"Presented as another exemplary blend of château and vineyard, this property encapsulates French hospitality through its estate setting and wine-focused environment, merging grand château living with the ambiance of a working vineyard." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Held up as a particular example of a Two Key hotel that combines both chateau and vineyard accommodations." - The MICHELIN Guide
"In the kitchen of this magnificent 18C bastide, chef Matthieu Dupuis-Baumal serves boldly inventive dishes, in which Provençal notes meet subtle Japanese influences. The flavours are clear and always controlled, and each recipe brandishes a confident culinary personality. The setting is magical, complete with a magnificent terrace, and makes for a sumptuous backdrop for this firework display of flavours. The wonderful wine list includes a selection from the château." - Michelin Inspector
"It’s not every day a new luxury boutique hotel opens in Provence, especially not one set on a winemaking estate surrounded by acres of organic vineyards and finely manicured gardens." - Mitchell Friedman
"At Château de la Gaude I breathe in a perfect microclimate on lush lawns sheltered from the mistral; vines and olive trees frame evenings when we dine under a canopy of pines, and mornings when we have fresh coffee and a brioche with figs by the pool while guests chat over glasses of rosé." - Rachel Donadio Rachel Donadio Rachel Donadio is a Paris-based writer and former European culture correspondent for The New York Times.
