Hôtel du Château

Carcassonne is one of those places in France that you have to see at least once in your life. It has one of those beautiful castles that makes you wonder how they lived before our time. Carcassonne is the city with 2 UNESCO world heritage sites: the Canal du Midi, classified in 1996, and the Medieval City in 1997.

The Medieval City is situated on the right bank of the Aude. It is a fortified city unlike any other in Europe, on account of its size and its state of preservation. Its history is marked by 2000 years of conquest and by the imprint of Catharism and the Crusades.

Opposite of this magnificent Medieval City is Hôtel du Château. The hotel proudly stands in a peaceful setting away from the bustle of the town, offering you tranquility after your visit to the Medieval City. Maybe this is one of the best places to be in summer when visiting Carcassonne. During those 2 – 3 months in summer Carcassonne gets so many tourists that you can easily be overwhelmed.
