Got room no. 7 on the 3rd floor and facing the square. Hotel itself is interesting as they have converted an old stone building. Hence much of the rooms and hallways have bare stone walls and there is a spiral staircase that you just don't see in a typical hotel. This adds character to the rooms and makes the stay... more

We'd stayed in this hotel two years previously whilst holidaying in the Cevennes. Having taken a day trip to Avignon we'd decided it was a place we'd like to spend some real time and booked into this hotel. It met our expectations then (not overly chi-chi, but all you need and quite quirky) so we decided to stay again. We... more

We arrived at the hotel around 9pm via rental car and had a hard time finding the hotel at all. The streets to the hotel are closed to pedestrians unless you know the trick to get around it and the garage to park the car was not easy to find. As I ran on foot to find the hotel while... more

We stayed at this hotel for one night while on a road trip. We had decided to stop at Avignon and once there we just had to stay! This was one of our favorite stops on our trip. The Palais des Popes is a must, and the town, restaurants and shops were wonderful. There was a wonderful atmosphere here. This... more

Great location at the top of Place de L'Horloge - our room looked out onto the Palais des Papes. Very friendly and helpful staff. The bedroom was big with a great painting on the ceiling and four poster bed (we had a junior suite at 120€ ), but the bathroom was pretty ordinary. Breakfast on the restaurant 's terrace was... more

This is a sweet, very clean, simple, but charmingly, decorated hotel - and quite reasonably priced (65 euro for double room) given that it's directly opposite the number one Avignon attraction. Its a great location with everything on your doorstep - although if you are a light sleeper, that may be a detraction - as the street life is right... more

A gem. Everything's done out in bare stone, yet warm, clean and homely - excellent features and fittings, shower etc, and the widest and firmest bed we'd ever slept in (though it did squeak a bit). We had a view over the spectacular square in front of the palais - others look down the main street. Not sure if the... more

My wife and I stayed here 20 years ago and loved it. For our 35th wedding anniversary we decided to revisit. What a disappointment!. We had reserved and confirmed a suite; not available on the day of our arrival because "toilet was plugged up". This state must have existed all day and noone apparently bothered to fix it . Got... more

I stayed at this hotel 3 or 4 years ago and had a pretty OK time and, despite negative reviews, thought I'd try it again. Well, the reviews were right, I should have avoided it. Without being antagonistic or overtly rude, the staff were the least helpful I've ever found in France - and I say this after travelling 5-6... more

My wife and I stayed here in October, 2004. Originally booked for 4 nights, left after 1 night. A great location in Avignon, but....the shabby appearance of the lobby should have given us our first clue of what was to come. The room was not clean. The canopy bracket over the bed was broken, the bathroom was in disrepair. Awful.... more
