and it never ceases to provide excellent service. From the beautiful building and surroundings to the wonderful people who run it, it truly is a unique place. I won't hesitate to go back time and time again. Thank you for always providing us with a wonderful time and wonderful service. more

This exceptional very small hotel between Grasse and Cannes is really an oasis of charm and difference. There are only five rooms (all names after famous Riviera figures like Cole Porter and Bardot), each stylish and huge, some more than huge. But it is more like a private home; as we arrived we were drawn into the owners private party... more

a beautiful small hotel with charming owners who take care of their guest in a real special way....definitively worth to stay.... more

This place is beautiful. The rooms are perfect with large bathrooms. The breakfast has everything you need to get you going for the day. You feel as if you have so much space to relax in. It has a large pool and a boule area. It is close to Cannes and some little French villages that you can wonder around... more
