“Utterly romantic, utterly unique. A hotel nestled in the ramparts of Carcassonne's citadel and surrounded by beautiful gardens. A fairytale building with turrets, exquisite bedrooms, a Michelin star restaurant, and a swimming pool. A special spot for anyone who can afford it. ”

Hotel review

A rather enchanting medieval castle hotel with all the luxuries one can think of, yet it still retains all of its traditional charm. It evokes a sense of romanticism from a bygone era. From the private dining room, to the private terraces, the magical swimming pool, and Michelin restaurant, every detail has been paid much attention. The variety of accommodation caters well to families, groups and couples. A very luxurious hotel.

Hotel de la Cite, Carcassonne Review

This neo-Gothic hotel is "like a little medieval castle," in a fortified-wall town near the foothills of the Pyrenees...
