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.)

Nice hotel, well located, but no amenities.
Well located, beautiful historic building. The room was quite basic, but fine. Site staff was very kind and friendly. But I missed the amenities that a 4-star hotel should have (toothbrush, shower cup....).

The two staff members we engaged with were incredibly kind, helpful and understanding, going beyond what would be expected in order to help us. Even though they were busy, they did not act as if they were busy, but gave us all the time we needed.
