5 Stars Hotels in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France

I was fortunate enough to visit The Boscolo in August of this year (22) and have to say I wasn’t disappointed. The staff were welcoming and very helpful and the first impression of the hotel is fabulous. The room was beautiful, clean and very well finished with lovely comfortable beds. The treats left were very welcome too. The pool area was wonderful and the meal we had in the evening, around the pool, was exceptionally good. I would love to visit Nice again and if I do the Boscolo would be my first choice!

At a guess, we have stayed at this Hotel 8-10 times over the past years. I am sorry to say that after our last experience, we will never stay there again. As a 5 Star Hotel, it was slipshod and dissappointing. On arrival, at 16.45 there was nobody on the Reception Desk, but there was a sign which said ” There is nobody on Reception at present, please take a seat and wait ! There is still construction works going on at the adjacent ****** and there are now only 4 parking spaces for guests. which includes one for disabled and one for electric car charging. The only parking is an unattended open car park some 800 metres from the Hotel and I was not prepared to leave a £200,000 car loaded with luggage, laptops, phones and personal items there. The Receptionist agreed that I could occupy a disabled person's bay on the proviso that he could move it if required. The suite on the mezzanine floor was fine apart from the following;_ - Only 5 TV channels none English. - No Notepad or pen. - No list of Telephone numbers to call reception or room service. - Ony 2 towels for 3 persons, when charged extra for 16 year old granddaughter to stay in the suite. Same for Glasses, cups, Tea bags milk. Just 2 for 3 persons. - The Wifi was awful and kept logging you off. Later found out that you could log in using any old name name and email address you cared to enter ! _ One Loo roll ,part used and no spare. - A Huge Stag Beetle was discovered on the sofa and at that point we had not opened the doors to the balcony. We were aware that the main Restaurant would be closed on the Tuesday that we arrived ,but shortly before we left England I received an email that room service would not be available either but we could have a cold meal in our room.Oh well onwards and upwards ! The cold meal turned out to be a choice between smoked salmon, cheese or cold meats each served with bread and butter. No desserts, not even Ice cream. Anyway, we opted for 2 salmon and 1 cheese. After a long wait, the receptionist knocked on the door with the salmon and cheese and a basket of bread which he had himself prepared and it comprised a single baguette cut up into slices and 3 pats of butter. The salmon was just as if it has come out of a packet and there were 6 miserable slices of 3 different cheeses. The cost for this gastronomic extravaganza was €127.00 which included Room service and a warm bottle of white wine( No Ice bucket either). Total cost for a nights stopover with breakfast with hard sausage and rubber bacon was €603.60. Sorry Pavillon, don't expect to see me again.

Booking in advance is cost-effective, breakfast is good, the location is in the scenic area, it is very convenient to go to the top of the mountain church.

Deserves to be a five star hotel in Lyon, with friendly staff. I booked a classic room breakfast for about 1.3K a night. The breakfast was pure western style, but there was a lot of fresh fruit, which was also very cheap in Europe. The view is good, the location is good, and the subway is 10 minutes walk from the hotel. After going to the old town for dinner, I walked back to the hotel and it took 25min. Drinks in the mini bar are free (with fruit juice and cola).

Awesome hotel with a great pool and spa, the hotel is ideally located, beautifully landscaped, attentive service, Michelin-starred restaurant, and World Women's Golf Grand Slam

There is only one '5 star' hotel in Vichy, which is a shame given the town's great history of hospitality. And even this one doesn't deserve to be put in the top category and should be 4 star instead. Prices though are relatively high. The rooms are tired, in particular the bathrooms, and in fact the whole hotel has seen better times. The rooftop pool is small, mostly indoors and in high season was overcrowded. On the positive side, the location is perfect and the restaurant is very nice. When we were there in August a lot of effort was made with an outdoor grill, music and even fireworks. Quality of the food was good, as we service. Overall this probably is still the best place to stay in town, but how wonderful would it be to see a real 5 star hotel being (re)opened in Vichy!

My spouse and I spent three nights in Chamonix. Our stay exceeded our expectations in every way. Even though we booked a small room it was very spacious and luxurious. The beds are wonderful! The stairwell has beautiful wood carvings of red squirrels. Make sure to check them out. It was so nice each morning to look out our window and see how well the grounds were cared for. Everything just looks picture perfect. The food at Maison Carrier was probably one of the best meals of my life. We ate there twice and still look back fondly at our time there. The terrine and piglet shoulder were divine! Also we tried the Quartz Bar for some nice Chartreuse cocktails - just like we make at home. Everyone we met at the hotel was so friendly. We enjoyed the pool each day as a great way to relax after hiking around the area. We plan to return next year for a week. Words cannot begin to describe how beautiful the Chamonix valley is. You have to visit and experience yourself. It’s quite the magical place that speaks to your soul.

Hotel Mont-Blanc is a luxurious hotel in a charming mountain town. Prior to our arrival, we exchanged many communications with the hotel staff, as they provided us with restaurant recommendations and secured reservations for us. During our stay we were able to enjoy the pool, the hot tub, the sauna, and especially time on our balcony overlooking Mont Blanc. Valet service was very courteous. A gift of a little book and treat was provided for children at check-in. The front desk assisted us with activities during our stay, included booking tickets for us. Our accommodation was very nice and we especially enjoyed the very large shower! The location is perfect because the hotel sits off the main street of town, but is just a block away so it's easy to stroll around town, shop, and access the conveniences you may need. There is a lovely garden area near the pool, weather permitting, it is a lovely space to lounge in and enjoy the fresh mountain air. What was most enjoyable and memorable from our stay at the Hotel Mont-Blanc was the food. Their breakfast is worth every penny of the cost - there are so many options and everything is of the highest quality and flavor. Do not miss the hot chocolate! We also enjoyed a special celebratory dinner at their restaurant, which again was absolutely worth the price. The menu changes seasonally, and the dinner we had was one of the best in our lives. We would love to stay at this hotel again, and we would absolutely eat as many meals there as possible!

This is a very different hotel to the other four season winter resorts, yet clearly borrows many of the same concepts; - it’s definitely more glitzy, not in an over the top pretentious way, but no expense has been spared. Every aspect has been tuned to a slightly more luxurious take on the Whistler/Vail property (including being ski in ski out) and that is all consistent with the general ambience of high end French resorts like Megeve. - part of the different experience is the room count. You have similar facilities of a similar scale but less guests, it never feels busy and personalisation is taken up a level, from breakfast to the ski concierge. - the little touches are still there like complimentary hot chocolate and a wine tasting evening just like in Whistler and Vail, but food and beverage is a whole level up (the nod to its history as a Rothschild family property with incredible produce from the Rothschild estate is a lovely touch). - rooms are much smaller but more luxurious and very well appointed. Our prestige room was one of the smallest hotel rooms I have had in years (and the most expensive non-suite/villa) but it didn’t disappoint. Well designed, great bathroom and walk in wardrobe & a bonus terrace with views to die for. - staff were generally excellent. The staff from the Athens hotel and ski room guys were stand out excellent (friendly, efficient and enthusiastic). - we had very good spa treatments and concierge made some great restaurant recommendations (reviewed separately). The one negative (why the one star was lost) was the SPA pool temperature. Many guests were complaining it was too cold and it really was too cold. As stunning as the SPA is there is no separate hot tub or jacuzzi and the pool (indoor/outdoor) was too cold to be relaxing (and certainly too cold to enjoy the outdoor section). If they could increase the temperature by just a couple of degrees (or alternatively add outdoor hot tubs) and (as a bonus) maybe introduce the winter outdoor drinks service done best in Whistler, I’d be rebooking my room for next season already. Nothing beats a glass of champagne in an outdoor hot tub or hot pool after a hard day on the slopes - it is a major part of the Four Season Ski Resort experience in North America and my wife and I really missed it. We had a major room temperature issue (AC broken and 26 degrees in room temp!) with no other rooms available. After a few hiccups the GM resolved the issue very well and fairly. Issues happen occasionally and I felt as unfortunate as it was I left feeling they couldn’t have done much more to right the wrong which is why we continue to stay with the brand where possible all around the world.

Fabulous hotel. Great staff, beautiful rooms, very comfortable bed, free movies on the tv, don’t need Netflix. We arranged massages before we arrived, which I recommend doing. She was an excellent massage therapist. From the bellboys to the barmen, everyone was fantastic. Five star experience.

On the hill, the hotel overlooks the old town and the main church, and the scenery is breathtaking. The breakfast is very good, the variety is rich, the fruit is very fresh, and the outdoor dining environment is equally satisfying. The hotel’s Michelin restaurant is also very good, with a historic and historic location in the heart of the city. The outdoor swimming pool is also very beautiful, and you can take a look at the night in the night to enjoy the real night! Every day, I have to climb a high ladder back to the hotel, so tired, oh, oh
