Its a great place to stay when you want to visit Carcassone and be inside the walls. The hotel gardens was very nice. The only issue with the room was the carpet and the toilet (very low seat and toilet water splashed onto the seat when you flushed).

Our room 22 had a broken toilet and staff couldn’t care less about it … we only stayed 1 night so we survived but the hotel personnel was arrogant and dismissive about toilet not flushing down . Location was good, we didn’t have breakfast at the hotel . Garden and private garden seating area are lovely .

The Hotel le DonJon is an ideal base within the walls of the medieval city! The hotel is beautiful and the staff is very professional. David met us in the parking lot right outside the walls, and drove us and our luggage to the hotel. The fellow at the front desk was also excellent. ( I apologgize for not getting his name.)

We loved our stay. The garden room was cozy and private. The front desk gal walked me to the room and carried my backpack. So sweet! The breakfast was very good. I definitely recommend the Donjon❤️
