Maison des Croisades

Tout parfait

After driving round inside the walled town (BIG mistake) we managed to find our way back to the Croisades where we booked in for 2 nights. Charming owners, couldn't have been more helpful & pleasant: "Need to park? No problem - just park behind our own cars on the wide pavement next to the hotel." Room was basic but well thought out, wall mounted small TV on which we watched the World Cup. Refurbished bathroom, small but spotless. One of the few places we stayed which had a dressing table area with good lighting, a convenient plug, mirror and hairdresser. Excellent breakfast and pleasant breakfast room/conservatory to eat in. Hotel is 5 mins from the walled town so great location.

Avant la réservation, j'avais contacté l'accueil pour faire part d'une préférence sur la chambre et demander des conseils sur les restaurants ouverts à cette période. Réponse dans la journée... Quand nous arrivons, accueil très pro en me disant que ma préférence a été entendue sur la chambre. Mise à disposition d'une carte de stationnement, autant dire que c'est un sacré avantage. Chambre très bien décorée et agréable, qui donne sur le jardin qui est très agréable le soir pour s'y poser un instant après une belle ballade dans la cité qui est à quelques pas. Je ne mets pas 5 étoiles car petit bémol sur la porte de la salle de bain peu intimiste et très brutante. Par contre, un grand bravo pour Félix qui est très attentionné, absolument adorable et qui va se plier en quatre pour faire plaisir à ses clients. C'est rarissime de nos jours. Un grand MERCI!!!!

We received a lovely welcome by the owner, along with drinks, but unfortunately, for us, the hotel was only opened up at 4:00 when we arrived walking from Vauvert at 3:00 and looking for a place to rest up. At least the anteroom was open so we had a seat. The room was very small with very little room for our suitcases and during the night the room was quite noisy from some late night guests in the hallway which was not appreciated. There was no street noise. The hotel is very close to the old town walls, just across the canal.

Très bon accueil mais hôtel décevant car pas du tout insonorisé ; on entend tout ce qui se passe dans les chambres à côté; nous on a dormi une nuit il faisait trés chaud et ce qu il manque c'est un frigo à disposition des clients avec des bouteilles glacées car l'eau de la salle de bain est tiède; la salle de bains est limite; la porte est coulissante et c'est pas génial ! et pour se doucher il faut tenir la poire, rien pour l'accrocher sinon literie agréable et propre, petit déjeuner convenable , voilà vraiment à réserver si rien d'autre !

I spent the weekend at Hotel des Croisades and found the rooms to be clean and the welcome warm. Rooms are basic but a decent size with tv, aircon and free wifi so provided everything needed for a short stay. I didn't have the best sleep whilst I was there as the walls to the room were very thin and I was woken up several times by the guests next door. There is also a cockeral nearby that likes crowing at sunrise, so if you are a light sleeper I would recommend ear plugs. I didn't have breakfast at the hotel but the garden area where it was served seemed nice. I decided to walk into a cafe in town which offered cheaper breakfast with better views. Everyone I met at the hotel was very friendly and helpful. Best of all is the location which is so convenient and offers everything close at hand, the walled town, boats into the camargue, boats to le grau du roi. Aigues Mortes is a fantastic town and this hotel offers a reasonably priced option for visiting it. Had it not been for the noisy neighbours the rating would have been higher!
