Avignon Hotel Reviews
Expedia verified reviews
5/5 Excellent
"We loved our stay. Friendly and accommodating staff. Beautiful room. Great service. "
"Room was clean and great for solo traveller. The location is a little far from city center, but is definitely walkable to city center and the train station. Location is quiet and safe, and there’s a grocery store right beside the building so very convenient. The shower was a bit small and nowhere to put the shower gel, so it was a bit difficult to place my things. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The reception is limited hours, but I didn’t find that to be a problem. Overall I would recommend! "
A verified traveller stayed at Apart'Hotel Sainte-Marthe
"Quiet room located in the back of the hotel. Our window overlooked the Palais de Papes. Friendly staff. The hotel is located inside the Avignon city center and very convenient. "
A verified traveller stayed at Mercure Avignon Centre Palais des Papes
"Very very well located in the old city, quite close to the train/bus stations, but also a quick walk to the main squares and the Papal Palace. Staff was friendly, buffet breakfast was sufficient, and was an unexpectedly large and comfortable room. Would stay here again for sure."
