The location in the heart of the medieval city, where modern life stops at the gates and a world of cobbles, crooked streets, and hotel porters transports you back in time.
Afternoon drinks in the tranquil leafy courtyard, far from the bustle of the streets.
The historic, yet trendy, design throughout, with medieval iron chandeliers casting light over tasteful modern art on the ancient stone walls.
Having the generous buffet breakfasts included, served up in the cosy stone-walled breakfast room.
Experience life as a medieval citizen with all the comforts of modern luxury
Carcassonne is known as a city of festivities, constantly bustling with tourists, buskers, and some of the best medieval performers in all of France, yet once your feet leave the medieval quarter cobbles and take you through the doors of the Best Western Hôtel le Donjon ****, the atmosphere is one of decadence and calm. The hotel revels in its medieval roots, with carved wood panelling and original stone walls softly lit with faux wall torches or cast-iron chandeliers.
In the restaurant, Le Donjon, modernity and medieval coexist peacefully, from surreal paintings hung on rough stone walls to traditional Mediterranean and South-France recipes cooked with modern flair. The award-winning La Barbacane outdoes its fellow restaurant by featuring beautiful stained-glass windows in its elegant setting, with the gorgeous night view of turrets and towers lit up, ensuring you a magical evening.
Before your eyes get too accustomed to the moody medieval feel, however, the hotel soon dazzles you with colour and light. The rooms are all light in colour and style, while being heavy on comfort and top quality services. Outside, medieval rooftops and buttresses bake golden in the sun. Take a moment to enjoy these rays on the hotel’s leafy patio before you venture out into the bustling streets, savouring the calm and quiet of modern-medieval life at the Best Western Hôtel le Donjon ****...
