Avignon Grand Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Bom café da manhã e staff atencioso. Quarto grande e confortável com algumas coisas básicas a melhorar: - não há dois racks para as 2 malas normalmente utilizadas por ocupantes de um quarto duplo (espaço não faltaria) - não há tomadas disponíveis na cabeceira da cama para carregar um celular ou outro dispositivo elétrico (só se desligar o abajur, necessário pelo motivo a seguir) - não há interruptores para a iluminação geral do quarto próximo à cabeceira As instruções para chegada ao estacionamento podem ser mais detalhadas."

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful old hotel with an amazing history of guest including Napoleon. Maintained to a high standard. Nice breakfast and even better evening meal in the main restaurant. You need to book dinner as they do not have many tables. The staff were amazingly helpful and polite. A great stay and perfect location for site seeing the Avignon."
