Finde Hotels in Saint-Michel-l’Observatoire

I had read some mixed reviews so weren't sure what to expect, but we came away pleasantly surprised and overall had a fantastic time. The property is located about 1-2 km outside the town centre of Manosque in a residential area, so it's quiet and right in the middle of nature. The receptionist lady (sorry I forgot to ask her name!) who checked us in/out could not have been more kind. Speaks perfect English and is so warm and friendly. The room we had was a ”Prestige”, it's very spacious with a private terrace and recently renovated. We loved the open bathroom and the giant Italian shower. It's not a ”luxury” room but is clean and has everything you'd need. The view from our terrace is towards a little garden, which was very relaxing. Parking is free and we were able to park just outside our room, so it was quite convenient. Breakfast consists of basic French breakfast items (cereals, pastries and fruits) and we found it to be sufficient. The pool looked inviting but we didn't get to use it. We did encounter a male staff (twice on the phone) who didn't seem to be very helpful or knowledgeable, but all the female staff were wonderful. Wifi signals were pretty poor in our room - I had to resort to personal hotspot to download my photos. Highly recommend this charming little hotel as your base to explore this beautiful area.

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.

Das Hotel liegt in den Pinien außerhalb des Stadtzentrums, singt melodisch und Zikaden summen. Das Zimmer ist einfach, aber alles ist da. Das Badezimmer bietet eine Badewanne und Seife. Der Schrank ist in einem kleinen Flur abgeschlossen. Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Sie werden einen entspannenden und exotischen Aufenthalt verbringen. Das Stadtzentrum von Manosque ist jedoch in einem 10-minütigen Spaziergang vom Hotel aus zu erreichen. Ich empfehle !

Nous voulions un pied-à-terre pour découvrir la région. Très belle découverte! Endroit spacieux et calme . Une chambre spacieuse, très propre, décorée avec goût + une bonne literie. Un emplacement pour se garer face à notre chambre de plein pied. Des espaces extérieurs où nous avons pu nous poser, terrasse, jardin ombragé avec petit terrain de pétanque et surtout profiter de la piscine. Le petit déjeuné y est très complet, de qualité avec des produits de régions et fait maison. Des belles planches mixes sont également proposées le soir, ce que nous avons dégusté avec une bonne bouteille de vin du secteur, dans le jardin avec notre petit chien! Oui les animaux sont acceptés un plus pour nous. Mais surtout un super accueil du jeune couple, nouveaux propriétaires des lieux . Souriants, avenants, une vraie gentillesse. Tous les ingrédients étaient là pour passer un agréable séjour. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter si nous devions repasser dans la région..

Fuimos con la familia, parte de ella se ubicó en un apartamento para 4 con todas las comodidades, incluido un jacuzzi... Nosotros estuvimos en una habitación. La cama es cómoda y el baño es más que suficiente. Todo estaba limpio y acojedor. Incluso había una máquina de nexpresso. Cabe destacar la atención de los dueños: de 10!. Nuestro hijo es alérgico al huevo y llegaron a hacerle una tarta para el desayuno sin huevo. Increible, Virgine y su marido son un encanto. Los jardines son preciosos, cuidados y con una piscina más que suficiente para relajarse y con muchas tumbonas. Además el sitio está cerca en coche de muchos lugares para visitar. En definitiva es un sitio muy tranquilo en el que vas a disfrutar. Esperamos volver.
