Grand Hotel des Sablettes Plage, Curio Collection by Hilton - La Seyne-sur-Mer

Hameed's R.

Our stay at the Grand Hotel des Sablettes was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. The entire team deserves praise for their warm and attentive service; every staff member I encountered was incredibly polite, friendly, and went out of their way to be helpful.

The dining was a real highlight. Breakfast was a fantastic spread, and the fresh-squeezed orange juice from the Zummo machine was the perfect start to the day. We also dined at the hotel's restaurant, La Galerie, and found the food to be truly amazing. The quality of the ingredients and the preparation of the dishes were top notch.

To top it all off, the spa is a beautiful and serene oasis. It was the perfect place to unwind and relax after a day of exploring. I left feeling completely refreshed. I can't recommend this hotel enough for a luxurious and relaxing getaway.

We were Curio Guests in 332 for 2 nights and loved our stay. The views from the balcony are incredible. The hotel staff are extremely nice especially the front desk during check in. She spoke perfect English and was very accommodating. Breakfast was excellent. It was really cute when the young man (Hotel employee) during breakfast was guarding our food on the patio table outside making sure the seagulls did not steal our food while we were inside getting coffee. The gentleman probably waited 5 long minutes for us ,LOL. Notation for the hotel manager,, the signage outside on the main Street is horrible for the CURIO hotel. The sign can be barely seen from the car. Also there needs to be a very clear sign letting your guests know to pull up the gate and wait until the arm goes up. There are 2 different Gates and it's confusing.. The sign should say "HOTEL PARKING HERE" GUESTS PLEASE PULL FORWARD AND WAIT UNTIL GATE GOES UP". Also, there is plenty of parking. As a diamond guest this hotel is excellent ❤️

I had a wonderful stay at The Grand Hotel The Splash. What really stood out was the staff—they are truly the heart of this hotel. Always smiling, friendly, and helpful, they made every part of the stay easy and enjoyable.

The room was perfectly quiet, with a great bed that made for restful nights, and I could adjust the temperature just the way I liked it. The sauna was fantastic, and the indoor pool was just the right temperature, especially when it was cold outside.

The location is perfect—the beach is stunning, with the sound of the waves and birds creating such a calming atmosphere. At the same time, the back street of the hotel is full of life, with summer fairs, live bands, and plenty of restaurants to enjoy.

Overall, it’s a place that balances relaxation with energy, and I can’t wait to return. A big thank you to all the staff for their kindness and professionalism.

This is a luxury property at a midmarket price. The restaurant is good. It's also priced very competitively with nearby restaurants, with better food.

I had a splendid room with a view of the beach and the sea. Staff were welcoming and friendly! Parking is free and easy. This area may not be as popular as places further east, at least I barely heard any language spoken other than French, but it's well worth a visit. There is a highly technical hiking/running coastal path that goes along the southern shore of the peninsula and curves back when it reaches the military base, with hidden coves along it for swimming.

8 years in a row and never disappointed. We have been coming back year after year. The hotel is beautiful, clean, with friendly staff. The restaurant , especially the setting is just wonderful, sitting in a tropical garden, hearing the waves crash on the beach.|Wonderful cocktails, great breakfast, lunch and dinner. We have been there trying out every type of room, in every season, and we just love the place. We just tried the sister hotel, Le Hameau des Pesquiers, and we can only say, wow. The Lelièvre family know this business and they know it well. Will write separate review on the Hameau

Just came back from a lovely two nights at Grand Hotel des Sablettes Plage, and enjoyed it immensely. After having been in Cap Ferrat for a several days prior, it was so remarkable to have some La Seyne-sur-Mer. ||The hotel is beautifully located right on the water, and is ideally suited for travelers who are looking for a more 'local' approach to their French Riviera trip. Upon arrival at the hotel we were warmly greeted, and checked in. As an Honors Diamond member, benefits included complimentary parking (normally 9 EUR), an upgrade to a deluxe ocean view room that included a balcony, daily breakfast in the restaurant, a voucher for two welcome alcoholic drinks, and some full-size Nuxe products (featured at the spa) that were waiting for us in the room. I also especially loved the touch of the hand written letter waiting for us in the room from the General Manager, explaining the history of the hotel, which was such a lovely touch.||The room was a perfect size, including our two big suitcases, and was perfectly suited for two people. Beds were super comfortable and housekeeping was always early in the morning (between 9am and 10am) and I cannot stress how amazing it is to come back from breakfast and your room is made up. ||The pool is on the smaller size, but a nice set up nonetheless for sunbathing and dips in between relaxing, reading a book, etc. Unfortunately the pool area does not have easy access to the beach, but does have an attendant every afternoon to order drinks, light bites from, etc. The beach is accessible from the hotel by going through the restaurant and its patio to exit the hotel - just past the walking path are stairs leading down to the beach. It was so cool to see a beach filled with locals relaxing, reading books, taking their daily walk, and the water itself is only ankle deep for several meters walking out into the water. ||The area itself is quaint, and there are numerous restaurants, bars, ice cream shops, etc. all within a 2-7 min walk from the hotel. We ate at Restaurant Le Cannier the first night and Annanata the second night - both 5 min walks from the hotel and absolutely delicious food. Breakfast is decent in the restaurant, but a bit chaotic. Servers are constantly running around doing many tasks, so it was normal both mornings for us to be seated at tables without place settings, to wait a while for coffee orders, and for things like plates and cups at the buffet to not be stocked quickly. Overall though, it was a great spread, and better than most hotel breakfasts (especially the fresh orange juice machine!)||My only feedback is that the hotel pool towel situation is not ideal - there are two orange beach/pool towels in your room, along with a note that if they aren't returned daily you'll be charged. We were able to get more towels throughout the day from the front desk after flipping between the pool and the beach, but it just created a friction point. I imagine this is done given people take towels to the beach and perhaps don't return them, but towels should be unlimited at least by the pool and while the attendant is there. Also the wifi was exceptionally slow - it was hard to get anything really done on my phone or laptop, so take that into consideration.||Overall, for this American tourist, it was a breath of fresh air to stay in such a local town, with many other hotel guests being local or from the region, and really feeling like I got to explore a hidden gem of France. Would absolutely come back and will highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!

Beautiful building in a great location, rooms are nice and comfortable. The breakfast is ok at best, not a great selection and whole thing is a bit chaotic. However the biggest issue is the pool area. Firstly as one other reviewer highlighted there is no access to the beach from the pool. You have to get dressed and walk back through the hotel and restaurant. The bigger issue is the sunbeds. They are old, cheap and very uncomfortable with many of them starting to fray and rip. Not good by far for a hotel of this standard charging the rates they charge. It would not be a big investment to replace them with new sundbeds with comfortable cushions. We are in the main restaurant once, service was poor and the food was not great.

We had two enjoyable nights here. The connecting rooms were quite comfortable, and we appreciated the relaxing moments by the Mediterranean Sea. The hotel doorman Matti made a great impression.

We discovered that the air conditioning in our room wasn’t working. Despite contacting the front desk three times, the issue remained unresolved. The water pressure in the bathroom was also weak, which made it less convenient to use. In addition, the restaurant staff seemed unable to communicate in English, which impacted the overall dining experience.

While we enjoyed parts of our stay, the overall experience fell short of the standard we usually expect from a Hilton property.
