Vaison-la-Romaine stretches between the lower town, the Roman bridge and the Haute Ville, on the first Provençal slopes of the Vaucluse. The hotel is on Place du Vieux Marché, among the old lanes overlooked by the château. The neighbourhood is easy to explore on foot: stone façades, sloping passages and views over the rooftops form the setting of this small town, known for its extensive ancient remains and medieval heritage.

The château de Vaison-la-Romaine overlooks the old town from its promontory, while the Roman bridge links the two banks of the Ouvèze. The archaeological sites of Puymin and la Villasse let you explore the remains of a Gallo-Roman city, with streets, houses and public spaces unearthed at the sites. Sainte-Marie-de-l’Assomption Cathedral and its cloister complete the heritage tour. Further afield, Mont Ventoux draws hikers and cyclists; the Côtes du Rhône wine-growing landscapes also lend themselves to excursions to surrounding villages.

Spring and autumn are pleasant seasons for walking through the lanes and visiting the ancient sites without the intense summer heat. In summer, hot days make it worth planning visits for the morning, then enjoying the swimming pool or a terrace during the cooler hours. You can combine the old town, Roman remains and an excursion to the landscapes around Mont Ventoux in one day. A car makes it easier to visit the vineyards and villages of the Vaucluse.
