This was a character hotel, perched high up in the hills. The road is not for the fainthearted, but the trip is well worth it. The food was some of the best we have ever eaten - just sublime. The welcome was warm and the service outstanding. This is a wonderful gem that wont stay hidden for long!

The staff was amazing. We had to leave early, and we knew that they didn't man the desk 24/7, but they were so helpful that we were able to take care of any billing through the phone, and this was on our drive back home. Overall, we had a really good stay and the view was amazing around the area.

The property and accommodations are accurately described. The staff is professional, helpful, and friendly in every sense of the word. My wife and I felt that our stay Auberge de la Madone was truly an experience not to be missed, one of a kind. Plenty of safe parking. The dining was exceptional. Highly recommended!

Very beautiful area, professional, friendly, helpful staff and kind and welcoming owner. Neighbours are not so friendly with newcomers, they were very rude and did not welcome us the same way as the staff of the Auberge de la Madone. Highly recommend if you want a taste of the traditional French country experience. Fresh local ingredients and niçoise recipes on the menu. An absolute treasure!

Me and my wife were touring in Peillon and spent a night in the only hotel there. The unique place, unique atmosphere of medieval architecture, mountain quietness, pure kindness of personnel who greet you at Auberge de la Madone. Excellent dining with magnificent view from the top of a sheer cliff.
Another particular surprise was to meet there a Ukrainian woman - Lyera, a restaurant waitress, who escaped Russian terrorist bombardment her home city Kharkiv, thus managed to save her life… We highly appreciated her professional skills, politeness and attitude: her attention while serving us a dinner worthy of all praise!

Good food and wonderful view in a historical unexplored atmosphere, but inadequate room services without cleaning or changing blankets and towels, no internet connection and complicated transfer. Hotel personals are not willing to take action to solve guest requests. A private or rental car is a must, but also difficulties in finding gas stations. No other restaurants or shops in the entire village.

Beautiful exterior, but lacking interior comfort
The hotel is located in the mountains and you drive a zig zag road to access it. Once there, parking was easy to find (and free.) We arrived late (11pm) and there was a sign to call the number provided if checking in after 8:30pm. We got a small room and it was very dated with small and uncomfortable beds. There was no air conditioning and it was a hot summer night. There was an oscillating fan provided, which helped a bit. We had to wait a while to check out, but when leaving we got the beautiful view of the exterior of the property.

Paradise in the countryside, but close to Monaco
Incredible destination. A beautiful place high in the mountains, a balm for the soul. And the hotel itself is beautiful, in a great location, with very helpful owners and staff.

This way for vip cuisine
Superb quirky hotel with excellent views
The food is the best I’ve ever had , very reasonably priced.
A little bit dated but once you’ve tried the food who cares about the decor .
Was clean and comfortable .access up a very twisty winding road high up so you need to be a confident driver .

Very nice Hotel with small dsiclaimer
The Hotel was very nice. Near an old village. We were satisfied with everything except for the toilet bowl in our room which was heavily stained. We tried to clean it with the available brush but was not able to. The stain has been there for a long period.

Loved the friendliness of the staff. Most amazing service. I can’t express enough how great the staff were. They were always so helpful patient and smiling. The best staff in all of Europe. From Italy the rest of France Switzerland Germany the Netherlands and all over America. The staff here were the best I have ever experienced. They do it all really. The chef/owner made the most wonderful meals. The staff, the village and the views made the ancient rooms worth the stay. The most amazing village I have ever seen. WOW!!! Really! Very worth it. Highly recommended.

Pour accéder au à l'Auberge, il faut prendre une route à lacets en épingles à cheveux (une dizaine) où le plus souvent, il faute de mettre en première. Une fois arrivé un parking plutôt miteux. Une pancarte "piéton pour s'inscrire" qui donne sur... rien. Remontant le parking, 2° pancarte avec un escalier assez raide et pas beau. On arrive devant un couloir sombre dans lequel se trouvent de chambres. Personne, aucune indication. On appelle et un employé nous dit de laisser nos bagages à cet endroit, qu'ils seront amenés à notre chambre et il nous invite à descendre d'un étage supplémentaire. Le patron nous vante les mérites de l'auberge, nous explique qu'il y a deux formules pour manger: gastronomique ou bistrot (dans les deux cas avec un choix très limité en plats et boisson.. Il nous conduit à notre chambre en nous laissant le soin d' transbahuter nos valises. Elle est assez grande, le lit aussi. En cette période de canicule, il n'y a qu'un ventilateur... Je m'arrête là, je crois que ça suffit pour justifier mon point de vue négatif
