Capelongue

The room was beautiful and very clean, the service and the staff was perfect with us, the Bergerie's landscape is unforgettable, I recommend this hotel for those who want calm and enjoy the beauty nature

Just left this special place. The view and service were magnificent. Especially the concierge. We loved our intuitive art class and enjoyed the magnificent property. Wonderful concierge. Highly highly recommend this extraordinary place!

We have been visiting this part of France for many years and have stayed at 2 other 5 star hotels previously within the Gordes region so we absolutely wanted to try a new location. We had previously visited Capelongue a few years back and had dinner at the restaurant. What was apparent then (and now) is this location takes you back to the 1970s… think Brutalist style meets Provence chill 🙌 The rooms are amazing: relaxing, simple decor but beautiful. The Pool is 1970s concrete style and set within a well kept landscaped garden. There are ample deck loungers around the pool and even a second pool located near their 1 Michelin star restaurant La Bastide. We ate at both La Bastide and La Bergerie (more relaxed) restaurants. La Bastide was amazing and yes it does take 3 hours to get through the menu but it was worth it! We met the talented younger chef who has a big future ahead (truly the smoke eel and carrot dishes!). A big shout out to the waiter who looked after us (worked in Hong Kong for 10 years)… very very knowledgeable on all aspects of of the food we ate! Another big star ⭐. The not so good… Rooms are not cleaned at regular times so sometimes it’s 3pm and other times it can later… difficult to plan your day if you need to get changed etc. however, calling the reception team does sort things out quickly. The service at La Bergerie was very very long on the first night: 30mins to get an aperitif etc etc nearly 1 hour wait for some food. I personally blame (not the team) but the policy of accepting big groups: 2 tables of total 17 people (9+8). My recommendation to the mgt team is fixed menu for groups over 6 pax. Sorry but kitchens cannot cope with those numbers. Again, had a word with the reception team and the following times, service was much much better 🙌 So why a 5 out of 5? Because other than those 2 nags, as soon as something was not right, they dealt with it! The hotel setting is amazing and the entire hotel quality is very high. We were incredibly sad to leave! BRAVO 👏

This is just such a special place, I don't know where to start. 10/10, no notes. I'm not ashamed to say that I teared up when we were sitting at the pool, looking at the lovely grounds. Just so dreamy and I felt so fortunate for the whole experience. My husband and I are archaeologists, so we loved seeing all of the historical features preserved on the property. The landscaping and the setting against the Luberon mountains were just breathtaking. The room was gorgeous, top-tier interior design with countless little touches that made our stay feel so special. The breakfast spreads is vast and suitable for any dietary needs, and with a gorgeous view of Bonnieux. Dinner at La Bastide was our first Michelin experience. We weren't prepared for a 3.5 hour dinner, but we also were not disappointed; a great culinary experience for a vegetarian (even better for carnivores, according to my husband who can't stop thinking about the squab). I dream of returning to this place.

The rooms and experience are not close to 5 star quality. Our rooms were tiny and had little natural light. They were run down and a bit dirty with insects. The staff closed the window shutters at night making our rooms even darker. The property is fairly large and our rooms were the furthest from everything. The pathways are really dusty so the walks to and from in the heat were unpleasant. There is little thought into the guest experience. This property is expensive and not worth the money.
