Planted to stay 2 days, but extended to 4 days and enjoyed every minute of my stay. St Emilion is on the World Heritage List. Hotel Pavie is the centre of this city. Yes the hotel is charming and chic, central to everything, Yes it has a 2 Michelin star restaurant Yes the rooms are spacious as are the bathrooms Yes all the amenities are in the room Yes the beds are comfortable . But what really makes this hotel so memorable is the incredible team assembled here in every department . No those not appear to be in anybody's vocubalrly. Receptionists, Concierge, valet and breakfast staff all are so very good at their job, that you could only smile and hope to get a chance to come back. A special shout out to the manager of the breakfast area on the terrace ( stunning views ) she was the ultimate professional. Bravo. Make sure you have the French Breakfast... the croissants and pastries are the best I ever had anywhere. Throw in an omelet and your day will start perfectly. Don't bother looking anywhere else in the area. This is the place. If you can prearrange a visit to a stunning winery Chateau Pavie, take the hotel Bentley and book a private visit . It's €300 but truly worth every euro of it. Yes same owners as the hotel. They also own a wonderful casual bistro a few feet from the hotel. If I could give the people working there more then 5 stars ... they would deserve it.
