Search Best Hotels in Villeneuve-les-Avignon

When we first decided to spend a few days in Avignon, we began looking at hotels within the walled city but could not find one to our liking, with character and availability. Once we expanded our search to the other side of the river, and Villeneuve-les Avignon, we discovered a quieter area and this amazing Hotel de l'Atelier - it was a true gem! With the idiosyncrasies of any 300 year old building (sometimes crooked floors and off kilter doors) it also has all the historic charm of a building of that era. If this isn't your thing, by all means book a room at the Holiday Inn for twice the price and pretend you are in any city anywhere in the world. But if you want to feel like you are truly in Provence, this is the perfect spot! True, the hotel does not have an elevator, but it does have staff that did not let us carry any bags upstairs to the third floor ourselves...or downstairs again when we left! True, the hotel fixtures are a bit dated but oh the history that shines through!! The important things worked with no problems: modern plumbing, air conditioning, cleaning services... We have never felt as welcomed in a large luxury hotel, as we did at Hotel de l”Atelier! And let me add that the overall pervading fragrance of this hotel is butter!!! They (and by they I mean the owner and almost all the staff who work there) bake all their own amazing breakfast creations (apple tarts, croissants, coffee cake...about seven or eight different things every morning) from scratch daily!!!! Cappuccino? No problem! Perfect soft boiled eggs? They got you!! After spending several days wandering the walled city, taking in the history, we were always relieved to return to this sanctuary in Villeneuve-les-Avignon. We will always be happy we made this choice and hope to return one day!

Great hotel on good location with fantastic breakfast. Hotel is just up the hill in a lovely small town of Villeneuve just across the river from Avignon. The small town is perfect with restaurants and a small grocery store. We brought our bikes which was a perfect setup. The Hotel is beautiful set up with a very spacious approach, multiple ground floor common rooms, a massive garden and a huge pool area (which was closed due to cold temperatures in April). Breakfast was really good, not sure what the other reviews were complaining about.

I did a good amount of research before finding this hotel. My priority is since this was in the middle of the most horrible heatwave was air-conditioning. This hotel fully delivered. While it was 42° outside for 104°F. My room was nice and cool the entire time. My second most important criteria was strong Wi-Fi. This hotel offered very good speed. It is fiber net work therefore about 100 MB per second at the time of this writing. It allowed me to do my work with no problem. The room was nice and clean. Most of all it was very functional. Last, but not least this hotel has the NICEST staff. Lovely conversations over breakfast. Guillaume speaks English perfectly although since I speak French our conversations were mostly in French. I highly recommend this hotel.

A warm welcome to our arrival by Rosalie who was waiting for us with a pleasant refreshment in this beautiful special hotel from the 18th in the heart of the old town Our very spacious room in modern decor with view of the palace of the papa seduced us with its delicate little attentions sucking breakfast !! A very careful hostess and always careful of our well being it is sure we will come back!! Thanks for this pleasant stay Severine and Franck

This hotel is located within the city walls pedestrianise area but is assessable by car as the entrance to the car park from the main road. Very close to all major tourist location. The bed is comfortable with a decent shower pressure. The breakfast is good with a good variety of hot and cold food selections.

Awesome antique hotel, located in the old town gate, very close to the main attractions and business districts, valet parking, very warm and welcoming service. The hotel is very charming, and the afternoon tea in the courtyard is very comfortable. It can be said to be the first choice for visiting Avignon.

One of my best experiences in Avignon, the hotel has an amazing location, comfortable rooms and a delicious breakfast. I visited many historical places near the hotel. Places like Post Saint Bénézet and the Pope's Palace. I just had to walk around and enjoy the peace of the area.

Small room, which was probably dependent on the type of room booked, the description was so drastic but not to draw where practically only bed took the room and between bed and wall at the foot you just passed through. No cups or glasses in the room, the pipe water (no bottle of water for the guest) had to be taken directly from the hand! at the washing basin. The bathroom was clean and completely OK. But the wacky door to the room was unappetitely old-flecky. The lift was terribly old and you were afraid to stay sticked. The breakfast room was very nice, but when 2 more guests came to us, they had to set up new coffee for them because the cane was empty, which took, also the few plates of salami and cheese had almost eaten from us - the poor guests after us. The evening before we wanted to take dinner in this moodful room, which wasn't going, just in another restaurant room (also ok, but not so beautiful), but the next evening we saw guests at the big beautiful fireplace in the “breaking room” eat there.. I find that without explanation a bad service. in the early evening. Because of the lift and lack of comfort in the room, I would book somewhere else at the next trip despite the location directly at the Pope Palace.

The location is a little bit from the train station, it takes 20 minutes to walk. Really close to the church But it feels like Mercure is everywhere, be careful what goes wrong.

The hotel is next to the central square of Avignon, which is the most central part of the old city. The surrounding area is very lively and there are many dining options. From the train station, cross the road to enter the gate of the old city and walk straight for a while. The hotel is hidden in a pile of open-air restaurants, and it is not easy to find. The hotel is small, the elevator is small, and the corridors are tortuous. We live on the top floor. The room is quite large and the view is very good, overlooking the square. Go out and turn right a few steps to the Papal Palace, which is very convenient.
