Fantastic location
Very comfortable hotel and great location for exploring Avignon. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would have liked a balcony or street view, and options for tea and coffee in room were limited, with milk not replaced every day. Floor in bathroom became very slippery when wet.

It’s clearly an older building but refurbished. The room is okay. Beds are very comfortable. A drinking water machine is placed outside next to the elevator, which is very good when the tapwater taste metallic. The water pressure is fine, however, the shower is quite slow; it takes a long while to wash off the soap. The location could not be better, when it is right next to the Palace.

Best place to stay in Avignon
Very good hotel, would recommend! The location is unbeatable, right next to the Palais des Papes and right in the middle of the city center. The parking is super easy and close - but is a little expensive even with the discount. The air conditioning works well, even in almost 40°C heat. The highlight though was the reception staff! Very friendly and helpful

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The property is very well located ( that’s why I had chosen it at the first place!). However, it’s the only positive side I can mention for our stay. This hotel does NOT meet the standards of a 4 star hotel! The room was small, there was no garbage bin in the room, nor a phone for that matter ( to call the reception!). There is no little accessories that a 4 star MUST have ( small body lotion of slippers). Besides, there is no lobby per se in this hotel to sit and have a drink! All on all our stay was very disappointing! It’s a shame because I used to appreciate Mercure hotels but I’m not sure I’ll choose this hotel in the future since the standards are not reliable.

Quiet room located in the back of the hotel. Our window overlooked the Palais de Papes. Friendly staff. The hotel is located inside the Avignon city center and very convenient.
