Nice hotel in good location with friendly staff, especially the English man who checked us in - he was very friendly, efficient and helpful and does the hotel credit. Our room was very nice with castle view, the breakfast was reasonable though blighted by a tempermental coffee machine and an agonisingly slow toaster (why are these so common in hotels?). A star deducted for the housekeeping which did not get to our room until 4 pm and failed to replenish toilet roll, face tissues or replace the tea bags we had used.The hotel pool was nice but I don't understand why it does not open until 10 am when many hotel guests prefer an early swim before breakfast or leaving for the day ahead. Given it is unstaffed and secure, why not open it at 6 or 7? Overall though, the hotel is recommended for its good location and overall good quality and helpful staff.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The location is fabulous with great views. Sadly this is the only 5 star aspect of this hotel. We had several problems, one a major safety issue which meant we had to occupy 4 different rooms in a 7 night stay. All of the issues really came down to poor overall management leading to poor customer service. Both Expedia and Hilton head office we very helpful to us but the staff were not really bothered.

Shambles

The whole experience was like faulty towers. I have never been to a Hilton with such shambolic staff! No room until 7pm and then given a room with 1bed for 4 people! Staff trying to give our bags left in secure left luggage to other guests even when they have a ticket and name on them! Finally provided with 2 rooms at9pm. Totally ruined our stay in carcassonne for the Tour de France!

Au niveau de la réception, du personnel et des repas (Buffet du petit déjeuner et souper le soir) rien à dire mais un bémol sur l'eau de la piscine trop froide en ce moment, la propreté de la chambre à revoir (vitre de la douche pas faite ainsi que la porte vitrée de la terrasse) et pour ce qui est des approvisionnements en produits et serviettes, pour un 5* un peu juste (1verre pour 2 dans la salle de bain 1 seule grande serviette chacun par contre on ne manquera de tapis de bain !!). Un emplacement extraordinaire avec la vue sur la cité c'est magnifique et la proximité avec la ville est très appréciée.

Très bon 4 étoiles mais nous cherchons la 5e. L'organisation du personnel est à revoir urgemment, le petit déjeuner industriel (rien de local, viennoiseries surgelées, œufs lyophilisés, charcuterie de super marché). Il ne faut pas avoir de problème, la direction n'apporte aucune solution (pourtant pour un problème simple de coffre non résolu après 10 jours malgré de multiples relances) En revanche, le personnel est très sympathique et fait au mieux, la chambre spacieuse et propre, idéalement situé, cadre très agréable, services multiples.

Découverte de Carcassonne

Découverte de Carcassonne, L’hôtel est très très bien placé, il permet de profiter de la ville basse et de la ville haute. Il manque juste un parking couvert sous l’hôtel mais celui de la ville à 300 mètres fait l’affaire. Bel hôtel complètement refait où le confort et la vue sur le pont et la ville haute offrent des conditions merveilleuses pour une étape découverte...

Séjour non concluant

Une baignoire qui ne fonctionne pas, le store au dessus de celle ci cassé, un petit déjeuné pas à la hauteur d’un 5 étoiles, une piscine intérieure soit disant chauffer mais qui ne l’était pas ( ressenti 19 degré pour un thermomètre indiquant 28 ) et ayant une capacité de 36 personnes mais n’ayant que 3 transats. Nous avons été déçu tout le long du séjour! Les seuls points positifs sont la propreté des lieux et l’hôtel donnant vu sur la cité médiévale.
