Hôtel de la Cité is built
inside the walls of Carcassonne, Europe’s largest fortified citadel, where
each stone is a mute witness to its romantic past. Set between two
historic landmarks, the Château Comtal and the gothic Saint-Nazaire
Basilica, the hotel is surrounded by glorious gardens. Built in 1909 on
the site of the Episcopalian Palace, it has recently undergone a major
renovation to restore it to its former glory. It remains today a favourite
hideaway for Europe’s elite. The hotel’s ground floor is listed by the
French National Conservation Trust. All rooms are individually decorated,
most overlook the gardens and ramparts, and several have balconies or
terraces. Ask for a room with a big tub and shower. At the Hotel de la Cite you will truly experience the feeling of
how they lived it up in the old days. This hotel is one of a kind. Do not
miss it!! |
