Ibis Avignon Centre Gare

Everything was just fine!

Everything was just fine.

Excellent evening team, very kind and warm welcome from the evening team. Very comfortable clean room, good bed. The restaurant downstairs serves good food and wine.

Check-in staff was wonderfully friendly and informative. The room had a convenient long counter for spreading out my bag and laptop (internet access was good). The hotel is virtually attached to Gare d'Avignon Centre which was incredibly convenient for me (and, surprisingly, not at all noisy). It is about a 7-minute walk to the Tourist Information office within the rampart walls of old Avignon. I did not have breakfast so I cannot speak to that. There is a restaurant onsite with a limited menu but I found my dinner there convenient and good. Apparently there are several Ibis hotels in the area, so be sure you know which one you want before booking.

The room was comfortable for one but it might be kind of tight for two. The hotel is pet-friendly (good) but my next door neighbour's little dog was barking fairly continuously at 7:30 am (not so good). I was up anyway, so it wasn't really a problem for me, and I didn't experience any other issues with noise. This is not a criticism of the hotel, just a point to remember: Avignon has two train stations. If you come in on the TGV from Paris, you will want to get a train ticket that connects you to Gare d'Avignon Centre or taxi or Uber over to the hotel from the TGV station. Train may be cheaper.

Location, staff, breakfast (had reasonable selection).

Facilities are very basic
