Absolutely spectacular rooms, delightful breakfast, and excellent location. One of the best hotels…read moreI've ever visited. We were lucky to get a room up under the eaves; out the bathroom window we saw the old courtyard a few hundred years old, and out the bedroom window we saw the Roman amphitheater a few thousand years old. Both windows have screens (probably inspired by the ever-present pigeons, rather than mosquitoes); with both open, the breeze flowed through our airy aerie. Breakfast is well done here --- a large spread of sweets including baguettes, pain au chocolat, apricots, prunes, hazelnuts, and croissants; savory including 4-5 types of cheese and some sliced meat. The breakfast host takes orders for coffees (including decaf) and eggs (the 5-minute was nicely soft-boiled, perhaps a little runny; the table next to us got a 10-minute egg.) The orange juice is fresh squeezed. (There was some annoying street noise from motor scooters and rap-playing cars zooming up the curving rue du Cloître, but not terrible. More entertainingly, there were a series of children's dance classes over at the amphitheater, starting with elementary school and proceeding through high school.) There's a second-floor terrace that promises drinks pulled by the front-desk receptionist if you dial 9, although we were unable to reach them when we tried; also a good place for a small picnic and a sunset. Truly spectacular.

The tile work in our room and bathroom was so beautiful and yet unique and modern at the same time!

Wish we were back there now!

If you are looking for an Intercontinental or Hilton, look elseware. Staff is great, making you feel welcome. Beautiful old-world lobby with great decor and beamed ceilings.

We had 2 rooms and we definitely recommend this hotel.

I was really disappointed on arriving at this hotel, and am still surprised that it is rated so…read morehighly on TripAdvisor and was recommended in the Lonely Planet travel guide. The place is, quite frankly, a dump. It was easily the worst hotel that I stayed in during my two-week trip to France. For one thing, there's no parking at the hotel and it's very difficult to get to. You have to park in a parking garage that's about a ten-minute walk away, then drag your bags up winding streets that climb higher up the hill until you finally reach the hotel. Then the ultimate disappointment: no elevator. We had to drag our bags up three flights of narrow stairs. By the time we got to the room, we were sweaty and exhausted. Then, there's the room itself. It was mostly brown, clearly old and worn, with a brown carpet and dusty corners. The cheap, thin towels had mysterious yellow stains on them. The wifi didn't work, and the whole place just felt run-down. And then our breakfast. We went to the breakfast room and had to wait ten minutes before anyone helped us. When they finally did, they brought a disappointing assortment of mediocre food. There was no choice whatsoever about what we were served, and none of it was very good. I'm definitely never coming back to this hotel, and I may even write to Lonely Planet to complain that they recommended it. It was so disappointing and the real lowlight of our trip.

Here's why: WiFi is a little slow, often glacial. Inner lock on our room doesn't work. We had to use keys given to us to lock it. Getting into shower stall was a bit tight, although it's nicely decorated. Breakfast buffet didn't look appetizing so we skipped it. And they don't have a freezer so there was no ice available.

This was our bike tour's hotel for one night in Arles, the town made famous by Van Gogh. Located a…read moreshort distance from the shore, it's central to the whole downtown Arles area, and is right across the street from the Musee Reattu, hence its name. While the building is quite ancient, they'd made a lot of modern updates and it had one of the most gorgeous patios ever. Our room was spacious with a really cute bathroom. They had one of the best free breakfasts we experienced during our whole trip, with a boiled-egg station, which I hadn't seen before or since. Plus the most amazing croissants, wow. That said, there were a few issues which prevent me from giving them a higher rating: - They went a little crazy with the lavender room fragrance and we were seriously gassed out for most of evening--we had to leave our window open in hopes of dissipating it but it stayed pretty strong the whole time. - The floor of our room was sloped, and the person whose bed was in the sloped corner had the worst night's sleep ever. - The bike storage was on the 2nd floor, and it wasn't easy hauling our rather heavy hybrid bikes up and down the stairs (granted, this is a very specialized problem--most of the guests probably won't have to deal with this) I think this place would be a good value for most travelers and worth a look. STEPH JUDGEMENT: Conveniently located with cute decor and decent amenities, but has some caveats.

I enjoyed the nice breakfast, smiling faces, pleasant service and lovely courtyard. Don't hesitate to order a bottle of wine and sit in the courtyard and read a book. Yes the beds could be updated to a more comfortable mattress and a few little things could be repaired but the place has tons of charm. Also I'd recommend that they use a little less lavender fragrance. The other issues was that our neighbor was smoking in their room but I dint hold that against the hotel as it was against policy. Great service and great value!
