Maison Douce Arles

Absolutely a fabulous location. I much prefer the Boulevard than old town - so many local restaurants and cafes. The beds were incredibly comfortable with plenty of pillows and the sheets were soft. Wifi was excellent. Breakfast was outstanding. The owner served a wide assortment of local breads, cheeses, honey, fresh fruit, etc. The owner was very accommodating and we enjoyed the house dog. This property is a lovely Bed and Breakfast.

Booking lists TV's in rooms and ours had none. The property cannot be accessed between the hours of 1p - 4p when trying to check in. Arrive in Arles accordingly. That being said, I will definitely return to this property next time I am in Arles.

Very helpful staff, clean, lovely and fully refurbished old villa, right outside the city center. Very convenient for parking: there are a couple of private spaces inside the villa backyard or public spaces right outside. Very easy to reach by car. Rooms dimensions vary depending on what you book, but they are all very nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. Breakfast is super, lots of local, salty and sweet options. Beware of the doggo, he's super cute and loves ears rubs, don't be afraid if he barks when you enter the premises, he's very friendly. Many options for food, even late at night (for French standard) within walking distance.

Nothing really, just be aware of the entrance to the parking is on a backroad and may require some manoeuvres, nothing problematic if you're used to driving in Europe.

The location of the property is excellent, so is the hostess, Natalie. The breakfast table had many choices and a lovely Terrace to enjoy it with French music! We had a wonderful time and would love to go back again!  Thank you so much Natalie and give a kiss to Jimmy for me.

To find the parking: Find the black gate at the  north west corner of Rue Parmentiere and Rue Emile Fassi. (First right off Georges Clemenceau just after the Irish pub: see photo I posted). Pull up to the black gate and call Natalie to let you in.

The property is in a perfect location, at the edge of the old city, surrounded by shops and restaurants and ten minutes from the new Frank Gehry complex. I would call it a bed and breakfast rather than a hotel. it feels like you’re staying in someone’s home and the breakfast is wonderful. Our room was very spacious and comfortable as well as quiet, even though it faced a main street. The owner, Nathalie, takes very good care of her guests. Her rescue dog Jimi was a welcome addition, with the sweetest disposition. Highly recommend. Please note that a lot of restaurants and museums are closed at somewhat odd times: Mondays we’re used to, but Mondays AND Tuesdays?

Nothing. it was great

Beautiful house...great location across from old town and close to shops, restaurants and sites. Breakfast was great ..same everyday but always yumm... Nathalie was a great host ..there when you needed her ...loved our stay!..

Nothing really but if you are scared of dogs be aware her dog jimmy will be there to greet you... He was not a problem at all, (he in the background most of the time loyally following Nathalie around!) but just a heads up when she opens the door for you!...

This guesthouse is more like a B&B than a hotel. It's location is superb (but not super quiet), the owner is very accessible and knowledgeable about the town and the area, and the breakfasts were phenomenal, featuring locally made jams and other goodies. The yogurt was the best! Arles has a lot of history and is a great jumping off point to visit other towns in the area. The parking spot worked well and the room's A/C was fantastic, very appreciated after a hot day of walking around outdoors.

This is a very large house converted into an Inn, so guests with mobility problems might have to go slowly up the staircase for the rooms on the second or third floors. A small refrigerator in the room or access to a common refrigerator would have been a plus.

Lovely host and amazing breakfast! Nathalie and Jimi were welcoming with lots of tips and recommendations for in and around Arles. We looked forward to breakfast every morning, with local jams, seasonal fruits, coffee, fresh cheese, and all sorts of bread. Having private parking was a huge plus. Charmingly decorated, would recommend and we look forward to coming back again someday!

Nothing at all

This is a lovely guest house near the historic area of Arles. Our room was large and modern with a comfortable bed, good air conditioning and a good shower. Nathalie is a fantastic host. She was friendly and helpful and she served us a fabulous breakfast. She also gave us great recommendations for restaurants. So glad we stayed there.

This boutique hotel is very well located—walkable to the old city and easily accessible to the Carmargue. Excellent location. Nicolette was an exceptional host, and the mansion is beautiful. Our room was very large and the bathroom was a modern remodel. Absolutely wonderful place to stay, and a great value. I would definitely stay here again.

Very central location Host very attentive and knowledgeable Other guests were friendly The on-site parking was very convenient Breakfast was varied and nice The patio was a great setting for breakfast The Saturday market was right outside the house A nice thing to experience
