Hotel Relais du Postillon

We had a very enjoyable stay at Hotel Le Relais du Postillon. Position is 5 star and easy to walk to the Old Town and perfect for our overnight stop. We parked in the car park nearby and by paying with the hotel direct when you check out is cheaper than paying in the actual car park. We were given a warm welcome on arrival and upgraded to a lovely room overlooking the square on the fourth floor. The continental buffet breakfast was very good. I highly recommend this hotel.

This is a lovely 600-year-old old building and surprisingly quiet considering it's on a public square (and we were there on Saturday night). Breakfast was fine and it looked as if the restaurant/open air eating and drinking were also good. We had to book at short notice and were told that we'd need to stay in a small double room for one night but would then be moved to a larger room with twin beds... This sadly seems to have been untrue. We did manage to get a room with a spare sofa-bed on the second night, but only after making a fuss. So that was sad. I must commend the showers in both rooms , the only hotel showers I've every used that didn't leak onto the floor! Old-fashioned but great. Other things, not so good. The lift for instance has to be reached by several stairs on each floor, so it's not really accessible and it was hard to heave the luggage in. This is probably understandable in such a historic building but not ideal for the older guest... If you are fit, this is a really nice central but quiet place just minutes from the bus and train stations in one direction and the old town squares and Provencal market in the other. Not far either from the old port and the town beach underneath the old ramparts... But for someone with a slight back and knee injury like me it wasn't ideal.
