Amazing venue. Worth going to Grand' Riviere just for the benefit of staying a night there. Cute rooftop spa. Even got a personal greeting from Tante Arlette herself!Nice beach nearby but probably not the best location to climb Mount Pelee although we got all the tips we needed to do the climb from another location.More

At the end of the world, up North, down the volcano lies a small town, Grand Rivière, with real local people, and Tante Arlette’s Place is full of surprises...
Nice people, beautifull room (we had the bois flotté room), good soft bed and bed linen, jaccuzi on a lovely terrace, excellent food, it was just perfect.
When you look from the outside, it seems to be basic, but it really isn’t.
Only regret, we had just book for one day and that was much too short !
The surrounding are breathtaking and the road to go there an experience by itself.
Our best stay in Martinique
Dear Muryel,
Thank you for your comment on Tripadvisor.
The Grand-Riviere village is delightful. Our house is a traditional restaurant with a true creole cooker team. Its hide a 10 bedrooms hotel in the other part. Really nice, modern and well equipped.
The Jacuzzi is a must !
We will be very pleased to welcome you again for a longer stay. You need 3 days minimum to visit and relax in Grand Rivière.
Best regards,
We enjoyed staying with the mythical Tante Arlette, and her charming daughter, in this house built a hundred years ago by Tante Arlette's father.
Nice little village in the quiet North of the island, we initially planned this trip to hike the "famous" trail between Grand Rivière & Le Prêcheur, but (knew before we arrived)it is closed; but this should not stop you going, there is the wonderful "La Crabière" walk in Le Lorrain (a nice day trip where you can visit the JM Rhum distillery) and others along the coast. And Grand Rivière itself where you can swim (the sea is lovely and warm) and then just take some time to admire the sunset and watch darkness fall over the sea, it is so peaceful
The hotel restaurant is good, and we had the menu of the day in the evening, but you can of course ask for something else. Breakfast was served on the terrace in the morning and was ok.
The room was nicely decorated (we were in a new room), the bed comfortable, but we would have preferred to stay in one of the "old" rooms as they have a (shared) terrace overlooking the street.
Special mention for the jacuzzi on the roof, that is also a very pleasurable experience especially when it is dark.
And second special mention to all the staff who were friendly and efficient
Everything great but the food. When you have such a nice menu at the website and in reality just the choice between two different plates is it a little bit sad...
Anyway really good quality at everything. Especialy the rooftop-jacuzzi ;-)
Dear guest,
Thank you for sharing your impressions of your stay. For dinner we reduce the menu to offer you a good service. I advise future guests to order the main courses before your arrival.
The rooftop jacuzzi is a must that lot of guest love.
Hope to see you again in our beautiful village.
Sincerely,
excellent hotel and restaurant with friendly staff. recently update rooms. great location in center of lovely village. recently updated nice rooms. the village is very nice with a great little black sand beach.
Dear Jeff,
We were very happy to read your comment. Thank you.
Indeed, there is the beautiful black sand beach called Sinaï near the hotel.
Hope to see you in Grand Riviere for your next visit.
Sincerely,
We spent three nights at Tante Arlette while we explored the north of the island and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. We had a cleverly and attractively decorated room with a great attached shower room. We loved Grand'Riviere, it felt just as it was, the end of the road and the village was also interesting. The hotel, known for its food, certainly lived up to expectations with wonderful main courses, carefully cooked and presented. The only downside was the lack of variety in desserts, we did not want ice cream two nights running! Breakfast was also good. The terrace/lounge area upstairs is a peaceful place to sit and overall we would recommend this as a great place to stay.
Dear Guest,
Thank you to share your experience. All the team was very happy to read your comment. All our apologies for desserts choice, we are improving our dessert menu to offer you a fresh daily choice.
We hope to see you for your next trip in Martinique.
Regards,
