Avignon is a Provençal city surrounded by ramparts, known for its medieval heritage and its role in the history of the papacy. The old town is easy to explore on foot, with narrow lanes, shaded squares and stone façades. The atmosphere suits visitors who want to combine cultural visits, urban walks and breaks on a terrace. Hôtel de Garlande is on a pedestrian street in the historic centre.

The Palais des Papes, a vast Gothic palace that bears witness to the popes’ presence in Avignon in the 14th century, is 300 m away on foot. Pont Saint-Bénézet, made famous by the song, is 500 m away; a visit lets you see its arches and the Rhône. Place de l’Horloge and Saint-Pierre Basilica are among the landmarks of the old town. Avignon-Centre train station is 550 m away, making it convenient to arrive without a car. Nîmes-Alès-Camargue-Cévennes Airport is 36 km away; the pedestrian street does not allow parking in front of the hotel.

Spring and autumn bring pleasant temperatures for exploring the streets and monuments, while summer is livelier and the days are hot. In July, the Festival d’Avignon turns the city into a stage for performances in theatres and in the streets. For a cultural day out, you can visit the Palais des Papes in the morning, cross the squares of the historic centre and spend the afternoon at the bridge and museums. The markets and shopping streets also offer a glimpse of everyday life in Provence.
