Regina Hotel

Regina Hotel

8/10 Good
"The staff are lovely and try to answer all of your questions. They even played along as I tried to speak French. They will let you store your luggage, if you arrive early or are leaving late. The location is perfect. It is a straight 800 metre walk from Avignon Centre train station. You are 100 metres from the main square and 250 from the Palace of the Popes. The breakfast is very nice. It is buffet style with fresh bread and pastries, juice, yogurt and a nice coffee machine that makes many types of drinks. The rooms are tired, but the beds and bedding is very comfortable. It’s an old French hotel, so the elevator is tiny and there are lots of stairs. A genuinely nice spot."

"Thank you! Everything was perfect! My only suggestion would be to replace carpet in King suite. Many stains…but other than that, excellent from staff to food and amenities!"

"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."
