    The bed was very firm. While the room had a nice bathtub, the stopper was removed so you could only shower. We were at the end of a hallway, and the light switch was at the end, so you had to walk down a dark hallway and fish for light switch. Motion detection could fix that.

    It’s proximity to parking and attractions.

    Entrance was a little hard to find but our taxi driver pointed us in the right direction.

    Perfect location for visiting the Palais des Papes, shops, markets and restaurants. A good size room and very friendly, helpful staff.

    The double bed was two singles together so it had a big bump in the middle.

    Its location is fantastic and the outlook from my room was great. It has an elevator.

    Unfortunately the drain to the bathtub was stuck so we were unable to drain it after using. The two chairs for the small table in the room were ready to break. We informed the staff and they were very responsive and said they would take care of those issues right away. The main reason we gave this hotel a rating of 7 is because of the way it advertised “Parking” under PROPERTY FACILITIES (see photo). We assumed, incorrectly, that parking was included. The only way to know you had to pay was by drilling down to “PROPERTY POLICIES” where it does clearly state that it costs €14 BUT that the hotel would give you a 20% discount on the parking. The parking IS very conveniently located with a pedestrian access just in front of the hotel. However, the cost was €19.30 and the front desk refused to give us the 20% discount because the “patron” wasn’t there.

    We had a very nice, quiet room in the style of the old buildings in the area. There was also a small table with two chairs, a TV and a large, clean bathtub.

    The place needs a little upkeep. The bathroom mirror was duct taped together. One of the two sinks in the bathroom the faucet didn’t work. The second sink did though so not the end of the world. The hot water didn’t work in the shower on the first day but they did end up fixing it. We never got really hot water but definitely warm and comfortable. Also just simple burnt out lightbulbs should be changed.

    The location was phenomenal with a beautiful view of the popes palace

    The restaurant was appalling !! Staff were more interested in talking to their friends and forgot about us sitting in the dark ! waited an hour for a main course that turned up burnt, but to be fair they changed it and didn't charge us. Breakfast was equally a disaster and way too many things to list.

    Hotel was lovely and the lady at reception was amazing and very helfpul!

    The hotel is situated in an old building which we loved as it complemented the historical surroundings but some people may find that it lacked the mod cons of a new hotel.

    Perfect location and very nice staff. The hotel was very clean and situated in a historic building which had a lot of character.

    The shower tabs in the bathroom were a bit worn out, but it's only a 3 star hotel, so not a reason to complain.

    The view is priceless! I advise you to get the room with the view of the Papal Palace, you won't regret it!
