Fodor's Expert Review Le Calendal

5 rue Porte de Laure, Arles, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 13200, France

This hotel, in a prime Old Town location just steps from the Théâtre Antique, lacks nothing in the way of charm or service—indeed, it would be hard to find a more welcoming staff. Rooms are basic and range from small and serviceable to comfortably spacious. Some have tremendous views over the Roman amphitheater, and all have bright if small bathrooms. The steam room and whirlpool in the basement spa are welcome perks after a day on foot. The hotel has a café, and the garden and small terrace are pleasant places to enjoy lunch, dinner, or just a cup of tea or a glass of wine.

PROS

  • extremely central location
  • some rooms have stunning views of the arena
  • discounted parking for guests

CONS

  • rooms are basic and can be dark
  • breakfasts plentiful but standard-issue (and an extra fee)
