Pros:

We had a nice stay in this hotel, the location is perfect in the old city. However, the rooms and hotel are a bit dated and need renovations.

Gorgeous little pool in the old town.
Pros:

What a gem. All the history, amazing location and a gorgeous little pool while staying in the old town, was a truly unique experience. Make sure you check out the display in the lounge of all the previous guests, including Churchill and Buster Keaton.

Pros:

This is a phenomenal hotel and everything about it is five star. The staff go out of the way to make sure you have everything you need and nothing is too much for them. We ate at the Michelin starred restaurant and had the tasting menu which was fantastic. The staff went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable the next day and had a great experience. Highly recommend.

Pros:

What a fantastic hotel! It's beautiful, the gardens and pool are lovely and all the staff were friendly and helpful.

Room was large and airy, and the bed was very comfortable. Fantastic shower. Despite being next to the Basilica no noise got into the room, even when the bells rang!

The food in La Barbacane was delicious.

Excellent location, great as a base to explore Carcassonne on foot.

A beautiful hotel inside the walled city of Carcassonne. Wished we’d added another night. To our stay. Comfortable beds and the breakfast was excellent.

Expensive but would stay again.
Pros:

Lovely 4 nights. The room could have used a deep clean, the phone did not work properly in the room. We requested fresh towels as our room had not been cleaned and waited over an hour for them! I think the food/breakfast is too expensive for what you get. Due to these reasons I feel it is a bit overpriced. The pool area was lovely. The surroundings are fabulous and central location is perfect!

Pros:

Property is beautiful. Service and amenities not what I would expect from this quality hotel. Empty soap dispenser in shower. Waited over half an hour for a drink at the bar. Breakfast buffet ran out of items with an hour left to go and no restocking. Tissue from previous guest on floor of our room.

Good stay, and the space needs a major upgrad
Pros:

The hotel is located in a special site in Carcassone, both as the UNESCO landmark and for the church it sits next to.

However, the super antiquated beds (mine sank in the middle), the antiquated (and in some cases broken) furniture, barely working AC, and mold and dirt in the cracks of the shower and around the AC unit make it not comparable with its pricing.

This is my second stay. The first was with a group for which we had a discount. And, I wouldn’t stay again until upgrades have been completed.

Beautiful hotel on the walls of the city
Pros:

Loved our stay at this hotel! It was a former bishops palace right next to the cathedral and right by the rampart walls. Absolutely beautiful location. We had a room in the building across the way. Large room with view of the church. Very quiet though! Super comfortable bed. We had dinner there on the terrace and it was so good with a great view! Only issue was that our shower wouldn’t drain. Other than that it was perfect!

Pros:

This beautiful Bastide is worth a visit and as it’s also small, staying at the L’Hotel de Cité was an oasis all in itself. I would go back just to stay at the hotel. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Someone quickly appeared when we parked as it was unusually hot to pick us up and whisk us to the hotel without us even requesting it. I can’t tell you how grateful I am to this person as we had our small frenchie with us and they do not do well in the heat. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous with wonderful gardens and lounge areas. The spa looked nice (will need to book that next time too) and the onsite restaurant was a nice added perk although you can walk the entire village quite easily with many options for food. The boulangerie right next door has the best ever chocolatines (also worth going back for). I would highly recommend a stay here.

Pros:

This is a very nice hotel in the walled city. Views are beautiful and the food is very good. Service was nice but a bit unorganized. We had some trouble with our room so they upgraded us to a suite. This is an old property (formerly the bishops house) and needs some upgrades like carpet and paint, par for the course with these older properties.

Pros:

Charming "old world" hotel inside the medieval walled city. Front desk staff was extremely helpful. Enjoyed dinner at the hotel one night. Nice breakfast buffet. Loved sitting outside on the sofas with a cold glass of wine in the afternoon.

Pros:

Great service at reception, weight staff was outstanding, only negative is the shower and tower tub were awkward to use dangerous to get in and out had to be very very careful and I am relatively young and agile.
