Top Avignon Hotel Reviews

Novotel Avignon Centre

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great choice for visiting Avignon. It is right across from the walled city and it’s super easy to walk to restaurants, coffee and the main sites. It’s on a main road but the hotel is quiet. It’s a modern hotel with great amenities - the pool and bar are cute, the restaurant is good (Cesar salad with chicken was nice), and the rooms are clean. The air conditioning works well - it’s up to American standards, which is great when it’s hot. Incredibly helpful staff! We had a few issues in Avignon and they were so helpful and kind with things like helping us place local calls and change reservations, a very late check out, etc. Great English skills but they will let you practice your French if you want. Honestly, you won’t regret choosing this."

Apart'Hotel Sainte-Marthe

10/10 Excellent

"It was the smallest room, but I was happy that it had a kitchen. It also has a microwave and a kettle, which makes it convenient if you’re staying for a few nights."

Hotel Le Cloitre St Louis

10/10 Excellent

"Arriving at a very unassuming back street entrance the hotel interior was a very pleasant surprise and certainly lived up to our expectations. Staff were friendly, efficient and knowledgeable and we couldn’t have wished for a better reception. Bedroom was way above our expectations for the price we were paying and the breakfast was excellent, with lots of choice, not just the standard croissant and coffee. Would highly recommend it."
