Avignon is a Provençal city on the Rhône, known for its walled historic centre and medieval heritage. The hotel is in the Courtine district, south-west of the old centre, in an area associated with rail travel and the city's activities. This location suits travellers who prioritise access to the TGV station and want to reach historic sites by car or public transport.

Avignon TGV station is 650 m away; Avignon-Centre station, which serves the old town, is 2 km away. The Palace of the Popes overlooks the square of the same name and bears witness to the period when Avignon was the popes' residence. Pont Saint-Bénézet, made famous by the song “Sur le pont d’Avignon”, offers another glimpse of the city's past. The ramparts and their historic gates frame the streets of the centre. Musée Calvet and Collection Lambert offer art and history collections.

You can start your visit at the Palace of the Popes, then continue through the narrow streets and squares of the centre before walking along the Rhône. In summer, Avignon hosts its famous theatre festival and the city is especially lively; it is worth planning your journeys and visits in advance. Spring and early autumn often bring milder temperatures for exploring the ramparts and old districts. The TGV station also makes it easy to take trips to the towns and landscapes of Provence.
