I would not choose this place again. There was incredible lint under the bed and my linens were also full of lint from the blanket ( I hope). Bath seemed clean and was up dated. Small elevator and only one so prepare to use the steps. Other that the location there is nothing to recommend this one.

We stayed at the Hotel du Forum for six nights at the beginning of a three week tour of Provence, the Dordogne and Paris. We feel fortunate to have stayed with Madame and Monsieur Oggier who were a constant source of good and happily provided information; especially restaurants to go to and scenic routes to follow between Arles and Avignon,...

Frankly speaking, you may find Arles fascinating or just good and quite small city it's up to you - what you really like, but the best place to live in Arles while you there is Forum Hotel. I wont tell much but the facts are: 1. Feel like home hospitality. 2. English speaking personal. 3. Perfect price offer. 4. Clean... More

A great little hotel with a great local acrossthe square from the yellow cafe of Van Go fame. Great pool and very refreshing after walking around Arles and seeing the Roman ruins and the sites of Van Go. The breakfast was very good and the staff at the hotel was excellent and the room was very large.

The Hotel du Forum was the focal center of our three day stay in Arles. In spite of being located in the heart of the old city, our GPS lead us precisely through the narrow one-way streets to the hotel. (Do stop at the Tourist Visitor center on your way in). We were greeted at the door, and our SUV... More

We stayed here couple of nights in the summer and the location is absolutely phenomenal. Right in the middle of everything. The room was enormous and fairly comfortable and the hotel has a really nice pool as well. If you are coming by car, especially a bigger one, beware. It's maze of tiny one-way street and it takes a bit... More

We really enjoyed the Hotel du Forum in Arles. It has a secluded courtyard swimming pool that was a real treat in June. We ate our breakfasts and enjoyed a dip in the afternoon. We ate the hotels breakfasts and they were better than expected. Get an upper room in the front that faces Van Gogh's "Yellow Cafe" a real... More

Stayed at Hotel du Forum in September and enjoyed the visit. Located in central old Arles within walking distance to all attractions. Friendly staff, nice pool, room was spacious with safe, bathroom fine but no soap included. The hotel employs a 're-use your towel' policy. Our room was located at the back area and not over the square so quiet.... More

It had been several years since we last visited and we were keen to go back. The hotel and bedrooms have been redecorated. I love the decor, especially the Provencal style bedding and the massive French armoires. Our room was huge, with a pretty view of the pool. The staff were friendly and helpful,and nothing was too much trouble. One... More

This hotel is a special place. Beautiful pool, nice entertainment room, extremely friendly staff, nice spacious rooms. However, two major gripes that are not really the hotel's fault. Getting to the place with a car is very very hard. We had a large Mercedes van (Viano) and the GPS took an odd route through the extremely narrow roads of ancient... More
