A lovely hotel in the heart of medieval Carcassonne with lots of cafes, restaurants and beautiful shops all on the doorstep. Staff on reception, at breakfast and cleaning were all great and attentive. Our suite room was spacious, with a great coffee machine and toiletries. The garden was a nice quiet space to sit and enjoy some sunshine.

This hotel is inside the grounds of the medieval castle. It is absolutely breathtaking and will blow you away. You have to park about 5-10 mins away and walk into the castle grounds to the hotel. Inside the walls is like being transported back to the middle-ages. There are lots of little boutique shops and restaurants. The hotel was very nice and the staff were extremely helpful. The breakfast is also worth checking out. It was great!

Lovely hotel in the medieval city centre

Hotel was great; had lots of character, location was great, excellent breakfast, a comfortable room, and great service overall Our room was a little toasty at night and we would have loved a more effective air con unit. That was our only con.

Loved our rooms. Not in main hotel building - in a small courtyard behind it. Perfect for us - so pleased we were allocated those 2 rooms. Only reason not given 5 stars is the difference in room equipment. No fridge in one and a fridge not working in the other.
