Le Prieure was a good choice as a base for the region for wines and history. Yes, there is construction but it was not an interference to us for the hours they work. We had a large suite on the top floor overlooking the pool area for the bedroom and the priory from the sitting room. The bathrool was huge.... more

We were fortunate enough to obtain a reservation at this wonderful place for our first trip to Provence. It's located in Villeneuve, across the river from Avignon and is, in my opinion, too far to walk to Avignon, but it has free, easy to access parking, so it is a great base for exploring Avignon, Nimes, Arles, Gordes, Les Baux... more

We feel so fortunate to have found Le Prieure. It was just exactly what we wanted for our stay in Provence. Our room was large and spotlessly clean. Service was impeccable. Dinner was expensive but worth it. The village of Villeneuve is quaint and a perfect retreat from the city of Avignon. I hope to return sometime in the future. more

I keep returning to this gorgeous place. A real haven of peace. Ask for a room in one of the new buildings. They are very tastefully decorated and offer the perfect blend of antiquity and modern amenities. The restaurant offers fantastic food and impeccable service on top of that. Hard to believe it's not Michelin starred. The Prieuré will certainly... more

Looking for a nice hotel not too far from Avignon, we were attracted by the good reviews of Le Prieure and decided to book for two nights. Upon our arrival, just before entering the car park, we were taken aback by the constructionsite. When making the booking, we were not informed about the construction, going on nearly on-site. Fortunately, our... more

With a beautiful garden that makes the whole place smell of flowers, this hotel is wonderful in many ways. Hotel staff are friendly and helpful. We stayed for five nights in a suite that was spotless, spacious and stylish. Villeneuve is a great place to stay with many bars and restaurants and fabulous historic sites bwhilst being away from the... more

The hotel took on new owners and had a major refurb a couple of years ago I would strongly recommend you should ignore any reports prior to 2006/7. Located in the very attractive small town of Villeneuve Les Avignon it offers a great place to stay without the day tripper bustle of Avignon itself. Avignon is a great place to... more

My husband and I stayed at Le Prieure to visit our son who is studying in Avignon. After extensive reviews of surrounding hotels, we settled on Le Prieure. We loved the hotel. We spent the first night in the old section, but moved to one of the newer rooms for subsequent nights, in order to have a balcony. We preferred... more

We have stayed two nights in Le Prieure and we simply loved it!! Our room was a Superior Room in the building next to the pool. Before I booked a room, I read most reviews on this site and I think it is really important to know that you can discard negative older reviews on this site. Since a year... more
