Our take
I recommend Hotel de la Cité to anyone who wants to sleep inside Carcassonne's medieval walls rather than look at them from outside. The château-style building, the gardens and the outdoor pool facing the Basilica of Saint-Nazaire make it a rare address. A spa and a kitchen built on regional dishes and homemade pastries complete the stay. A 9.0 score from more than 1,100 reviews matches the setting.
- ✓Explore the hotel's gardens, they offer peaceful spots and great views.
- ✓Take advantage of the outdoor pool, especially for the views of the Basilica.
- ✓Dine at the hotel's restaurant to sample regional dishes in a historic setting.

Why guests love itHotel de la Cité stands inside the fortified walls of medieval Carcassonne, in a building designed in the style of a château. For families that means waking up within the Cité itself, with the ramparts and lanes on the doorstep. The gardens and the outdoor pool, which looks towards the Basilica of Saint-Nazaire, give children space after a morning of sightseeing. There is a spa, and meals range from homemade pastries at breakfast to regional dishes. Guests rate this five-star 9.0.
