Best Western Hôtel La Rade  

Efficiency and friendliness.

Simple, no hidden costs. Just what we wanted. Kettle in room!

Rooms a little small

Never wrote review for a hotel, but this place is worth spending a minute. I have quite a lot of experience with hotels – from hostels to really fancy stuff, both for work and holidays and this place really exceeded my expectation of BestWestern-S. Perhaps that was very personal experience which can be different for everyone but I like it absolutely. I was travelling around France on my own in low season. As the main reason was to see the country – make photos etc. and just relax - my policy was to minimise spending on accommodation as what I needed was just a bed. However after several “good charming budget” places in Paris and Nice (which were not bad in general and were not hostels) I felt I just needed “normal” hotel and I am ready to pay a bit more for it. To say truth, I was hesitant to book Best Western first, as I had experience with them before in at least two other places (quite oldish plush stuff, no names) but in January most of the places in Cassis were closed, and there were not much choice. So I bet that in Cassis bw should not be too old and I think I totally won it! :) If you read this review some time in 2020 perhaps they are already old and plush, but in 2012 they were quite new and certainly had comfort and local style and charm. The room was small, so don’t know for longer stay on holidays with hiking equipment but for travelling alone it was just just just perfect. Add extremely friendly staff, all charm of sunny winter and little bath – what else a girl needs for escape? And that was not expensive at all and totally worth it. Sorry for long text which may sound like a promotion but, once again, they really made the end of my French trip! Totally recommended.

Location is good, short walk to the port. Pool area is nice and breakfast area is overlooking the pool which is nice. Staff were very nice

It is not practical for a family with a baby. Rooms are too small, with the baby cot we had no room to anything. No elevetors so you need to lift the stroller each time you want to get to the room. Parking is not free and it is also tiny and difficult to park. If you come with a baby I wouldnt reccomend this hotel. In addition, the rooms were not very clean.

Pretty good location, set back a couple of minutes from the harbour - quiet. Great view from the breakfast area and pool. Handy garages for the car. Pleasant breakfast buffet.

Lower rooms experience quiet a bit of noise from the upper rooms - toilets flushing, people walking around and pulling suitcases/trolleys, etc. I don't like paying extra for everything - breakfast was extra, the garage was extra.

Great location with views of Cap Canaille. Free parking limited, but garage convenient and secure. Nice room decor with seaside theme.

Dated small bathroom.

Läget och priset!

Die Hotel-Rezeption war wenig freundlich. Wenn ein Gast aus dem Ausland anreist und noch nicht ins Zimmer kann (da das Haus ja nur mäßig belegt war, unverständlich), sollte ma ihn wenigstens mit einem Glas Wasser begrüßen. Wir wussten den schweren Koffer ins 2. Geschoss schleppen; einen Lift gibt es offensichtlich nicht. Nach dem Bezahlen (bereits am zweiten Tag) gab man uns keinen Beleg (das würde später erfolgen). Am Abreisetag aber behauptet die Rezeption, wir hätten gar nicht bezahlt. Erst nach Streit fand sich irgendwo im Computer des Hotels der entsprechende Vermerk.

Petit dejeuners copieux.

Chambre 26 minuscule. Odeur de moisi tenace Bruyant sdb pas digne d'un 3*. Pas ou peu de place pour se garer. Obligation de réserver un garage (attention à la taille du véhicule) plus chère que le pdej. Nous allions réguliérement dans cet hotel par le passé. Accueil était convivial. Ce n'est plus le cas.

Il manque un mini bar

La chambre reste petite en regard du tarif pratiqué, la salle de bain ne correspônd au standing. Rapport qualite prix médiocre

le personnel est très souriant et à l'écoute des clients aussi bien à l'accueil que dans l'hotel. Le petit déjeuner est très copieux. Les chambres sont équipées d'une bouilloire avec des dosettes de café et de thé, ce qui est très agréable. Il y a des oreillers supplémentaires.
