Hôtel Mignon

I recently stayed at Hotel Mignon in Avignon during my trip through France and it was a truly wonderful experience. The stay was very comfortable, the atmosphere was peaceful, and everything was perfectly clean and well maintained. One of the highlights was definitely the food — everything was absolutely delicious, and the coffee was exceptional. All the staff were incredibly kind and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. I felt warmly welcomed from the very beginning, which made my stay even more enjoyable. The location of the hotel was also great, perfect for exploring the city on foot and enjoying its historic charm and relaxed vibe. It was an unforgettable experience, and I truly hope to come back to this beautiful place soon!

Really a 3 star hotel. I couldn’t believe the reviews at first but they really are true, they charged 5 euros for one bottle of water. The room itself is nice but I didn’t know how to turn on the hair dryer so make sure to turn on all bathroom lights. The hotel is good if you’re on vacation or touring France and location is pretty decent as you can walk around from place to place. Pretty decent.

We booked accommodation at Hotel Mignon for our son to attend Ecole Internationale de Théâtre Jacques Lecoq and it was a perfect stay for him. Extremely convenient. The Hotel was extremely helpful pre visit and very accommodating during the visit. The breakfasts were lovely and the room very comfortable. An ideal spot. As parents, we are now looking forward to staying in future at Hotel Mignon and meeting the staff.

I absolutely loved my weekend stay at Hotel Mignon. It was such an amazing spot for the price! The owners were extremely welcoming and kind - and upon my arrival, I was generously upgraded from a single room to a double. Avignon is already a very walkable city, but Hotel Mignon’s location is perfect - just a five minute walk to the Pont and the Palais, and located on a street with lots of cute shops. My room was warm, the bed was comfortable, the shower was warm and spacious, and the view out onto the street was lovely. I didn’t take advantage of the hotel breakfast but it smelled great! It was nice and quiet pretty much 24/7! I highly recommend this spot, especially for solo travelers like myself!

Room was small, bathroom very small. Smell of damp and smoke. Floors and especially bathroom were not clean. Mattress was very worn and uncomfortable. Booked because of positive reviews but our actual experience was very different. Friendly welcome at reception.

We had a wonderful time at Hotel Mignon. We highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Avignon. The staff was extremely accommodating and friendly. The hotels architecture and design was impressive. The hotel dates back to the 13th century and was used as a shelter. The breakfast was delicious. We had homemade yogurt!. The room was clean and has AC. We would recommend it to all our close friends. We had a great time there. Magnifique!

It was a very nice and cosy place. I definitely recommend this hotel for a stay in Avignon. It is very well located, close to the historical places. |The staff is friendly and helpful.|The rooms are small but nicely decorated. The bathroom was also small but enough to my liking, and well equipped.

I had a lovely stay in Hotel Mignon at the end of March 2025.|I found that the hotel owners could not have been nicer or more friendly.|The room was very comfortable and clean and well decorated.|There was a lovely friendly, family style atmosphere which could be difficult to get in a larger, more impersonal hotel.|Unfortunately I had an accident on holidays requiring a visit to the accident and emergency hospital and the hotel owners both went out of their way to help me and went above and beyond in their level of kindness.|I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Wonderful hotel, at a great value. It's located within easy walking distance of the Place de l'Horloge, 10 minutes from the Palais des Papes, and maybe a 15 minute walk from the Avignon Center train station. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, even when I was faced with a booking error (on my part!). They went out of their way to help me, so nice! I'm giving four stars, only for two reasons. First, no elevator, but I knew that going in, so not really an issue. The other is the bathroom size, very tiny! This was really the one drawback for me, but as with all things that come up while traveling, you figure it out. Overall, a wonderful hotel, met my needs perfectly.

While this family-run hotel in a historic building is definitely "mignon" (cute, dainty), and one of the better values in Avignon if you're looking for a reasonable place to sleep, it has a couple caveats. 1) Do not come here if you have significantly more than the carry-on allowance of luggage. The stairs (elevator? what elevator? :P) are narrow and have tight hairpin turns, which are perfectly navigable with hand-baggage but probably no fun with more. 2) The bathroom in our particular room was, I'm pretty sure, a closet in the past, complete with a hanging rolling door that doesn't even attempt to latch or block sounds. It has now been tiled and plumbed to provide a toilet, sink, and small shower area that is at most 3' x 3' area and 6' high. If you are a larger person, or exceptionally tall, this will be a problem. 3) We had a bit of a problem with a strong eggy odor coming out of the shower drain trap in our room. It seems like it had dried out and thus plumbing smells were permeating the room, and the European AC was in no way capable of venting them out. Thankfully opening the window and strategically distributing some souvenir soap with Grasse fragrances that I'd purchased in Marseille fixed the problem. This is a one-star sort of place, so be prepared for amenities to be only a small bar of soap and a WiFi code that you have to keep entering every time your device has to re-connect to the network. I think I've memorized it by now, and I'm only staying for one night. Pros: 1) It is definitely lovingly maintained by the owners, who have a running collection of framed Festival d'Avignon posters in the stairwell, and who have decorated each room in a simple but appealing way. 2) It is extremely well situated - a very short walk to some excellent restaurants and about 5-10 min walk from the Palais des Papes. The owner provides a map of Avignon at check-in. 3) Again, a great value and much more personality than a chain hotel.

Today we stopped by this hotel to ask for some help in calling a taxi. "No" said the receptionist, "not unless you are staying here." Now we never will.
