Excellent location, but difficult to access

Breakfast was excellent. The location of the hotel was excellent too. But, it is necessary to inform the guests that it is not easy to bring the luggage to the hotel individually. in my case, police officers gladly helped me to drive to the hotel.

Fantastic location

Very comfortable hotel and great location for exploring Avignon. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would have liked a balcony or street view, and options for tea and coffee in room were limited, with milk not replaced every day. Floor in bathroom became very slippery when wet.

Best place to stay in Avignon

Very good hotel, would recommend! The location is unbeatable, right next to the Palais des Papes and right in the middle of the city center. The parking is super easy and close - but is a little expensive even with the discount. The air conditioning works well, even in almost 40°C heat. The highlight though was the reception staff! Very friendly and helpful
