Hôtel Montmorency & Spa

The location of the hotel is fabulous - literally just across the road from the entrance to the walled city. The hotel itself is beautiful, the room was modern opening onto a decked area with outdoor furniture and the air conditioning worked exceptionally well which was very important as the temperature was constantly 40 degrees for the 4 nights we stayed. The pool area is lovely and has lots of shaded areas if you don't want full sunshine and the staff were all very helpful and accommodating. There is a bus service (6 euros per person) from the airport which meets each inbound flight and drops off by the entrance to the walled city just a 2 minute walk away from the hotel. There were no taxis available at the airport so be sure to book in advance if you want one. We got a taxi back to the airport which cost 25 euros.

The location was superb for our needs, being just a couple of minutes walk from the Medieval City. The rooms were very comfortable, if small. We were each in deluxe double rooms but, if there had been two people in each room, it would have been a squash. The decor was eccentric and the colour scheme "unusual" i.e. wallpaper in Barbie pink and orange! It wouldn't have been my choice but it worked! Breakfast was certainly adequate and fresh and the apple juice supplied in a carafe was really good. and the garden terrace was a lovely place to sit, read and have a drink in the evenings, overlooked by the City.

Liked the location as it was a few minutes walk to the Narbonnaise Gate of the Medieval City. Liked being able to use the pool and bar of Hotel du Chateau across the road. This is where the reception to both hotels can be found. Very helpful and cheerful staff. We chose a room with a garden view which was quiet. We were able to visit the city in the early morning and again in the evenings when it was less busy. Caught the bus from the airport.....show the driver your hotel address and he tells you which stop you need. For the hotel it is Cite, stop 4- the last one. Then a short downhill walk to Hotl du Chateau and the reception.

Location is fantastic for a visit to Carcassonne. Pool area is lovely. Helpful staff. Relaxing place.

Lovely hotel with a great pool area just outside the city walls. Staff are very helpful and polite and the drinks are very reasonable.Air con was the best of anywhere we stayed on our trip
