Hôtel Le Donjon - Coeur de la Cité Médiévale
An absolutely magical stay. The location is incredible, like something out of a fairy tale. Staff were warm, friendly, polite and welcoming. Room was spacious and clean. Breakfasts were excellent. I went in winter so the old city was quiet at night, but there were still a couple of great restaurants ...

Hotel de la Cité Carcassonne - MGallery Collection
The hotel is beautiful and the area around the hotel is also very pretty. The famous michelin restaurant was terrible, my food pigeon was really bad. Some other things were good, not for the price.
