We use two hotels for our Christmas tours, both located within 100 metres of each other in the heart of Avignon.
Bristol Hotel
This traditional 3-star hotel is located on the treelined boulevard Cours Jean-Jaures in the heart of Avignon within the city walls. Facilities include cosy bar and double-glazed air conditioned rooms with private bath/shower, TV and telephone. Attached to the hotel (though run separately) is a typical French brasserie open throughout the day serving everything from a cup of coffee to full meals.
