Garde-Colombe Vacations from $2,036

Friendly, helpful staff. Enjoyed the pool facilities and breakfast al fresco Will return and let friends know

Excellent location, lovely grounds and well appointed room

15 minute walk into Avignon and about the same into Villeneuve. Everyone probably knows about Avignon but Villeneuve is the nicer and quieter location to spend an evening with many top class restaurants - try Flo's! The property is basic but provides a good breakfast and an excellent roof top area for panoramic views and chilling outside. Some of the rooms are very small but we were luckily offered a free upgrade. A rail line runs next to the property and so could disturb if you are a lighter sleeper.

The hotel is nice for a quick stay. I don't think they are used to an extended stay. For a week there is not a lot to do in the village. Although the village is beautiful. The train is close and easy to access for other day trips but the times are not good. last train is 8:00 out and 10 back from avignon for example. If you are doing the festival it is not good for this reason. The heat requires that you take later trips into the festival and the times of the plays require that you stay out later. The staff speaks some English but not a lot. The breakfast is okay and they leave it out so that you can have a later breakfast than is scheduled. the food at lunch and at night is good. They don't want you to rinse any clothes in the room so you have to take the clothes to the cleaners. the air conditioning is real which is great because it was a lot hotter than we thought it would be.
