We stayed in a Jr Suite and it was a great size for the 2 of us. The bed was comfortable, the front desk was helpful and kind, and the air conditioning actually cooled our room in the height of a heat wave in August! The proximity to restaurants and shopping can’t be beat, as well as historical sights and tours. We took the train from Avignon to Avignon Center and walked (pulling luggage along) to the hotel. The breakfast was impressive, included eggs and bacon/sausage and pancakes.. as well as pastries and fresh loaves of bread for toast, fresh fruits, cheese, ham, olives.. all extras! The square is right out the door, as is the Opera House and many museums. We felt very safe navigating the streets of Avignon. We took advantage of the Petite Train to tour around the area, a nice way to get off your feet and see some sights, however not a lot of information is shared on the tour. Would suggest joining an early morning walking tour, as there is so much history in Avignon you’ll learn much more. As for the hotel.. the location was perfect. The hotel is pet friendly, though we didn’t travel with ours.. and there was no odor or pet hair visible in our room or along the hallway/elevator. Highly recommend Hotel de l’Horloge.
