    The images on booking.com weren’t representative of what we found at the hotel. The description of the rooms said they were apartments with separate living rooms and bedrooms. They were not - just a bedroom with a small kitchen.

    Unfortunately they use their conservatory area for a smoking area. The smell and smoke is unable to escape, so the smell of tobacco is strong. I felt the cost of the room was because of the amazing view and for me a little over priced.

    The location is exceptional! I could look at the view all day. Dinner was very good

    Advance information about the parking would have been helpful. The hotel had taken payment a month previously and then said we had not paid. I had proof of the payment with me and this was accepted with good humour and an apology.

    The day we arrived, Sisteron was having a Venetian celebration, with a walking procession of people in full venetian costume through the town. The hotel's parking area (which is a public car park I believe, was closed, and housed an Italian market. We rode into it not realising this and were told very brusquely by market stall holders to go away. Thankfully a member of the hotel staff arrived and said we could park in an area just beyond the car park. The rooms looked out over the busy street, and before long the very beautiful and colourful (and slightly spooky) walking procession arrived, which was interesting, and the hotel window gave us a unique aerial view. Overall the hotel was good, staff friendly, and the location excellent. The Citadel was visible from the hotel room too.

    When you enter the hotel you have to pass through their smoking area and it carries into the hotel. Not great. Decor not in great condition and lot of dirty areas. Unidentified large insects on stairs. Lot of flies in restaurant and bar area

    Central location. Great views from front

    3rd floor, with old tiny lift, which we avoided! Very dated feel to everything, hard to sleep with constant banging and crashing in the night, due to very high winds( but that’s not the hotels fault!). Ok for stop over.

    Good location, parking outside. Lovely river view of Durance, and cliffs opposite.

    Nothing at all. Was ever so slightly overpriced. The window in my room didn’t close fully. There was a gap down one side but didn’t affect my stay.

    Superb location overlooking the Rock of Baumé and the Citadelle which were all lit up at night. Lovely gentleman checked me in and securely stored by bicycle. The room was huge and even had a small kitchenette. Shower was nice and warm. Bed was comfortable. My room looked up to the Citadelle. Breakfast was okay, the usual croissant, bread, jams, cakes, orange juice, coffee etc.

    In the middle of the summer, facing 38 degrees, having no airconditioning was quite the challenge. The room was facing south east, means it heated up insanely. It was impossible to sleep. Luckily it was quite windy at night so opening the windows helped a bit. Hotel was very simple, and you pay for the location not the room or facilities.

    Location is excellent. Right at the entrance of the town, everything was easy to reach walking. The view from the room was stunning, could not have been better.
