Beautiful Chateau Well Worth the Stay
An absolutely perfect stay, Chateau du Martinet is exactly the place for which we had hoped: a gorgeous rustic building, charming grounds, and a friendly team of people that went out of their way to ensure all of our needs were met. The hotel is pet friendly, and two very friendly little dogs greeted us upon our arrival. The driveway is a bit oblique to the main road and we missed it the first time by. But that is no problem because it is worth the drive. I look forward to staying here again. Thank you!

The Chateau experience
A lovely Chateau in a perfect location, right in the heart of the Southern Rhine vineyards, the room was nicely decorated, bed really comfortable and a lovely outlook. The bathroom was especially lovely with roll top bath Andrew walk in shower with jet sprays. The public areas seemed a little tired and dated, and in need of updating. We were there in March, so was not planning on using the pool, which was good as it was empty and the area around it seemed untouched, so unsure if this will be tidied and pool filled by the summer.

Nice Castle with Potential
This is a beautiful castle with a large pool and very warm and friendly staff/owners. I would stay again, but it is worth noting that the place is in need of a bit of an upgrade on the inside. It is run more like a bed and breakfast than a hotel, so you will see personal items around (like stuffed animals and knick knacks) and there are a couple of little old friendly dogs that roam freely. The bedding and the decor will remind you of staying at your grandma's house. That being said, the place has huge potential and is worth a stay. Also, the place was difficult to find using the app (or even Google maps), but only because the castle is about another three to five minute drive down the road. Keep driving and you will not miss it because it is right on the side of the road.

Really French place to stay in Provence
Having lived in France in the late 70's, I know that this small hotel is truly French. It is run by an older woman who wanted to put the Americans in the suite in the dependency which was dark and musty until I insisted it was too hot back there. We moved to a third floor suite that was wonderful: bright and sunny with gorgeous views and a killer bathroom. We had dinner there the first night surrounded by French couples and the food and wine were wonderful. It is very close to Orange and Chateauneuf du Pape and the countryside is gorgeous. There are also many wineries nearby with tasting rooms. The property is not in perfect condition but has lot of charm and is very comfortable in a perfect location in a small village.

Quirkey experience!
Unfortunately we were not expected despite having booked via Expedia, we were however made welcome. It turned out later that the booking had been received but the owner wasn't up to speed with using the internet! They don't seem too prepared for guests, we were up before the owner and waiting for breakfast! Great quirky experience, you need to speak french tho as they don't speak english.

Charming country estate
Chateau le Martinet is a charming country estate that has been converted to an Inn. Although no one speaks English, all you need is a small amount of hotel and restaurant French and you'll have no problem at all. Skip the garden rooms and go straight to the "castle" rooms, meaning you'll be in the main house. The bedroom looks like something from a museum exhibit (only you are allowed to touch) and the bathroom is very modern and spacious. Check out the pictures on the web page - the place looks just like that. Breakfast on the terrace was quite nice and of high quality.

Litet slott mitt i Cote du Rhone-distriktet.
På väg hem igen fann vi denna mysiga plats bland träden. Efter inrättande på rummet med hjälp av Madamen, så bjöds det på ett glas läskande dryck. Nu dags för den stora poolen (2m som djupast), very nice! Underbara gamla solsängar. Tyvärr var restaurangen stängd när vi var där, så vi fick åka till en annan ort. Efter en god natts sömn i himmelssängen, så blev frukosten lite väl platt, enda minuset.

Agréable à part la réception
Établissement très agréable. La chambre est parfaite ainsi que le petit déjeuner en terrasse. Nous regrettons toutefois l’accueil assez froid que nous nous avons reçu au prétexte de notre arrivée « tardive » (21h). Nous avions prévenu trois heures auparavant. Néanmoins notre chambre n’était pas prête. Heureusement que l’amabilité du personnel a sauvé la situation.

Bezauberndes Schlosshotel mit sehr guter Küche
Wir hatten ein Doppelzimmer im Schloss (Achtung es gibt auch Zimmer im Anbau!) gebucht und eine Suite erhalten. Man fühlt sich gleich wohl und wird von den Eigentümers einschließlich der Hunde sehr freundlich begrüßt. Das Schloss liegt direkt an einer Straße. Wenn das Fesnter geöffnet ist, hört man auch morgens den Verkehr.
