This is a property with character. Staff was professional, helpful and courteous. Located within the city wals, this was an ideal location to walk around, explore with easy access to shops and restaurants. Very Nice room on the second Floor with separate toilet and shower rooms. Lighting in the main room could be enhanced. Very good breakfast buffet with enough choice to please anybody. Very courteous breakfast room attendant. Quiet area as the mediëval city is virtually carfree. Highly recommended. We took the bus from the train station and a taxi back.

This is a historic hotel in the heart of Carcassonne. There are steps to the rooms. It was clean with an accommodating staff. We had a later arrival than planned and the parking attendant waited and got us and all our luggage to the hotel. We were able to access parking after hours also with a code. Breakfast was good. The bar area was lovely. I would stay here again.

Its a great place to stay when you want to visit Carcassone and be inside the walls. The hotel gardens was very nice. The only issue with the room was the carpet and the toilet (very low seat and toilet water splashed onto the seat when you flushed).

Our room 22 had a broken toilet and staff couldn’t care less about it … we only stayed 1 night so we survived but the hotel personnel was arrogant and dismissive about toilet not flushing down . Location was good, we didn’t have breakfast at the hotel . Garden and private garden seating area are lovely .

The Hotel le DonJon is an ideal base within the walls of the medieval city! The hotel is beautiful and the staff is very professional. David met us in the parking lot right outside the walls, and drove us and our luggage to the hotel. The fellow at the front desk was also excellent. ( I apologgize for not getting his name.)
