The room was very large which was great, but a tad worn. the decor was fun. The night desk staff person was very welcoming and a delight. There is a lovely cat outside. Parking onsite was convenient and the walkable location to La Cite was perfect!

Great family friendly hotel
The whole family had a great stay at this hotel, the rooms, pool and dining area were all spotless and the staff went out of their way to help whenever we had a question or a problem. My partner and I kept remarking how hard everyone was working, but still the staff were always friendly and helpful.

Good stay at a great location
Good hotel with a great location, Friendly staff, very good parking (secure) and an OK breakfast. The room was big and suites us well traveling 3 persons and a labrador. The bed was big and comfortable. New shower and bathroom. Just a 10 min walk to the Carcassonne old city. Can recommend it.

Close to the Cité but quiet too
Ideally situated hotel, a 7 minute flat walk to the Cité along a quiet road. Hotel is quirkily decorated to reflect Carcassonne's history and is very comfortable and quiet. They serve food in the evenings, although the night we decided to eat there the restaurant was closed due to a private booking and we had to get taxis to/from the city centre.... Breakfast is good with plenty of choices and eat inside or out on the terrace, got a well stocked bar that wasn't that expensive too. All in all a great hotel for visiting the Cité

Decent 2-3 star hotel on the outskirts of the city but only a 10 min walk to the Medieval city.
Staff were this hotels greatest asset. Building is tired and decorated by a person that clearly didn't know when to stop the Medieval theme.
Main road into the city .... not pleasant, in fact run-down.

Everyone was so nice and friendly. Pool was so nice and refreshing since it was practically 100 degrees f.
We ate dinner at the hotel and it was easy and very good. We were glad too since up in the Cité there's no AC and all outdoor seating. Rooms very clean! And the included breakfast with the fresh OJ machine is so yummy! Private safe parking with lots of shade a plus too!!

Perfect for short visit to old town Carcassonne
Excellent hotel for visit to Carcassonne old town with a 10-15 walk into the center. The room was small but very clean as was the hotel. Staff were very friendly even with our terrible French. Car park made it even easier.

Friendly helpful staff. Convenient location. Good value for money. Good buffet breakfast.
Restaurant should be open every evening. I was disappointed it was closed on Sunday evening.
Breakfast was busy (which was expected) however, if you introduce a system whereby guests can clear their own trays this would free up tables quicker.

Very good location, close (10min walk) to the old walled city of Carcassonne. Staff very friendly and helpful. Downside: aside from the old city, not of services (restaurants, etc) close to the hotel. Car is useful.

Perfect hotel to visit an amazing place
Clean hotel, nice pool, reasonably priced, very welcoming and helpful staff, 5 min walk to the medieval cité and 15 min walk to the centre with shops, cafes, etc. Our room was big enough, quiet and even looked into the ramparts - spent a couple of days from our 7 night stay at the hotel and next time I go back, I will definitely stay here again.
If I had to make one suggestion to the hotel, it would be to put at least one vegetarian dish on the menu. The whole area may be big meat eaters, but that doesn’t mean every visitor is.
In fact, if you are veggie then you will struggle here for options generally (can recommend Le Cachotier which is probably the only restaurant in Carcassonne with a vegan menu)

Good stay
Check in and staff fantastic , 5* .
Room ok , but shortage of pillows meant I personally didn’t sleep great , but bed comfortable.
Room space tight , not sure what the straw stools are for , change them , and the bed table isn’t good …
Room needs a fridge and AC looked at .
Pool is ok , beds great but 2 umbrellas fought over by people up and saving all day coming only for 1 hour 😡 that’s disrespectful of guests but 2 isn’t enough .
2 euros to hire towels that are tea towel size , pathetic really !
Breakfast good , fresh orange juice maker always broken , probably overworked or kids !
Selection choice good , and tasty but chaos , poorly set out in a row , means queue upon queue , sections would work better ..
Parking great , location is good for medieval city .

I have just returned from a three night stay at this hotel and was very pleased with it. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, happy to assist in any way. Every staff member that I spoke to had fluent English, which was appreciated. I did not have a car myself but I could always see plenty of available spaces in the car park.
The hotel surrounding area is quiet and felt quite safe for me, as a female walking around alone. It took me about 15 minutes to walk to the medieval city from the hotel, at an easy stroll pace. It is possible to walk to the more modern part of the city from the hotel, I did this once, but I mostly found it easier to get the number 2 bus which stops just by the hotel.
Food at the hotel was very good. Breakfast included a range of various pastries, cereals, yogurts, cooked meats and cheeses. There were no hot options, but a toaster was available for guest use, also a machine for cooking eggs. I also had evening meal at the hotel, which was very tasty and reasonably priced - 27 Euros inc. tax for two courses.
So to summarise, I would highly recommend this hotel.
