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."

Novotel Avignon Centre

10/10 Excellent
"Great location to the central station and views across to the historical city wall. Hotel is really good standard and offered an outdoor pool, pool table, lounge and games. Very family friendly. The listing didn’t specify that the indoor pool/sauna is an additional cost (€100 for 2 adults and 2 kids for 2 hours). It didn’t bother us as we could use the outdoor pool but worth noting in colder months. The room was really good standard and staff were very friendly. Water stations on each floor were very handy too."
