Editorial Reviews:

The ''Côstes'' brand is forever linked with the ultimate in quality and is renowned with patrons as the home of luxury in Paris. After all, the overriding theme is ''all things in excess.'' This is French DJ/Artist Stéphane Pompougnac’s tenth definitive set of the best tracks heard at France’s premiere club, bar & cafe and serves as a ''tastemaker'' (read: trendsetting) CD for the rest of the world. His penchant for choosing the very best music for this series burns bright as he incorporates tracks on this outing from de-Phazz, Laid Back, Goloka, Louie Austen, Orsten, $olal, Angus & Julie Stone, Peder (ft. Anne Trolle), DJ Disse, Deep Dive Corp., Elijah (ft Neve), Pompougnac himself with good pal Charles Schillings, all topped off with Dutchman Benny Sings. Feel free to luxuriate with the sounds and splendor of the most relaxing place in Paris with the upper crust.

Summary: GREAT!
Comment: Even though some people dislike this cd, i think it is absolutely elegant, subtle, and beautiful. I own all other Hotel Costes compilations, and I understand that it is not the same, it is a lot more VOCAL, yet the inspiration is still there.
Fleur Blanche, track 11, is just hypnotising. Actually, I really like all the tracks, all of them.
Don't pass on this one just because of bad reviews. Give it a shot, it grows on you. And like another reviewer said; OPEN YOR EARS, and appreciate the new style of the series!! You really can't get the same sound out of the 11 compilations.

Summary: sad
Comment: I really don't get it. I really love the Hôtel Costes bar and its music, but the last compilations have been disgusting.
Costes 1 is not a bad beginning. 2 and 3 are the best albums that grasp the club's essence. 4 and 5 are less chic but well done. 6 is my favourite one despite it's not too "Costes". 7 and 8 are illogicaly selected and mixed. Volumes 9 and 10 are something like a Café del Mar bad imitation. What about 11? Will this one be another practical joke?
I'll repeat: I really don't get it. Where are Hôtel Costes series going?
Customer Rating:
Summary: There's Better
Comment: This is a series that is going downhill fast. Hotel Costes has Lostus. Repetition and as one reviewer said an utter lack of the sexy vibe that made this collection great. Once perfect for a cocktail party or a night of naked pursuits this collection is now well just uninteresting. I highly recommend the Erotic Lounge series instead.

Summary: 2-3 Stars. As owner of all the Hotel Costes, what a dissapointment...
Comment: Quite simply put here are my ratings of the 14 songs (scale out of 5 stars):
TRACK:
1) 3.5 (Previously owned on another chill CD)
2) 3
3) 3
4) 4
5) 4.5
6) 2.5
7) 2.5
8) 1.75
9) 3
10) 2.75
11) 2.75
12) 1.25
13) 5
14) 2
So essentially, there were only 3 tracks I really liked: 4, 5, and 13. "Fleur Blanche" is track 13, the best song on the CD. Other than that "Save Me Tonight" was decent. None of the other songs were even remotely close to being impressive or moving... Overall, it was a big dissapointment as noted above...
Customer Rating:
Summary: Yawn...
Comment: I have to agree with other reviews that are 'negative'. This is not the best of Stephane and I'm very surprised by it. Can't say I would tell someone that they should purchase it. Not good compared to the earlier cds.
