Hotel Directory
La Mirande
Opposite the Palais des Papes, this former cardinal's palace from the 14th-century is all sophistication and attention to detail. The rooms are delightful, and the hotel's restaurant is one of the best in town. The sumptuous décor has been chosen with flair and imagination. Expensive, but this is luxury with charm and personality.

Cloitre St Louis
Cloitre St Louis is based around a converted 16th-century cloister of pale stone. Most of the sophisticated, contemporary rooms are in the modern wing, but try to bag one in the original monks' cells, which have a bit more character. The swimming pool is a blessing in summer.
