We had the largest hotel room I've ever encountered in Europe and it was very reasonably priced. The grounds around the hotel are beautifully landscaped. The only negative is that it is extremely difficult to find. But once you get there it is heavenly. They also have a truly gourmet restaurant there. We had dinner there one evening on the recommendation of some other American hotel guests we met. That had to be one of the best recommendations we ever received. The entrees were superb and the desserts were truly to die for. What a wonderful experienced we had at Magnaneraie.

Elegant, Historic, and Ideally Located--A Memorable Stay in Avignon…read more We spent a few nights at Hôtel La Mirande and really loved the experience. If you're into rich history, beautiful decor, and a central location, this place is hard to beat. The best part of our stay was definitely the atmosphere and location. You're literally next to the Palais des Papes and walking distance to everything in the historic center. The hotel itself is like staying in a French time capsule--gorgeous antiques, serene courtyards, and a feeling of old-world sophistication throughout. Our room wasn't one of the ultra-grand ones (no canopy bed or soaring ceilings), but it was still large, elegant, and very comfortable. The bed and pillows were soft and cozy, and the room was spotless. Service was warm and helpful overall, although we did have one hiccup--after requesting a bucket of ice to chill a bottle of champagne, no one ever brought it, even after two calls. We eventually brought the bottle to the bar ourselves, and they were happy to help. Not a dealbreaker, but a surprising lapse for a hotel of this caliber. One thing we'd suggest improving? The towels. They looked beautiful and high-end, but they weren't soft at all. Upgrading to plusher, spa-quality towels would bring the comfort level up to match the rest of the experience. Safety-wise, we felt secure the entire time, but future guests should know that there are quite a few homeless individuals in the area. It didn't feel dangerous, just something to be aware of while walking at night. Bottom line: If you're looking for elegance, location, and a taste of historic France, Hôtel La Mirande is a standout choice. We'd love to come back--hopefully next time in one of those iconic high-ceiling rooms!

Loved the service, the room, and eating breakfast on our room's terrace each morning. I highly…read morerecommend this place as your stay when you come to Avignon.

Our car broke down and we ended up staying here. It was the only good thing that happened…read more First things first. Our room was large. The beds were comfortable. It had a flat Tv, with lots of channels. There was AC we could control, and a large fridge. The fridge by the way, wasn't in our room on arrival. We'd asked if we could put some things in their fridge and five minutes later the Landlady bought up our own fridge. On her own! The bathroom was an older model, with shower/bath unit, but everything was really clean. We even bathed our kids in the bath, which is a first for us at a hotel.(as we're a bit fussy) The breakfast was great too. Every table received a large basket of breads and croissants. The coffee was good, and my wife liked her musli and yougurt. But here's the important part! I'd hurt my foot a few days before, swimming with the kids. And it had become infected. It had swollen up, was weeping and was very painful. The landlady saw this and called the Doctor for me (sadly I can't speak French), who then came to the hotel. I had to go to a hospital, which was about thirty kilometers away. She even offered to pick me up, when I was finished. The hospital proscribed me some antibiotics, which she then drove my wife to get at the chemist. She even bandaged my foot! The Landlord helped get me my money back from the Ambulance company who kept hanging up on me. One call from him and I had my money in my hand ten minutes later, no joke. Even their receptionist helped me out with a phone charger when my one broke. She gave me one for free. Like I said we'd broken down after a three week holiday and we had loads of luggage, which we had to take out of the car, and they let us store it in their living room!! And they were great with the kids too, even letting them chose a treat from their vending machine. And there were a thousand other things that will most likely come to mind after I've posted this. I've lived in a few countries and I've visited a few more. I have never received so much hospitality and friendliness as I did over those three days at the Hotel. All I can do is say thank you and write this review, for the whole team at Hôtel Du Centre and a especially for our good samaritan the Landlady. I hope someone takes the time and trouble to read this review, and then stays there. I truly recommend it. We weren't planing at staying at Hôtel Du Centre but I'm glad that we did.
