Great hotel! Friendly staff. It is located right across from the historic castle. Beautiful view from the patio. I would definitely stay again.

10/10 Exceptional

What an unexpected surprise. The hotel was at the foot of the old castle and also had spa services at a very reasonable price which we took advantage of. We arrived early and the grounds were a lovely place to grab a drink and a nibble to wait for our room. This was an unexpected gem.

Hilary, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely room although a little small and the bed was only a double. We didn’t like the huge window between the room and the bathroom there is a blind but still see through. The toilet has a glass door too. Very little privacy, luckily we’ve been married a long time but could be tricky for a new relationship!
Martin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely and great staff

Only one night in Carcassonne and the old city was a bit of a disappointment, thankfully the hotel was lovely - small, family run, and parking was a bit of a faff - but enchanting. Apart from yet another sliding glass door 'covering' the loo, and annoyingly loud music all evening in the bar/restaurant/garden, it was a nice space to spend time. Food options were limited but nice, staff deserve special mention - top notch! Spaniel is your best friend if you have food, cat takes further convincing- would be amazing in summer I think.

A découvrir

Nous avons été déçus par la chambre très petite et très sombre. Par contre, chambre avec emplacement idéal : l'accès direct à la Piscine et au parking , terrasse . La réception , la salle de restaurant intérieure et extérieure: magnifique cadre au pied de la citadelle . Excellent petit déjeuner et planche charcuterie sympathique pour un petit creux à toute heure .

Beautiful Carcassonne Hotel

This hotel is absolutely beautiful with the most wonderful setting and location. The staff are helpful, friendly and professional. The set menu breakfast is beautifully presented and plentiful. We stayed in the Deluxe garden/pool facing room. These rooms are quite small but have a lovely outdoor patio area. The lighting in the room isn't good enough and is extremely dark. The floor uplights are very blinding.The shower had a drain smell. The uplighting on the pathway up to the rooms is quite blinding and the steps are very easily missed. If these issues could be rectified it is definitely a very unique experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Pleasant hotel in great location

The hotel is superbly situated three minutes walk from the main entrance to the castle and the departure point for the little train that takes you round below the ramparts for great views. We had a junior suite, which was spacious with attractive traditional decor. Breakfast was served as a set menu with minimal choice but was fresh, plentiful and tasty: good value. The hotel has no lift and staircases are narrow and twisting staircases but staff were pleased to help with luggage. Indeed, staff were pleasant and helpful with everything. There were nice touches like moist towels handed out on our return from a hot day out. The only downsides to our stay were a TV remote held together by cellotape that eventually stopped working, and a great-looking spa bath that did not work for bubbles. (Apparently not included in the room specification, but no information to say that. I only found out after filling the bath, getting in, and pressing the bubbles button to no effect) One point to note is that, while it did not affect our enjoyment of the stay, the hotel is notably smaller and the grounds less extensive than the impression given by website photos.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here! We didn't know what to expect and loved it. Service is friendly and attentive, the hotel is across the street from the fortified city. Rooms were a bit small for 3 people but still comfortable. We didn't get a chance to use the pool but left feeling like we should come back to this hotel/city at some point in the future. Breakfast is incredible and scenery is beautiful!
