The grounds we lovely, serene and quiet. Parking was secure and easy. Our only complaint was the front desk staff were not warm and friendly which sets the tone for the property and stay. The dining room staff was very friendly in contrast.
A quieter village is a break from tourist crowds in Avignon. The property is a touch of old school Relais and Chateaux. Beautiful grounds for outdoor dining. Several other restaurants in Villeneuve-Les-Avignon village.
I don't usually leave written reviews but want to here. If there was a single thing wrong with this hotel we didh't encounter it. Staff went above and beyond. Personal service was exceptionally well delivered. The facilities not only were well conceived and maintained but significantly contributed to the serenity of place. Small touches everywhere. Truly an amazing experience. Kudos.
Just finished our road trip around France, and Le Prieure was by far the best property we encountered. Large and spacious room, excellent grounds, and impeccable customer service!
The hotel is really comfortable and cosy. The swimming is beautiful. Fantastic spot to relax in the afternoon.
The staff is very attentive.
Decor is a bit dated - everything works.
It is in a great small village within 10mn of Avignon.
Do not hesitate to rent a city bike - super easy and a beautiful ride to Avignon Center.
This place was amazing, quite literally zero complaints! The town is very nice, with Avignon only a 10 min drive. The hotel is stunning, and the property is massive. It’s got a secure parking lot (free) out back, a big beautiful pool and a beautiful dining and breakfast area. The breakfast itself was fantastic! The staff was very nice and welcoming. The room was amazing; big, spacious, and a very comfortable bed. I would go back to this hotel without hesitation. I wish we had stayed more than 3 nights! It is a 10/10 find. Highly recommend to anyone traveling in the area.
I recently stayed at the Prieure Hotel and had a wonderful experience. The room was absolutely beautiful, with tasteful decor and a comfortable bed that made my stay very enjoyable. The service was top-notch; the staff were attentive, friendly, and always ready to assist with any requests.
The food at the hotel's restaurant was excellent. Every meal was a delight, with a wide variety of dishes that were both delicious and beautifully presented. The gardens surrounding the hotel are stunning, providing a peaceful and picturesque setting that made my stay even more relaxing.
The only thing missing was a gym. It would have been great to have a facility for workouts during my stay. Despite this, I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Prieure Hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and serene getaway.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Disliked: Staff & service
For the most part, the staff was not friendly nor welcoming. I booked two rooms at the end of April for a July 19th chicken, chicken, and neither were close to each other. The goal of this trip is to be close to our adult daughters and we were in two separate buildings. We were accommodated on the second night of our trip with two upgraded rooms closer to each other however, the door to our suite broke and we were not able to use that room for that second night. We do commend the one staff member who went out of his way to try and resolve the door issue that night, however it wasn’t possible. The next day, when we went to move our daughters into their new room the staff members on shift at that time questioned whether or not we should actually be able to move into the rooms, questioning our honesty about what had occurred the day before with their colleague overall, we had an OK stay, the pool is lovely and was welcomed on hot days however the menu options at the pool are ridiculous. Nine euros for a can of Coke is not realistic.
