Sowell Hotels la Plage

We had a lovely few days in Sowell la Plage. There is a beautiful beach a few meters from the hotel that is perfect for swimming and has paddle boards available for 15 euro. The roof top pool over looks the beach. The staff were all very friendly ,particularly Mihal in the bar. The hotel has an excellent bus services outside the door that brings you into the town center of St Raphael.

I loved the location and the views. The room we got ended up having a little, equipped kitchenette, big bedroom and beautiful balcony. The pool was really nice too. Great to hangout and take in the incredible views. Did I mention it’s also on the roof top? Staff was friendly and helpful as well.

Just returned from a week at the hotel and would definitely not go back and wouldnt recommend it to anyone. Shame as the potential is there but it misses on so many counts. All Inclusive is limited in that its not available all day - the ONLY Restaurant is shut from 13:00-19:00 and there is no where to get other food from such as a snack bar. The bar closes at 22:00 and only serves beer and wine in the afternoon. The food was average with little imagination and the same thing just rotated on days. Overall the worst All Inclusive i've stayed in. On a positive side i suppose the rooms were nice and air conditioned , the staff on the whole were pleasant and the cleaners were lovely. Local bus stop just outside the front of the hotel means at least its easy to get out of the hotel and go and spend money on decent food and drink in St Raphael or A*** or further afield. Just very disappointed

Good rooms, lovely views and location. Poor all inclusive and awful drinks in bar, served in glasses I used to have at school dinners! It closes at 10pm. Restaurant is closed from 1pm to 7pm, bizarre! Restaurant has no air con, so all doors wide open, baking hot in there, and consequently, there are always flies on the food! One of the group had food poisoning whilst there. Food is not great and a very limited choice. One of our group is Veggie and she could only have potatoes and some of the salad stuff! The croissants were the nicest thing to eat! Some of the staff were lovely and some miserable! Cleaners in the rooms were excellent. This is an honest review. With a few changes the hotel could be so much better.

All inclusive limité Plage de gravier de l’autre côté de la route. Buffet quotidien le même pendant 8 jours. Piscine petite et mal entretenue. Accueil plutôt froid On sent un groupe hôtelier plus sensible à son profit qu’au bien être de ses clients. On est pas dans l’hôtel de la plage?

The hotel room was verry small and dirty. We didn’t have shower gel and when we took shower, the water was everywhere. The water from the shower came also into the room.. We also found hair on the towel and a clip on the chair. During the night, we couldn’t sleep beacause of the sound of the ventilation from the bathroom..All night I heard the ventilation.

Nous aimons beaucoup le concept de All inclusive (Sowell ou autre) mais là il n’a pas été à la hauteur. La qualité du buffet laisse à désirer, beaucoup moins de choix que dans certains autres Sowell et le peu qu’il y avait ne nous a pas conquis. La chambre après très peu d’année aurait besoin d’un coup de peinture… la terrasse extérieur avec une table en plastique et une terrasse sale … pas ça dans un 4 étoiles !! Mention spéciale aux femmes de chambres et aux serveurs du restaurant !!

On a pu comparer avec le complexe de Arles ou la qualité est meilleur, c’est n’est pas vraiment aussi luxueux qu’on pourrait le croire. Et si on se base sur les prix, ce n’est pas une affaire et même en promotion. La restauration n’est pas de qualité mais passable.

Lhôtel est trop loin du centre pas possible de faire tous les jours à pieds . Salle de restaurant trop petite . Bar pas de places assises quand il pleut la terrasse on la délaisse ??? . Le panier pour le déjeuner pas en période où il pleut tous les jours . Le personnel est très bien . les femmes de ménage trsè professionnelles et sympathiques . les serveurs très gentils très avenants excepté cette jeune française stagiaire peut-être qui promenait son plateau au lieu de débarrasser . La terrasse en bordure de route pas super mais bon comme il pleuvait pas gênant . Quant aux repas du surgelé que du surgelé ?? et le buffet n'est pas suffisamment étalé vous n'avez pas de place . Nous ne reviendrons pas au Sowell St Raphaël . Nous ne disons pas non d'aller voir dans les autres hôtels Sowell .
