This hotel is an old historical church. As such, some of the rooms have been fit to the area available. Our room was small with sloped ceiling. We could not stand completely upright in the shower. However, the staff where very helpful and courteous. The location was within the walls of the town. We also spent two nights in the "sister hotel" of the Hotel Clotre St. Louis - The Hotel Grand Avignon. This hotel is only one block away and much more in keeping with American standards. Hotel Clotre St. Louis is very nice - just to small for our taste if spending multiple nights.

The public areas of the hotel are very nice. The breakfast, while expensive, is very good. I liked that coffee and tea were out and available for many refills, so that we did not have to bother the wait staff for refills to overcome our jetlag. I would definitely stay here again, but I would ask for one of the rooms in the old part of the hotel, as the new, modern rooms, are a bit of a disappointment for such a beautiful historic building. The hotel is convenient to the bus that runs from the TGV, and travelers without too much luggage should skip the taxi and take the bus. The hotel parking lot is very convenient, for those with cars.

The ambiance of the entry courtyard was well worth the four-star rating, and the design of the rooms, public and private, new and old, was exceptional. What a jewel. What a beautiful, serene find--out of the main traffic of the tourist area around the Palais des Papes.

Your service was excellent; we just wish we could have stayed longer. One night was truly not enough. Merci beaucoup! Lyse Carignan

Strange place - however, the setting is very serene and old world. The secure parking is very useful but relies on the staff actually answering the buzzers you have to press going OUT as well as IN. Our record over a week was very patchy, waiting several minutes sometimes. The buttons on the system were a bit battered too and it was not always clear if they were working. Generally we found the reception staff indifferent to us and unwelcoming. Usually no smile or even greeting as we came and went. Good example was on arrival. We checked in and were given the room keys. The receptionist then turned away as if I was supposed to find the lift and rooms by telepathy. I asked to be shown up and it was just as well as the lift was not 'obvious'. The rooms in the old wing were enormous but all bedroom, with tiny bathroom - very nice finish in room and air-con but odd slightly shabby bathroom. Shower sprayed hugely over the floor so we only used it to wash hair in the bath. The hotel advertises a bar - bit of an exaggeration. There is a room with a 'bar' about 4m long and a few seats but you have to ring the bell for service and it is not a very cheery place. Never saw anyone use it in a week. We tried once but no one answered the bell so we went out!! Fortunately you are close to the main street with excellent bars ansd restaurants abounding. The lift in the old wing is hot in the sun but using the stairs means you have to walk through the restaurant or the two meeting rooms to get out - strange layout. Roof swimming pool was nice in the summer heat. This hotel has a great setting and good potential. If the staff had shown any interest in us whatsoever, I would recommend it but I don't really want to.

For a restraurant in France, this one was sub-par. We have come to expect the usual high quality French bread...for example. This was something more like a Pepperidge Farm roll...with the idustrial feel and textrure. A disappointment. We should have eaten at the Bistro on the corner.

A super hotel within the city walls of Avignon; an oasis. The service was outstanding and I recommend the hotel unreservedly.

We reserved 2 rooms for me and my family. The hotel show in the web pages a nice room in the old part of the building but they accomodated us in a new part very cold and uncharming and also noisy. We felt deceived.How they think we could know that there is an old and a new building if they don´t say in the web pages??
