Where to stay in Carcassonne: the best areas

La Cité

Inside the walls there are a few hotels and guesthouses in stone buildings. They let you walk the citadel at night, when the visitors have gone, although car access is restricted and the streets are cobbled.

Bastide Saint-Louis

The lower town has most of the hotels, apartments and guesthouses, around Place Carnot and its shopping streets. Restaurants and the market are close at hand, and the Cité is a walk across the Pont Vieux.

Station and the Canal du Midi

By the railway station and the canal there are practical hotels for those arriving by train or passing through. It is a good base for walking or cycling along the canal bank.

Surroundings and vineyards

In nearby villages and wine estates there are rural houses, chambres d’hôtes and places with pools. They are quiet, for travelling by car and combining the visit with the Montagne Noire or the area’s castles.
