| The best location of any hotel in Arles is the boast of Le Calendal, and it’s right. Bang next door to the Roman amphitheatre, the 18th-century building has been cleverly converted, keeping some exposed stone walls and beams. The well-designed bedrooms look pretty in colourful Provençal fabrics, while downstairs there are plenty of comfortable places to sit, including a quiet shady garden. |

THEY SAY: No hotel in Arles is more ideally located. Hotel Calendal is so close to the major roman sights and ruins that make Arles recognized throughout the world as a miniature Rome. Some of the Calendal’s bedrooms have plunging views on the Antic theater and Arles Amphitheater. This 17th century building, located in the historical center has changed over the years to become the most charming hotel of Arles. The ambience, the light, the garden, the colours, the fabrics…….. a paradise for all Provence admirers. The Calendal has 38 refurbished bedrooms, from a single room to family rooms. Each bedroom has its charming Provençal decor. Views vary; the bedrooms either overlook the Arles Amphitheater, the Antic Theater, the Calendal’s garden or the narrow typically Provençal streets of Arles. The decor, the light, the colours and fabrics have all been chosen to make you remember your stay in Arles and in Provence. The Hotel Calendal's accommodation makes you feel “Provençal”. The hotel is built around a wonderful garden. In summer, the garden brings you peace, calm, and a breeze of fresh air. Many of the essential ingredients of the Provençal landscape are present: a fig tree, an olive tree, a prune tree, palm trees and a 300 year old “Micocoulier”. The garden is the ideal place to enjoy a charming buffet breakfast, a light lunch or a refreshing drink.
