Rarely have I had the pleasure to stay in a superb hotel within an ancient walled city. Carcassonne is a walled city like no other. Although it was restored in the 19th century (with particular attention paid to architectural accuracy) Carcassonne looks very much as it would have at the height of its 11th century glory - it was already...

I stayed during the off-season when the hotel was largely empty. However, the room was excellent: comfortable and well-apportioned. The library bar was a particular treat, although I regret to this day that I did not eat in the restaurant. More

We stayed here for 2 nights as part of our honeymoon. We parked at the gate of the medieval city, and someone from the hotel came to pick us up. The drive into the walled city and to the hotel is a blast and worth the experience on its own, but when we got to the hotel we were further... More

As I'm very interested in history, Carcassonne was heaven for me, as was the hotel. The personnel was extremely friendly from the lady at the parking gate outside the wall to everyone inside the hotel. The only disappointment was that the hotel's famous restaurant is closed on Tuesday evenings, which I hadn't noticed when I booked the room. We were... More
