5/5 Excellent
"Great location, helpful and friendly staff, comfortable room"
A verified traveler stayed at Mercure Pont d'Avignon Centre
"Absolutely delightful stay at this boutique hotel. Location could not be better as it is right on the horlodge square, with plenty of restaurants within a block. Also only 3 minutes from the Palace of the Popes.
In addition they serve a terrific breakfast with many many choices
The one thing you need to know though is that it is built into an older building, and you have to go up and down stairs a lot to get to your room
But to offset that minor inconvenience, they have an ice maker- the first I have seen in France!

When I checked in I was told that breakfast was included but when I checked out I was charged for each day. The breakfast was rather minimal and the eggs were always cold. Otherwise ths is a very nive place to stay. "
