We had a lovely stay at Central Hotel in Avignon. The staff were very nice and helpful throughout our visit. Our room was spacious, the bed was comfortable, and daily housekeeping was a great bonus. The hotel was spotlessly clean and in an excellent location—just a short walk from the main train station. Highly recommended!

The bed was very comfortable, and I had a view of the inner courtyard. The lift helped with my luggage, but inside there was still some steps. The hotel doesn’t have that extremely fresh feel, but it was definitely clean and comfortable. I’d stay again.

The laundry wasn’t working but the staff was helpful finding a laundromat close by. Also the website said it had a fitness center and parking but here is no fitness center and parking was not at the hotel. The roads close at noon for cars so we had to park, walk in to the hotel and then go back out to park offsite and walk back with our suitcases. Not a great start to our stay but it wasn’t the worst.

Paid for a "superior" room. Right next door to the lobby, noisy, 2 small windows with no privacy, pungent smell of paint and chemicals in the room. To avoid at all costs

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
On the positive side: reception was quick, efficient, and friendly. The location is super convenient for everything worth doing in Avignon. The room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable. My biggest negative was that the room reaked of smoke. I don't know if some previous guest ignored the advisement of no smoking, or it's just saturated in the carpets, but it was kind of gross. The second is that i almost canceled my reservation when i was in Avignon last week and noticed a hub of bike delivery guys and scruffy unhoused looking folk hanging around the hotel. Fortunately the little courtyard creates a welcoming and calming barrier from the street. Overall, great spot.

Good overall experience

Overall a good experience. The only thing about the hotel that I did not realize: it is five stories tall. My room was on the very top floor and no elevator. If you are older or have a heavy bag, be certain you can get a room on the lower floors. The location is excellent if you are coming by train and it was a pleasant walk to tons of nice restaurants.

Breakfast is below average, bad location, homeless people congregating around hotel, air conditioning malfunctioned, water pressure in the shower was very low and you should wait for several min for water to become hot. Hotel double charged us for the stay and owner refused to issue a refund.
