Central convenient location, parking underground and attached to the hotel. Close to dozens of restaurants and shopping. Hotel is not new but seems well maintained. The only feedback I would give is to clearly state the parking charge in the listing. They state that the offer a parking discount but it would have been better to know that parking in the city garage is 22eu per night as I would have calculated that and the city tax into the overall charge.

I stayed in four different hotels in France this summer, and this one was by far the best. Very spacious room and excellent breakfast. Literally right next to the Palais des Papes—talk about location!

No access to the hotel because of barriers.
Tried to get into the hotel for two hours but was blocked every time by temporary barriers and electronic barriers. It was a nightmare trying to get to the hotel. I abandoned Avignon after two hours of driving various routes. Will never book this hotel ever again. Donal Dowds

Location of hotel is excellent and the staff were pleasant and very helpful. The room had two beds and the room was very small and awkwardly designed. With 2 people in the room it was difficult to move around.

Amazing location and lovely staff. The building is quite dated and the beds were not very comfortable. The public parking garage is close and convenient, but does require some walking to get to the property. We had a wonderful view. We liked the minifridge and the near blackout curtains.

Main positive is location, location, and location. It is next to Palaus du Papes, across from Place de Ville (City Hall) and Place de l’Horloge (many restaurants), and is within walking distance to supermarket and Pont d’Avignon. Spent one day leisurely touring Palais des Papes and Pont d’Avignon. Took a 9-hr tour of Provence (highly recommended). Hotel is basic and room is tiny, but room layout is functional (love the separate toilet and shower/sink vanity), and price is very reasonable. Highly recommend this hotel.
