Hotel Les Agassins

This charming hotel is situated just outside of Avignon, in the Pigeonnier (Dovecote) part of Le Pontet. It is a neighbourhood that is a favourite haunt of birds, including darting, thieving Provencal magpies, otherwise known as the agasses, and their chicks, the agassins. The centre of Avignon is around 3 km from the establishment, whilst shops can be found roughly 5 km away. The local bus stop is just a 1-minute walk from the hotel, and nearby attractions include the Pope Palace in Avignon, which is around 5 km away, the Chateauneuf Du Pape winery, which is around 20 km away, and Marseille, which is approximately 95 km from the accommodation. This charming hotel has developed a style of living that is worthy of the location and its past, with its centenary park, its gardens and its swimming pool. With its comfortable sitting rooms, its bedrooms with flower-lined balconies, the old mordorée terracotta-tiled floors and the beautiful paintings which line the walls, it has the atmosphere of a great Mediterranean house. The 26-room establishment is fully air-conditioned and features facilities including a 24-hour reception and check-out service, a hotel safe, lift access, and room and laundry services. Guests arriving by car can leave their vehicles in the nearby car park. This hotel consists of 2 single rooms, 20 double/twin rooms and 4 junior suites. The guest rooms and suites are en suite with a shower, bath and hairdryer, and feature facilities such as double beds, a direct dial telephone, satellite/cable TV, a radio, a safe and a minibar. Furthermore, the accommodation units are fitted with individually regulated air conditioning and heating, as well as a balcony or terrace with beautiful flowers.
