La Ponche is one of the few St. Tropez hotels that is actually on the sea. It is entwined in one of the older, quieter quarters of the village and located minutes away from the port and the Place des Lices. It is an elegant, small hotel and indigenous of the Mediterranean’s “simple but chic” style. It’s also intimate and... More

I stayed there alone this past weekend. Small, boutique hotel in the center of the village. My room was small but perfect with a renovated, marble bathroom. Service and staff were excellent. Hotel has a garage. I also had dinner there which was excellent. The owner, Madame Duckstein, was there and extremely friendly. I had a wonderful Saturday night in... More

La Ponche has a varied selection of rooms, and I have decided that those with views and balconies are the best. Staying in one of those rooms enables you to enjoy peace and quiet even during the height of the season when St Tropez is buzzing. The staff at La Ponche is superb, and are able to assist with all...

The hotel is well situated, in the charming old town of Saint Tropez, facing the sea. The restaurant of the hotel is however very disappointing: the service was arrogant, the food average and the bill disproportionate. Give it a pass... More

We went to St. Tropez in June for our honeymoon. We chose Hotel la Ponche because of it's amazing history. It really lived up to all of that. We had a suite overlooking both an intimate courtyard (with restaurants) and the Mediterranean. Unfortunately the small beach outside of the hotel is a bit dodgy with no one swimming there, but...

This is an excellent hotel in Saint Tropez: excellent location, excellent service, excellent restaurant. The 4 stars are totally fair and correct. In Saint Tropez you have three or four 5-star hotels (Byblos is one of them) and six or seven 4 star-hotels. If you are looking for a 4 star-hotel, cosy, romantic, quiet and charming "La Ponche" is a... More

Okay so it's got no swimming pool, or spa or any such frills. And at eur310 for approx 10sqm, it seems like a rip off. But the location is ace, and even the smallest room is done up wonderfully and one can tell they haven't just crammed ikea junk into their least expensive room. It doesn't have an ironing board...

My significant other and I stayed here for a total of 7 nights in a suite overlooking the sea. It was decorated in soft tones and was roomy and comfortable with an elegant and deluxe marble bathroom with super soft and large towels. The view was unparalled!! It was spotlessly clean and the concierges could not have been of more... More

We have used this hotel for many years enjoying great food and service. Unfortunately we took some friends who are not French speaking, or aquanted with French menus. The normally good staff could not be less interested in waiting for explanations etc; whereafter the service and also the food quality deteriorated to a point of embarrassment. this is quite norrnall...

We stayed 2 nights at the La Ponche. Our suite had a rooftop balcony which was great. The hotel is lovely, small and with personal service. We were very happy with our room and the servcie received. The only sightly negative comment I would make is that I thought the breakfast was overpriced for what you get compared with other... More
