I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the rooftop restaurant inside Hotel de Tourrel in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France.

A truly wonderful rooftop restaurant just next to the old town, with stunning views over the tiled roofs of a charming Provençal village and a nearby church. The staff were incredibly welcoming, and the whole experience felt thoughtfully curated.

The seating arrangement is quite unique: tables are set in pairs with side-by-side seating, separated by plants that provide a bit of intimacy. It’s perfect for couples, but also allows for easy conversation with neighboring tables if the mood strikes — as it did for us. We had a great chat with a lovely American couple from Saint-Rémy, which added a memorable touch to the evening.

The table design is also clever — they can slide closer or farther depending on whether you’re eating or just relaxing, making it surprisingly comfortable.

Now the food:
We started with heirloom tomatoes and pistou — a simple yet flavorful tribute to local produce. Then came a catch-of-the-day carpaccio with citrus notes, followed by perfectly cooked king prawns with a rich, beautifully balanced jus. The seabream fillet that followed was just as delightful, served with zucchini, black rice, and another excellent jus.
Dessert was a summery and comforting cherry preparation with soft biscuit and whipped cream, topped off with a madeleine and coffee.

The view at sunset is spectacular — but do bring sunscreen if you’re there in the summer, as the sun can be strong until late evening.

Highly recommended — and reservations are a must for this exclusive spot.

Incredible culinary experience by the young chef. Beautiful space, delicious wine pairings from across the country, and excellent service. We were blown away, and it made my partner’s birthday spectacular

We recently stayed at Hôtel et Restaurant de Tourrel in Saint-Rémy, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience!

The room is spacious and thoughtfully designed, with high-end European materials and fixtures that give the place a luxurious yet understated vibe. The Aesop toiletries were a delightful touch as well! With only nine rooms, the hotel feels intimate and exclusive, though I can imagine it might be challenging for them to turn a profit with such a small scale. You can really sense the passion and care the owners put into every detail of this place—it’s truly impressive.

The rooftop restaurant, led by a sous-chef from a Michelin-starred kitchen downstairs within the hotel, is a highlight. The food is outstanding, with fresh ingredients and creative flavor pairings that set it apart from typical fine dining. Every dish was great, and our server, Paul, was so friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even better. The tasting menu took about two and a half hours, which felt a bit long, but the quality made it worth it.

The front desk staff—Eva, Matthew, and Camille—were absolute gems. They went above and beyond to help us during our stay, always with genuine warmth and professionalism. Their kindness added a cozy, welcoming touch to this sleek, minimalist hotel.

Overall, we’d love to return to Hôtel de Tourrel! We hope the owners can expand the property to make it more sustainable in the long run, as we’re huge fans of supporting independent businesses like this. You can feel their heart and soul in every corner of the hotel, and it left a lasting impression. Highly recommend!

Eine top Weinauswahl und hohe Kompetenz in der Beratung

Wir hatten das Glück im la Table vom Hotel de Tourell essen zu dürfen. Es war ein absoluter Traum! Empfang, Service und das Essen sind auf absolut höchstem Level. Wir werden in unserem Urlaub erneut hingehen, um nochmals einen wunderschönen Abend zu verbringen mit perfektem Essen und perfektem Service.
Für mich einer der Besten "Chef Quentin Lailler".
Eine unglaublich traumhafte Küche, besser gehts nicht.
Unbedingt zu empfehlen.
