Location, room, services, breakfast, free drinks and nibbles around 7pm, charming pool - the pool tiles looked dirty, so was the pool water; the hotel was too quiet, some soft music can be played in the background at breakfast or drinks time or at the pool.

Andreina

Great small boutique hotel in a great area full of dinning options and shops. The family room was huge and very well kept. I went to St Tropez that was actually like 15 minutes away. If you are going for few days I would recommend this hotel. Price was great vs actual place.

After a late 1.30am arrival, my wife and I were welcomed and quickly checked in by the friendly and efficient reception team. The Matisse is perfectly located within easy walking distance to the beach as well as a great selection of restaurants, bars and shops. We were especially impressed by the daily aperitif hour where complimentary wine and snacks were served, a lovely touch.

Disliked: Room comfort
Clean and friendly, horrible mattresss
The hotel is very nice and the staff are very attentive. The hotel and the rooms are very clean. The only problem was our mattress was so very old and completely broken with a few springs broken. It was survivable for 2 nights but desperately needs replacing!

Richelle

Really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Matisse. Very centrally located to the centre of Sainte Maxime. The hotel is less than a 2min walk to restaurants and shops. The room was a nice size as was the bathroom. Very clean and beach-like colors. Breakfast buffet was simple but nice. Loved sitting on the outdoor patio with the complimentary evening wine & snacks. Reception staff was friendly. Didn’t use pool because it required walking thru backed up water that was only drained at 10-11pm. This was truly my only complaint. Everything else was perfect. Will definitely stay there again

Great stay
This was a great little hotel close to shops and restaurants in Saint Maxime and a short drive to Saint Tropez. The woman at the front desk was so friendly and helpful- spoke English, German and French (all the languages in our group!). The breakfast was amazing. Rooms are small but very clean, comfortable. Parking across the street.

I booked last minute and got a good room with lots of room and very clean and comfy bed. The front desk made things so much easier for me because I had a car and the staff took the time to explain where to park for free. It was easy and the staff makes this hotel a 4 star hotel!

We chose this hotel blindly after a terrible experience in Arles. We picked a winner. The lobby and room were lovely. It’s a two minute walk to a fun beach. The breakfast was good. It’s right in the middle of the action but it was quiet enough to sleep. Two minute walk to the ferry to St Tropez. I’d hype Sainte Maxime and this hotel to anyone.

Exceptionally Clean, Good Location, Great Staff
Have never had great experience of UK Best Western's when travelling for work so I usually avoid but had researched Hotel Matisse on hotels.com ahead of my trip. By the time I arrived in Sainte-Maxime I could not get my data or any city WiFi signal so I approached Hotel Matisse and asked to buy a coffee and use their WiFi whilst I sorted accommodation. The staff were so very kind and so very helpful I decided to book and had a wonderful experience. Exceptionally clean, bathrobe, slippers, coffee machine, cold water, fridge, toiletries and other useful items. Good indoor/outdoor seating areas. Excellent range of breakfast items. I plan other trips to Sainte-Maxime later this year and would look to stay at Hotel Matisse again. So very handy for the city/shops/beach and boat trips/buses to St Tropez.

Good location, nothing more.
The location is the only thing good about the hotel. Before travelling I asked about parking situation and was "offered" a €25 parking package for a day while their website was stating €15. After pointing out this I was offered the €15 parking but nothing was mentioned the cheaper parking was for a night instead of full day. The receptionist was impatient speaking broken English trying to explaining the parking situation. The only other thing she mentioned was asking us if we wanted breakfast, nothing mentioned about any thing else. We had no idea where the pool was, didnt know wifi password, minibar etc. The room is tiny, everything is old and odd. The "view" of our window is 2 meters away from the wall of the building next door. You need to wait a good 5 minutes before hot water comes to the taps and it was one of those system your shower temperature changes drastically if you use the tap at the same time. Thin metal bedside table that makes total unnecessary loud noise whenever put anything on it. It is the kind of room you can almost hear sleeping breaths next door. There was a crying baby in the room next to ours cried all night so we didn't sleep much - not the hotel's fault but we booked our room months ago and checked in fairly early and the hotel didn't seem to be very busy, we could have been offered another room giving the receptionist must knew there was a baby next to our room. Paid drinks in the fridges, all glass bottles but no sign of bottle opener.
