My girlfriends and I took a trip to Provence to celebrate turning 55, On the advice of a friend, we signed up for the cooking class at La Mirande. It was the highlight of an outstanding trip. Jean-Claude the chef was wonderful, an outstanding host as well as entertaining and fun. The food was the best we had all week... more

This is a truly lovely hotel. Right slap bang in the centre. The staff were wonderful. The decoration beautiful and with real style and elegance. Not sure the food in the restaurant was quite up to the surroundings, but lovely to sit in the garden here or in the old restaurant. The rooms have everything you could wish for and... more

The hotel location, ambience and rooms have a great reputation and promised much. They certainly didn't let us down. More disappointing was the famed restraunt. We had planned a special meal with friends flying in from the UK. Despite 3 months notice that we had a vegetarian in our party, and 3 separate reminders to the concierge, meat based appetizers... more

My husband and I were traveling with my parents to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. We were using a new travel agent so naturally we were a little apprehensive about what properties she would pick for us. I had also read the reviews and that too made me a little nervous! Let me say, anyone who doesn't like this hotel... more

We stayed for five nights at La Mirande -- using Avignon as a jumping off point for day trips around Provence. This is a very charming, well located, service oriented property. The rooms are cute and well cared for, with large and very functional bathrooms -- my only complaint being that the bedroom could use a chest of drawers or... more

However the breakfast was very disappointing for €28 and I would highly recommend to anyone that they venture over to the main square for a fabulous and... more

We live in England and also have a house in Southern Spain. We drive to Spain once a year. In 2006, on the way back from Spain, we stopped off at "La Mirande". We thought it was the best hotel in the world at the time. Location, service, rooms, meals it had everything. We booked again this year. We booked... more

This place is a must stay if you are in need of a hotel in the Avignon area. The hotel is located near all of the major sites (right behind the Popes Palace) and not too far from the central train station if you are doing day trips. The staff provided exceptional service throughout our entire stay. Dinner at the... more

La Mirande is truly a hotel class of its own. Centrally located directly behind the Palais des Papes, this 700 year old building used to be home to Cardinals. This old town house retains its charm of old and is very tastefully decorated with fine art and has paid the most attention to detail. The service rendered by the hotel... more
