"We had an amazing time at Hotel Le Donjon!
We got a taxi from Carcassonne airport to the city gates and then walked to the hotel from there as the city centre is car free. The staff were immediately incredibly welcoming and our room was ready early so we could drop our bags off straight away. The hotel is the perfect location for exploring Carcassonne as it really is right in the heart of it, with shops, cafes and restaurants as well as the entrance the the castle itself on the hotel doorstep.
We stayed in a family suite which was perfect for our family of four, with our 10 and 6 year old. There were two separate beds for the kids which we found really handy as many places only offer a sofa bed for children to share.
The hotel has a lovely courtyard garden with tables and chairs which made a perfect quiet space when we needed a break from exploring.
The breakfast was delicious and again the staff were friendly and welcoming. 3 out of 4 of us are vegetarian and there was lots of range for us all to enjoy - fussy kids included!
On the day we left, we checked out but were able to leave our bags with reception for a couple of hours until our shuttle to our next stop. They also were very helpful recommending a suitable supermarket for us to stop at for supplies later that day."
