Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be located conveniently right outside the old city wall at the Novotel. The rooms had some drawbacks like a slight drain smell and no milk for coffee, but the ambient temperature was fine during my stay. The service, while polite, lacked a bit in problem-solving skills. The location offered a great blend of tranquility and quick access to the bustling Rue de la République. Dining had its highs and lows, with good quality offerings but sometimes unclean tables and missing plates. Overall, a mixed experience with some notable positives and negatives.
The hotel's location is very good, right next to the walled city and within walking distance to the center. The room overlooking the old town wall was nice and spacious, although some rooms overlooked a roof. The service lacked some skills in customer interaction but improved when we needed to leave our suitcases. The dining choice was described as unacceptable for a 4-star European hotel, with a bit of a scrum, although the breakfast selection was substantial. The facilities were adequate, offering room service and tours/ticket assistance.
The hotel is quite spacious, great for exploring Avignon as you wouldn't want to stay holed up in your room all day. The breakfast was decent, nothing extraordinary. The room faced the main street, was large with 2 bedrooms and a living room but far from the lift.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, perfect for families, but having no windows and needing to vent the air conditioner outside was a bit inconvenient. The service was very helpful and accommodating, although it fell slightly short of a 4-star standard. The location was great, being close to the city center and convenient for transportation, but the dining options were lackluster for a European 4-star hotel.
The hotel is perfectly situated opposite the city entrance, offering extremely big and comfortable rooms with a wide variety of foods. The spiral staircase leading up to the bedrooms adds a unique touch. The service is top-notch, with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. The location is brilliant, near both the city center and the train station, making it ideal for exploring Avignon. While the dining options are serviceable, they might come off as slightly overpriced. Overall, a great value for the money with convenient access to all Avignon has to offer.
The hotel was nice with a spacious and quiet room featuring a balcony, but we were not happy with being interrupted several times during our stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of great and not-so-great experiences. The rooftop pool was big and the room was huge and comfy, but the dining options were limited. The service was unbelievably helpful, though they could use more staff during busy check-out times. The location was convenient, close to the center, and the facilities were satisfactory.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the hotel staff truly went above and beyond to maintain cleanliness. The room layout with 2 double beds, a small lounge area, and a bathroom met our needs perfectly. However, the rooms could do with some renovation despite the staff's commendable efforts in keeping them spotless. The nice breakfast was a great touch as well.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious but in need of some modern upgrades, although they provided privacy and quiet surroundings. The service was a bit hit-and-miss, with some staff being extremely helpful and friendly while others lacked communication skills. The location was superb, right next to the train station and close to the main sights, yet just outside the old town. The dining experience was varied, with some issues but also satisfactory options available. The facilities were decent overall.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were bright, airy, and offered a lovely view of the garden area. They were spacious, clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable overnight stay. The service was top-notch, very welcoming, and accommodating. The location was excellent, just outside the city wall but surprisingly peaceful at night. The dining experience was a bit limited, but overall, it was a great stay.
The hotel is conveniently located near the city center and opposite the entrance to the city. The oversized rooms offer plenty of space for a comfortable stay, although I didn't get to try the pool on the terrace. The breakfast was satisfactory, neither exceptional nor disappointing.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were a bit uncomfortable due to the heat but had a nice layout with a separate lounge and bedroom plus a good two-part bathroom. The service was generally polite and attentive, although there were some language barriers. The location was convenient, offering a private and pleasant stay close to the city center. Dining options were limited and not exceptional. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully decorated with cozy beds and sofas, some even had balconies or patios, making them the largest I've experienced in France. The service was very helpful and attentive, making sure everything was perfect. The location couldn't have been better, right next to the Avignon Train station and just outside the city walls. The dining was good, though the food selection could use some improvement. Overall, a wonderful hotel with great qualities but a few minor downsides.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were average, but the lack of windows only with french doors for air ventilation made it less than ideal. The service was excellent overall, with friendly and helpful staff, although they did forget to return the bathrobes. The location was convenient, close to the center with easy access by foot and near transportation hubs. The dining experience was decent but not outstanding, with necessary minimum options for the price. Overall, a mixed experience but with some positive highlights.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was very spacious with a sitting area facing the railway tracks, although I struggled to cool it down to my liking. Despite this, the room was comfortable and nicely furnished. The service was friendly and efficient, but there were some delays in clearing breakfast tables. The location was convenient, within walking distance of the railway station and close to the city center. The dining experience had its ups and downs with a nice variety of options but challenges in keeping up with large groups.
